Lunar Eclipses in Saros Series 97

This page lists all the lunar eclipses in saros series 97. The series contains 72 eclipses, occurring over 1280 years.

This series is partnered with solar Saros series 104.

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).
31 Mar, 0443 AD
max: 14:09 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.09; Saros 97)

10 Apr, 0461 AD
max: 21:30 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.20; Saros 97)
This very subtle penumbral eclipse was essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it lasted 2 hours and 7 minutes, just 20% of the Moon's disc was in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow).
   
22 Apr, 0479 AD
max: 04:48 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.32; Saros 97)
This very subtle penumbral eclipse was essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it lasted 2 hours and 39 minutes, just 32% of the Moon's disc was in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow).
   
2 May, 0497 AD
max: 12:01 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.46; Saros 97)
This very subtle penumbral eclipse was essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it lasted 3 hours and 5 minutes, just 46% of the Moon's disc was in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow).
   
13 May, 0515 AD
max: 19:11 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.59; Saros 97)

max: 09:30 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse

Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.73; Saros 97)
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 73% 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 51 minutes.

Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.65; Saros 97)
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 41 minutes.

Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.57; Saros 97)
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).

Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.23; Saros 97)

max: 04:51 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.10; Saros 97)
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 31 minutes, which was essentially impossible to see.
