Answer:

Through the saros cycle, we will be able to predict that there will be a solar eclipse after approximately 18 years,  11 days, and 8 hours, at a different location on the planet.

Explanation:

Since the saros cycle responds to a complete repetition of the relatively similar geometry of the sun, earth, and the moon, at half the duration of the cycle, which is approximately 9 years, and 5 days, a lunar eclipse can be predicted to occur.
