The solar eclipses of 1935 Jan 05, 05:35 UT
JD 2427807.733

The eclipse of 1935 Jan 05 is partial and very small, the maximum magnitude only 0.001. Solar Eclipses: 1901 to 2000 (Fred Espenak)

The solar eclipses of 1935 Feb 03, 16:16 UT JD 2427837.178 The eclipse is partial, magnitude 0.728, and 29.45 days (about one synodic month) later than the eclipse of Jan 05.   The solar eclipses of 1935 Jun 30, 19:59 UT JD 2428014.333 The magnitude of this partial eclipse is 0.337. Since Jan 05, the ascending node of the Moon hase moved from 302.02° to 292.67° in ecliptic longitude (retrograde). As seen from the Earth, the synodic period T of the Sun (T1=365,24 d) and the ascending node of the Moon (the nodical regression cycle takes 18.61 years, T2=18.61*365.24 d) can be computed from 1 / T = 1/T1 + 1/T2 T = 346.6 d This period (346.6 days) is called eclipse year  (or draconitic year), 18.6 days short of a solar year, and equal to the time required by the Sun to complete one revolution with respect to the same lunar node. There are two eclipse seasons of 173.3 days each year.
