A penumbral eclipse of the Moon occurred on 14 April, 1475 BC UT Old Style, with maximum eclipse at 14:49 UT. In this extremely marginal eclipse, the Moon barely clipped the edge of the Earth's penumbral shadow. This caused a microscopic darkening of just 13% of the Moon's disc for 1 hour and 37 minutes, which was essentially impossible to see.

The penumbral eclipse lasted for 1 hour and 37 minutes. Maximum eclipse was at 14:49:12 UT.
