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, 1841–1860 AD

22 Jan, 1841 AD
max: 17:24 UT
Partial Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.03; Saros 109)
With only 3% of the Sun covered at maximum eclipse, this was a very marginal eclipse at best, and rather uninteresting.
   
6 Feb, 1841 AD
max: 02:07 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.72; Saros 121)
A dramatic total eclipse lasting 1 hour and 38 minutes plunged the full Moon into deep darkness, as it passed right through the centre of the Earth's umbral shadow. While the visual effect of a total eclipse is variable, the Moon may have been stained a deep orange or red colour at maximum eclipse. This was a great spectacle for everyone who saw it. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 32 minutes in total.
21 Feb, 1841 AD
max: 11:03 UT

18 Jul, 1841 AD
max: 14:25 UT
Partial Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.66; Saros 114)
A moderate partial eclipse, with 66% of the Sun covered for viewers closest to the center, created an interesting spectacle.
   
2 Aug, 1841 AD
max: 10:00 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.67; Saros 126)
A dramatic total eclipse lasting 1 hour and 45 minutes plunged the full Moon into deep darkness, as it passed right through the centre of the Earth's umbral shadow.

The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 55 minutes in total.
16 Aug, 1841 AD
max: 21:20 UT

Total Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.05; Saros 127)

9 Apr, 1857 AD
max: 09:13 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.45; Saros 139)
This very subtle penumbral eclipse was essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it lasted 3 hours and 21 minutes, just 45% of the Moon's disc was in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow).
4 Sep, 1857 AD
max: 05:22 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.21; Saros 106)
This very subtle penumbral eclipse was essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it lasted 2 hours and 8 minutes, just 21% of the Moon's disc was in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow).
   
18 Sep, 1857 AD
max: 05:35 UT
Annular Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.97; Saros 132)

3 Oct, 1857 AD
max: 14:56 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.66; Saros 144)
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 66% 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.
27 Feb, 1858 AD
max: 22:14 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.33; Saros 111)
The Earth's shadow on the moon was clearly visible in this eclipse, with 33% of the Moon in shadow; the partial eclipse lasted for 2 hours and 7 minutes.
   
15 Mar, 1858 AD
max: 12:05 UT
Annular Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.00; Saros 137)
A large annular eclipse covered over 99% of the Sun, creating a dramatic spectacle for observers in only a tiny path, just 2 km wide; however, it was fleeting, lasting a very brief 2 seconds at the point of maximum eclipse.
24 Aug, 1858 AD
max: 14:20 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.47; Saros 116)
The Earth's shadow on the moon was clearly visible in this eclipse, with 47% of the Moon in shadow; the partial eclipse lasted for 2 hours and 33 minutes.
   
7 Sep, 1858 AD
max: 14:09 UT
Total Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.02; Saros 142)
The Sun was darkened for 1 minute and 50 seconds by a dramatic total eclipse covering a path up to 85 km wide. This was a sight worth seeing.
3 Feb, 1859 AD
max: 01:22 UT
Partial Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.01; Saros 109)
With only 1% of the Sun covered at maximum eclipse, this was a very marginal eclipse at best, and rather uninteresting.
   
17 Feb, 1859 AD
max: 10:43 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.69; Saros 121)
A dramatic total eclipse lasting 1 hour and 37 minutes plunged the full Moon into deep darkness, as it passed right through the centre of the Earth's umbral shadow. While the visual effect of a total eclipse is variable, the Moon may have been stained a deep orange or red colour at maximum eclipse. This was a great spectacle for everyone who saw it. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 32 minutes in total.
4 Mar, 1859 AD
max: 18:54 UT
Partial Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.25; Saros 147)
A small partial eclipse barely darkened the Sun. With just 25% of the Sun covered for viewers closest to the center, this was of limited interest.
29 Jul, 1859 AD
max: 21:56 UT
Partial Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.52; Saros 114)
A moderate partial eclipse, with 52% of the Sun covered for viewers closest to the center, created an interesting spectacle.
   
13 Aug, 1859 AD
max: 16:34 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.81; Saros 126)
A dramatic total eclipse lasting 1 hour and 47 minutes plunged the full Moon into deep darkness, as it passed right through the centre of the Earth's umbral shadow. While the visual effect of a total eclipse is variable, the Moon may have been stained a deep orange or red colour at maximum eclipse. This was a great spectacle for everyone who saw it. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 56 minutes in total.
28 Aug, 1859 AD
max: 05:01 UT
Partial Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.53; Saros 152)
A moderate partial eclipse, with 53% of the Sun covered for viewers closest to the center, created an interesting spectacle.
23 Jan, 1860 AD
max: 00:27 UT
Annular Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.92; Saros 119)
A small annular eclipse covered only 92% of the Sun in a very broad path, 719 km wide at maximum, and lasted 6 minutes and 7 seconds.
   
7 Feb, 1860 AD
max: 02:29 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.81; Saros 131)
The Moon was strikingly shadowed in this deep partial eclipse which lasted 2 hours and 54 minutes, with 81% of the Moon in darkness at maximum.
18 Jul, 1860 AD
max: 14:26 UT
Total Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.05; Saros 124)
A dramatic total eclipse plunged the Sun into darkness for 3 minutes and 39 seconds at maximum, creating an amazing spectacle for observers in a broad path up to 198 km wide.
   
1 Aug, 1860 AD
max: 17:24 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.45; Saros 136)
The Earth's shadow on the moon was clearly visible in this eclipse, with 45% of the Moon in shadow; the partial eclipse lasted for 2 hours and 32 minutes.
28 Dec, 1860 AD
max: 03:33 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.10; Saros 103)
In this extremely marginal eclipse, the Moon barely clipped the edge of the Earth's penumbral shadow. This caused a microscopic darkening of just 10% of the Moon's disc for 1 hour and 29 minutes, which was essentially impossible to see.
