A penumbral eclipse of the Moon occurred on 22 June, 0130 BC UT Old Style, with maximum eclipse at 04:38 UT. The Moon approached within 2% of the Earth's umbral shadow at maximum eclipse; 93% of the Moon's disc was partially shaded by the Earth, with the overall eclipse lasting 3 hours and 59 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.
The penumbral eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 59 minutes.
Maximum eclipse was at 04:38:11 UT.
