A partial eclipse of the Moon occurred on Monday 28 July, 1692 UT (18 Jul, 1692 Old Style), with maximum eclipse at 03:10 UT. The Moon was almost covered by the Earth's shadow in a very deep partial eclipse, which lasted 3 hours and 20 minutes. With 90% of the Moon in shadow at maximum eclipse, this was quite a memorable event.
The penumbral eclipse lasted for 5 hours and 45 minutes. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 20 minutes. Maximum eclipse was at 03:10:46 UT.
This map shows the visibility of the eclipse at maximum eclipse, when it was visible within the bright area on the map. Note that the map is approximate, and if you were near the edge of the area of visibility, the moon was very close to the horizon and may not have been practically visible.
You can use the zoom controls to zoom in and out, and pan to see areas of interest. The green marker in the centre shows where the Moon will be directly overhead at maximum eclipse.
