You can see the solar eclipses or the combined eclipse catalog by clicking "Solar Eclipses" or "All Eclipses" in the top-right tabs.

Lunar Eclipses, 0940–0921 BC

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).
10 Jan, 0940 BC
max: 12:22 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.78; Saros 48)
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 78% 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 59 minutes.
   
7 Jun, 0940 BC
max: 16:26 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.19; Saros 15)
In this extremely marginal eclipse, the Moon barely clipped the edge of the Earth's penumbral shadow. This caused a microscopic darkening of just 19% of the Moon's disc for 2 hours and 12 minutes, which was essentially impossible to see.
   
7 Jul, 0940 BC
max: 05:24 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.49; Saros 53)
This very subtle penumbral eclipse was essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it lasted 3 hours and 18 minutes, just 49% of the Moon's disc was in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow).
1 Dec, 0940 BC
max: 13:09 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.15; Saros 20)
At maximum eclipse, a small bite out of the Moon should have been visible. The eclipse lasted for 1 hour and 23 minutes, with just 15% of the Moon in shadow at maximum.
   
27 May, 0939 BC
max: 17:28 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.48; Saros 25)
The Earth's shadow on the moon was clearly visible in this eclipse, with 48% of the Moon in shadow; the partial eclipse lasted for 2 hours and 40 minutes.
   
21 Nov, 0939 BC
max: 04:43 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.35; Saros 30)
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 19 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 35% 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 24 minutes in total.
   
16 May, 0938 BC
max: 19:57 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.74; Saros 35)
A dramatic total eclipse lasting 1 hour and 44 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 50 minutes in total.
   
10 Nov, 0938 BC
max: 17:07 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.09; Saros 40)
A shallow total eclipse saw the Moon in relative darkness for 44 minutes and 42 seconds. The Moon was 9% of its diameter into the Earth's umbral shadow, and should have been significantly darkened. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 22 minutes in total.

29 Oct, 0937 BC
max: 22:40 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.79; Saros 50)
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 79% 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 4 hours and 14 minutes.
   
26 Mar, 0936 BC
max: 13:27 UT

8 Sep, 0935 BC
max: 08:13 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.08; Saros 32)

max: 16:39 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.99; Saros 37)
