3 Feb, 1276 BC
max: 22:15 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.06; Saros 42)
In this extremely marginal eclipse, the Moon barely clipped the edge of the Earth's penumbral shadow. This caused a microscopic darkening of just 6% of the Moon's disc for 1 hour and 9 minutes, which was essentially impossible to see.
   
15 Feb, 1258 BC
max: 06:01 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse

Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.72; Saros 42)
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 47 minutes.
