This catalog has a page for every lunar eclipse from 2000 BC to 3000 AD, 12,064 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 eclipses or the combined eclipse catalog by clicking "Solar Eclipses" or "All Eclipses" in the top-right tabs.

Lunar Eclipses, 0981–1000 AD

The following chart shows the position where the Moon is directly overhead at the maximum times of the total (in blue) and partial (in red) lunar eclipses (penumbral eclipses are omitted). Each eclipse will be visible approximately from the half of the Earth centred on that point. Use the zoom controls on the left to zoom in and out; hover over a marker to see the area of visibility and summary information on that eclipse.

The interactive map is currently not available.

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).
22 Apr, 0981 AD
max: 02:21 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.17; Saros 105)
At maximum eclipse, a small bite out of the Moon should have been visible. The eclipse lasted for 1 hour and 41 minutes, with just 17% of the Moon in shadow at maximum. 		   
16 Oct, 0981 AD
max: 03:06 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.36; Saros 110)
The Earth's shadow on the moon was clearly visible in this eclipse, with 36% of the Moon in shadow; the partial eclipse lasted for 2 hours and 4 minutes. 		   
12 Mar, 0982 AD
max: 13:29 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.65; Saros 77)
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 45 minutes. 		   
6 Sep, 0982 AD
max: 04:41 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.72; Saros 82)
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 52 minutes. 		   
1 Mar, 0983 AD
max: 23:46 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.06; Saros 87)
A shallow total eclipse saw the Moon in relative darkness for 37 minutes and 36 seconds. The Moon was 6% 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. 		   
26 Aug, 0983 AD
max: 08:59 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.96; Saros 92)
The Moon was almost covered by the Earth's shadow in a very deep partial eclipse, which lasted 3 hours and 26 minutes. With 96% of the Moon in shadow at maximum eclipse, this was quite a memorable event. 		   
19 Feb, 0984 AD
max: 15:04 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.38; Saros 97)
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 21 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 38% 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. 		   
14 Aug, 0984 AD
max: 09:08 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.33; Saros 102)

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 46 minutes in total. 		   
8 Feb, 0985 AD
max: 06:55 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.09; Saros 107)
A tiny bite out of the Moon may have been visible at maximum, though just 9% of the Moon was shadowed in a partial eclipse which lasted for 1 hour and 7 minutes. A shading across the moon from the Earth's penumbral shadow should have been visible at maximum eclipse. 		   
3 Aug, 0985 AD
max: 12:33 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.01; Saros 112)
While technically a partial eclipse, the Moon barely clipped the Earth's umbral shadow, which may have been very difficult to observe in practice; though a shading across the moon from the Earth's penumbral shadow should have been visible at maximum eclipse. The partial eclipse lasted for 19 minutes and 30 seconds. 		   
30 Dec, 0985 AD
max: 03:23 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.79; Saros 79)
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 9 minutes.

14 Jun, 0987 AD
max: 08:45 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.66; Saros 94)
A dramatic total eclipse lasting 1 hour and 36 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 30 minutes in total. 		   
8 Dec, 0987 AD
max: 03:42 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.46; Saros 99)
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 34 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 46% 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.
