A partial eclipse of the Moon occurred on 27 July, 1026 BC UT Old Style, with maximum eclipse at 15:37 UT. A tiny bite out of the Moon may have been visible at maximum, though just 9% of the Moon was shadowed in a partial eclipse which lasted for 1 hour and 14 minutes. A shading across the moon from the Earth's penumbral shadow should have been visible at maximum eclipse.

The penumbral eclipse lasted for 5 hours exactly. The partial eclipse lasted for 1 hour and 14 minutes. Maximum eclipse was at 15:37:33 UT.
