Lunar Eclipses in Saros Series 85

This page lists all the lunar eclipses in saros series 85. The series contains 76 eclipses, occurring over 1352 years.

This series is partnered with solar Saros series 92.

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. Note that we only have mapping data for eclipses from year 1 AD, so any eclipses prior to that date will be missing. 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).
2 Aug, 0104 BC
max: 07:02 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.04; Saros 85)

max: 14:29 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.15; Saros 85)
In this extremely marginal eclipse, the Moon barely clipped the edge of the Earth's penumbral shadow. This caused a microscopic darkening of just 15% of the Moon's disc for 1 hour and 52 minutes, which was essentially impossible to see.

Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.10; Saros 85)
At maximum eclipse, a small bite out of the Moon should have been visible. The eclipse lasted for 1 hour and 14 minutes, with just 10% of the Moon in shadow at maximum.
   
7 Jul, 1069 AD
max: 03:50 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.96; Saros 85)
The Moon approached within 4% of the Earth's umbral shadow at maximum eclipse; 96% of the Moon's disc was partially shaded by the Earth, with the overall eclipse lasting 4 hours and 18 minutes. While less dramatic than a partial eclipse (as no part of the Moon was in complete shadow), a shading across the Moon should have been readily visible to observers.
   
18 Jul, 1087 AD
max: 10:54 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.82; Saros 85)
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 82% 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 3 minutes.
   
28 Jul, 1105 AD
max: 17:59 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.69; Saros 85)
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 69% 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.
   
9 Aug, 1123 AD
max: 01:09 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.57; Saros 85)
This very subtle penumbral eclipse was essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it lasted 3 hours and 29 minutes, just 57% of the Moon's disc was in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow).
   
19 Aug, 1141 AD
max: 08:24 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.45; Saros 85)
This very subtle penumbral eclipse was essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it lasted 3 hours and 10 minutes, just 45% of the Moon's disc was in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow).
   
30 Aug, 1159 AD
max: 15:44 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.35; Saros 85)
This very subtle penumbral eclipse was essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it lasted 2 hours and 49 minutes, just 35% of the Moon's disc was in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow).
   
9 Sep, 1177 AD
max: 23:11 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.25; Saros 85)
This very subtle penumbral eclipse was essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it lasted 2 hours and 26 minutes, just 25% of the Moon's disc was in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow).
   
21 Sep, 1195 AD
max: 06:45 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.18; Saros 85)
In this extremely marginal eclipse, the Moon barely clipped the edge of the Earth's penumbral shadow. This caused a microscopic darkening of just 18% of the Moon's disc for 2 hours and 3 minutes, which was essentially impossible to see.
   
1 Oct, 1213 AD
max: 14:27 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.11; Saros 85)
In this extremely marginal eclipse, the Moon barely clipped the edge of the Earth's penumbral shadow. This caused a microscopic darkening of just 11% of the Moon's disc for 1 hour and 37 minutes, which was essentially impossible to see.
   
12 Oct, 1231 AD
max: 22:15 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.05; Saros 85)
In this extremely marginal eclipse, the Moon barely clipped the edge of the Earth's penumbral shadow. This caused a microscopic darkening of just 5% of the Moon's disc for 1 hour and 9 minutes, which was essentially impossible to see.
   
23 Oct, 1249 AD
max: 06:11 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.01; Saros 85)
In this virtually non-existant eclipse, the Moon barely clipped the edge of the Earth's penumbral shadow; although the eclipse lasted 28 minutes and 30 seconds, it was impossible to see in practice.
