|
This was a deep partial eclipse, with 95% of the Sun covered for viewers closest to the center. This provided a significant spectacle for those who saw it.

Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.33; Saros 10)
|
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 25 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 33% 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 47 minutes in total.

Partial Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.80; Saros 36)
|
A moderate partial eclipse, with 80% of the Sun covered for viewers closest to the center, created an interesting spectacle.

Partial Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.84; Saros 3)

Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.25; Saros 15)
|
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 9 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 25% 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 20 minutes in total.

Hybrid Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.01; Saros 8)
|
A fleeting hybrid eclipse covered a narrow path at most 50 km wide and lasted for just 22 seconds at the point of maximum eclipse.

5 Oct, 1643 BC
max: 13:11 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.04; Saros 20)
|
The Moon barely edged into total eclipse for 30 minutes and 6 seconds. With the Moon just 4% of its diameter into the Earth's umbral shadow, the Moon may have been quite bright, but even so, this should have been worth seeing. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 28 minutes in total.

max: 06:04 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.01; Saros -13)
|
In this extremely marginal eclipse, the Moon barely clipped the edge of the Earth's penumbral shadow. This caused a microscopic darkening of just 1% of the Moon's disc for 29 minutes and 48 seconds, which was essentially impossible to see.

max: 04:13 UT
Hybrid Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.00; Saros 13)
|
A fleeting hybrid eclipse covered only an extremely narrow strip and lasted for a very brief 1 second at the point of maximum eclipse.
|
1 Apr, 1642 BC
max: 16:50 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.79; Saros 25)
|
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 79% of the Moon's disc was partially shaded by the Earth (none of it was in total shadow), which caused a gentle shadow gradient across its disc at maximum; the eclipse as a whole lasted 3 hours and 52 minutes.
|
10 Sep, 1642 BC
max: 19:42 UT
Annular Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.96; Saros 18)
|
The Sun was 96% covered in a moderate annular eclipse, lasting 3 minutes and 43 seconds and covering a path up to 136 km wide.

Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.85; Saros 30)
|
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 85% of the Moon's disc was partially shaded by the Earth (none of it was in total shadow), which caused a gentle shadow gradient across its disc at maximum; the eclipse as a whole lasted 4 hours and 3 minutes.

20 Feb, 1641 BC
max: 10:40 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.21; Saros -3)
|
The Earth's shadow on the moon was clearly visible in this eclipse, with 21% of the Moon in shadow; the partial eclipse lasted for 1 hour and 48 minutes.

max: 16:41 UT
Total Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.05; Saros 23)
|
A dramatic total eclipse plunged the Sun into darkness for 4 minutes and 13 seconds at maximum, creating an amazing spectacle for observers in a broad path up to 182 km wide.

15 Aug, 1641 BC
max: 00:12 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.27; Saros 2)

Annular Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.93; Saros 28)
|
A small annular eclipse covered only 93% of the Sun in a very broad path, 299 km wide at maximum, and lasted 8 minutes and 34 seconds.
