Statistics

How special is 2026?

2026 has 13 full moons. That happens in 74 of 201 years between 1900 and 2100, roughly every third year, last in 2023, next in 2028. The reason: full moon to full moon takes 29.5 days, but a year has 365. About eleven days are left over each year, and every two to three years that is enough for a thirteenth.

Eclipses: 4 (2 solar, 2 lunar), 2 of them total. The average is 4.5 a year.

Mercury turns retrograde 3 times and moves backwards on 68 days, against an average of 70.

Mars is not retrograde on a single day in 2026. That happens in 84 of 201 years, because Mars only turns backwards about every 26 months.
