The primary purpose of the Fifty Year Canon of Solar Eclipses: 1986-2035 is to provide a reference of moderately detailed eclipse predictions and maps for use by the astronomical community. Such a work should be useful in identifying the most favorable eclipse opportunities, taking into account the celestial mechanics and geographic locations which are paramount in addressing the scientific goals, the issue of funding and the logistical problems of organizing an expedition to remove destinations. The secondary purpose is to provide a general reference on future eclipses for teachers, students, amateur astronomers and interested laymen. The solar eclipse is unquestionably the most spectacular celestial phenomenon visible to the naked eye. As such, eclipses generate a great deal of interest among the general public and news media. Naturally, questions arise as to where a particular eclipse will be visible from, and when the next eclipse occurs.
