AkaSci 🛰️The following graphic shows a heatmap of the density of total solar eclipse paths over Earth during the 5000-year period between 2,000 BCE and 3,000 CE. Lighter shades mean higher density.
The bias towards the northern hemisphere is clear. The values for longitude points are slightly smeared because the graph has not been corrected for the variance in rotational speed of the Earth.
On average, a given spot on Earth experiences a total eclipse every 366 years.
