剪报往往是成对出现的。一年两次，在持续约34天的月食季节，太阳、月亮和地球几乎可以排成一线。然后，月全食和月全食相隔14天多一点，形成月食和日食。但在一个月食季节，新月和满月的排列足够接近，从而产生一对月全食（或月全食和日环食），这种情况非常罕见。更常见的是，日偏食是任何月食季节的一部分。事实上，在2024年的最后一个月食季节，出现了这对相隔两周的日食：9月18日的月偏食和10月2日的日环食。这些延时合成图像是在英国萨默塞特郡（左）和地球拉帕努伊岛拍摄的。在2025年的月食季节中，3月14日将出现月全食，3月29日将出现日偏食，9月8日将出现月全食，9月21日将出现日偏食。

clipses tend to come in pairs. Twice a year, during an eclipse season that lasts about 34 days, Sun, Moon, and Earth can nearly align. Then the full and new phases of the Moon, separated by just over 14 days, create a lunar and a solar eclipse. But only rarely is the alignment at both new moon and full moon phases during a single eclipse season close enough to produce a pair with both total (or a total and an annular) lunar and solar eclipses. More often, partial eclipses are part of any eclipse season. In fact, the last eclipse season of 2024 produced this fortnight-separated eclipse pair: a partial lunar eclipse on 18 September and an annular solar eclipse on 2 October. The time-lapse composite images were captured from Somerset, UK (left) and Rapa Nui planet Earth. The 2025 eclipse seasons will see a total lunar eclipse on 14 March paired with a partial solar eclipse on 29 March, and a total lunar eclipse on 8 September followed by a partial solar eclipse on 21 September.
