This catalog has a page for every eclipse from 2000 BC to 3000 AD, 23,962 in all, shown in groups of 20 years at a time. You can go to any eclipse by selecting the milennium, century and 20-year period from the navigation tabs above; then click on an eclipse's date in the list below to to go its page.

You can see the solar or lunar eclipses separately by clicking "Solar Eclipses" or "Lunar Eclipses" in the top-right tabs.

(umbral mag. 1.41; Saros 23)
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 30 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 41% of its diameter inside the Earth's umbral shadow. The visual effect of this depends on the state of the Earth's atmosphere, but the Moon may have been stained a deep red colour. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 44 minutes in total.

Annular Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.00; Saros 16)
A large annular eclipse covered over 99% of the Sun, creating a dramatic spectacle for observers in only an extremely narrow strip; however, it was fleeting, lasting a very brief 2 seconds at the point of maximum eclipse.
   
14 Mar, 1483 BC
max: 21:42 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.97; Saros 28)
The Moon approached within 2% of the Earth's umbral shadow at maximum eclipse; 97% of the Moon's disc was partially shaded by the Earth, with the overall eclipse lasting 4 hours and 15 minutes. While less dramatic than a partial eclipse (as no part of the Moon was in complete shadow), a shading across the Moon should have been readily visible to observers.
23 Aug, 1483 BC
max: 22:51 UT
Annular Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.96; Saros 21)
The Sun was 96% covered in a moderate annular eclipse, lasting 4 minutes and 37 seconds and covering a path up to 147 km wide.

max: 23:16 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.17; Saros 33)
At maximum eclipse, a small bite out of the Moon should have been visible. The eclipse lasted for 1 hour and 32 minutes, with just 17% of the Moon in shadow at maximum.
2 Feb, 1482 BC
max: 13:34 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.97; Saros 0)
At maximum eclipse, 97% of the Moon's disc was partially shaded by the Earth, which caused a slight shadow gradient across its disc; this subtle effect may have been visible to careful observers. No part of the Moon was in complete shadow. The eclipse lasted 4 hours and 40 minutes overall.
   
16 Feb, 1482 BC
max: 21:23 UT
Total Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.05; Saros 26)
A dramatic total eclipse plunged the Sun into darkness for 4 minutes and 1 second at maximum, creating an amazing spectacle for observers in a broad path up to 170 km wide.
29 Jul, 1482 BC
max: 05:06 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.04; Saros 5)
A tiny bite out of the Moon may have been visible at maximum, though just 4% of the Moon was shadowed in a partial eclipse which lasted for 42 minutes and 54 seconds. A shading across the moon from the Earth's penumbral shadow should have been visible at maximum eclipse.
   
13 Aug, 1482 BC
max: 00:40 UT
Annular Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.94; Saros 31)
A small annular eclipse covered only 94% of the Sun in a very broad path, 256 km wide at maximum, and lasted 7 minutes and 27 seconds.
22 Jan, 1481 BC
max: 13:07 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.17; Saros 10)
A shallow total eclipse saw the Moon in relative darkness for 1 hour and 5 minutes. The Moon was 17% of its diameter into the Earth's umbral shadow, and should have been significantly darkened. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 39 minutes in total.
   
6 Feb, 1481 BC
max: 13:39 UT
Partial Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.95; Saros 36)
This was a deep partial eclipse, with 95% of the Sun covered for viewers closest to the center. This provided a significant spectacle for those who saw it.
17 Jul, 1481 BC
max: 21:17 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.32; Saros 15)
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 18 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 32% of its diameter inside the Earth's umbral shadow. The visual effect of this depends on the state of the Earth's atmosphere, but the Moon may have been stained a deep red colour. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 26 minutes in total.
   
1 Aug, 1481 BC
max: 01:00 UT
Partial Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.88; Saros 41)
This was a deep partial eclipse, with 88% of the Sun covered for viewers closest to the center. This provided a significant spectacle for those who saw it.
27 Dec, 1481 BC
max: 16:21 UT
Annular Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.97; Saros 8)
A large annular eclipse covered 97% of the Sun, creating a dramatic spectacle for observers in a very broad path, 611 km wide at maximum; it lasted 2 minutes and 20 seconds at the point of maximum eclipse.
