A total eclipse of the Moon occurred on 1 June, 0139 BC UT Old Style, with maximum eclipse at 21:26 UT. The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 32 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 54% 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 29 minutes in total.
The penumbral eclipse lasted for 5 hours and 17 minutes. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 29 minutes. The total eclipse lasted for 1 hour and 32 minutes. Maximum eclipse was at 21:26:21 UT.
