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.

All Eclipses, 1581–1600 AD

Note that eclipse dates are specified relative to UT. You have not selected a timezone for eclipse timings, so all times are shown in UT (essentially GMT).
5 Jan, 1581 AD
max: 06:47 UT
Partial Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.81; Saros 105)
This was a deep partial eclipse, with 81% of the Sun covered for viewers closest to the center. This provided a significant spectacle for those who saw it. 		   
19 Jan, 1581 AD
max: 21:22 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.33; Saros 117)
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 25 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 33% 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 47 minutes in total.
30 Jun, 1581 AD
max: 22:04 UT
Partial Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.95; Saros 110)

16 Jul, 1581 AD
max: 04:11 UT

(umbral mag. 1.15; Saros 122)

Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.72; Saros 102)
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 72% of the Moon's disc was partially shaded by the Earth (none of it was in total shadow), which caused a gentle shadow gradient across its disc at maximum; the eclipse as a whole lasted 3 hours and 40 minutes. 		   
11 Sep, 1597 AD
max: 14:59 UT
Annular Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.98; Saros 128)
A large annular eclipse covered 98% of the Sun, creating a dramatic spectacle for observers in a narrow path at most 57 km wide; it lasted 1 minute and 35 seconds at the point of maximum eclipse.
25 Sep, 1597 AD
max: 13:38 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.09; Saros 140)
In this extremely marginal eclipse, the Moon barely clipped the edge of the Earth's penumbral shadow. This caused a microscopic darkening of just 9% of the Moon's disc for 1 hour and 27 minutes, which was essentially impossible to see.
21 Feb, 1598 AD
max: 05:33 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.99; Saros 107)
The Moon was almost covered by the Earth's shadow in a very deep partial eclipse, which lasted 3 hours and 27 minutes. With 99% of the Moon in shadow at maximum eclipse, this was quite a memorable event. 		   
7 Mar, 1598 AD
max: 10:08 UT
Total Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.02; Saros 133)
The Sun was darkened for 1 minute and 33 seconds by a dramatic total eclipse covering a path up to 156 km wide. This was a sight worth seeing.
16 Aug, 1598 AD
max: 18:45 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.14; Saros 112)
A shallow total eclipse saw the Moon in relative darkness for 54 minutes and 12 seconds. The Moon was 14% of its diameter into the Earth's umbral shadow, and should have been significantly darkened. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 15 minutes in total. 		   
31 Aug, 1598 AD
max: 18:46 UT
Annular Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.94; Saros 138)
A small annular eclipse covered only 94% of the Sun in only an extremely narrow strip, and lasted just moments.
26 Jan, 1599 AD
max: 15:35 UT
Partial Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.80; Saros 105)
A moderate partial eclipse, with 80% of the Sun covered for viewers closest to the center, created an interesting spectacle. 		   
10 Feb, 1599 AD
max: 05:12 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.37; Saros 117)
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 28 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 37% 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 48 minutes in total.
22 Jul, 1599 AD
max: 04:43 UT
Partial Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.81; Saros 110)
This was a deep partial eclipse, with 81% of the Sun covered for viewers closest to the center. This provided a significant spectacle for those who saw it. 		   
6 Aug, 1599 AD
max: 11:40 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.28; Saros 122)
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 13 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 28% 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 23 minutes in total.
16 Jan, 1600 AD
max: 05:10 UT
Annular Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.00; Saros 115)
A large annular eclipse covered over 99% of the Sun, creating a dramatic spectacle for observers in a narrow path at most 11 km wide; it lasted a brief 14 seconds at the point of maximum eclipse. 		   
30 Jan, 1600 AD
max: 06:23 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.14; Saros 127)
At maximum eclipse, a small bite out of the Moon should have been visible. The eclipse lasted for 1 hour and 28 minutes, with just 14% of the Moon in shadow at maximum.
10 Jul, 1600 AD
max: 12:34 UT
Total Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.02; Saros 120)
A dramatic total eclipse plunged the Sun into darkness for 2 minutes and 8 seconds at maximum, creating an amazing spectacle for observers in a path up to 84 km wide. 		   
26 Jul, 1600 AD
max: 01:11 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.80; Saros 132)
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 80% of the Moon's disc was partially shaded by the Earth (none of it was in total shadow), which caused a gentle shadow gradient across its disc at maximum; the eclipse as a whole lasted 3 hours and 58 minutes.
20 Dec, 1600 AD
max: 02:29 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.65; Saros 99)
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 65% of the Moon's disc was partially shaded by the Earth (none of it was in total shadow), which caused a gentle shadow gradient across its disc at maximum; the eclipse as a whole lasted 3 hours and 28 minutes.
