Timezone / Date

You have not selected a timezone for eclipse timings, so all times are shown in UT (essentially GMT).

Accuracy

Due to the erratic rotation of the Earth, the time and location of the eclipse cannot be forecast perfectly. This eclipse's time is estimated to be accurate ± 42m25s (with 95% confidence). This equates to an error in longitude of ± 10 degrees, or around ± 1101 km (684 miles) at the latitude of greatest eclipse.

A total eclipse of the Moon occurred on 9 June, 1293 BC UT Old Style, with maximum eclipse at 19:59 UT. A shallow total eclipse saw the Moon in relative darkness for 58 minutes and 48 seconds. The Moon was 14% of its diameter into the Earth's umbral shadow, and should have been significantly darkened. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 39 minutes in total.

The penumbral eclipse lasted for 6 hours and 4 minutes. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 39 minutes. The total eclipse lasted for 58 minutes and 48 seconds. Maximum eclipse was at 19:59:55 UT.
