This catalog has a page for every eclipse from 2000 BC to 3000 AD, 23,962 in all, shown in groups of 20 years at a time. You can go to any eclipse by selecting the milennium, century and 20-year period from the navigation tabs above; then click on an eclipse's date in the list below to to go its page.

You can see the solar or lunar eclipses separately by clicking "Solar Eclipses" or "Lunar Eclipses" in the top-right tabs.

6 Feb, 0180 BC
max: 21:54 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.66; Saros 40)
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 66% 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 58 minutes.
   
21 Feb, 0180 BC
max: 22:46 UT
Total Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.06; Saros 66)
A dramatic total eclipse plunged the Sun into darkness for 5 minutes and 8 seconds at maximum, creating an amazing spectacle for observers in a broad path up to 204 km wide.
3 Aug, 0180 BC
max: 06:22 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.84; Saros 45)
At maximum eclipse, 84% of the Moon's disc was partially shaded by the Earth, which caused a slight shadow gradient across its disc; this subtle effect may have been visible to careful observers. No part of the Moon was in complete shadow. The eclipse lasted 3 hours and 52 minutes overall.
   
17 Aug, 0180 BC
max: 09:52 UT

max: 15:09 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.11; Saros 83)

max: 12:19 UT
Partial Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.20; Saros 84)
With only 20% of the Sun covered at maximum eclipse, this was a very marginal eclipse at best, and rather uninteresting.
19 Sep, 0164 BC
max: 15:34 UT
Partial Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.48; Saros 51)
A small partial eclipse barely darkened the Sun. With just 48% of the Sun covered for viewers closest to the center, this was of limited interest.
   
3 Oct, 0164 BC
max: 16:50 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.68; Saros 63)
A dramatic total eclipse lasting 1 hour and 39 minutes plunged the full Moon into deep darkness, as it passed right through the centre of the Earth's umbral shadow. While the visual effect of a total eclipse is variable, the Moon may have been stained a deep orange or red colour at maximum eclipse. This was a great spectacle for everyone who saw it. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 37 minutes in total.
15 Mar, 0163 BC
max: 14:25 UT
Total Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.05; Saros 56)
A dramatic total eclipse plunged the Sun into darkness for 4 minutes and 40 seconds at maximum, creating an amazing spectacle for observers in a broad path up to 205 km wide.
   
30 Mar, 0163 BC
max: 21:12 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.12; Saros 68)
At maximum eclipse, a small bite out of the Moon should have been visible. The eclipse lasted for 1 hour and 22 minutes, with just 12% of the Moon in shadow at maximum.
8 Sep, 0163 BC
max: 16:48 UT
Annular Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.93; Saros 61)
A small annular eclipse covered only 93% of the Sun in a very broad path, 332 km wide at maximum, and lasted 8 minutes and 39 seconds.
   
23 Sep, 0163 BC
max: 07:08 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.45; Saros 73)
The Earth's shadow on the moon was clearly visible in this eclipse, with 45% of the Moon in shadow; the partial eclipse lasted for 2 hours and 17 minutes.
18 Feb, 0162 BC
max: 05:24 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.60; Saros 40)
This very subtle penumbral eclipse was essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it lasted 3 hours and 48 minutes, just 60% of the Moon's disc was in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow).
   
5 Mar, 0162 BC
max: 06:58 UT
Total Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.06; Saros 66)
A dramatic total eclipse plunged the Sun into darkness for 5 minutes and 27 seconds at maximum, creating an amazing spectacle for observers in a broad path up to 210 km wide.
14 Aug, 0162 BC
max: 14:06 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.74; Saros 45)
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 74% 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 41 minutes.
   
28 Aug, 0162 BC
max: 17:08 UT
Annular Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.95; Saros 71)
The Sun was 95% covered in a moderate annular eclipse, lasting 5 minutes and 54 seconds and covering a broad path up to 180 km wide.
12 Sep, 0162 BC
max: 23:22 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.16; Saros 83)
In this extremely marginal eclipse, the Moon barely clipped the edge of the Earth's penumbral shadow. This caused a microscopic darkening of just 16% of the Moon's disc for 1 hour and 48 minutes, which was essentially impossible to see.
7 Feb, 0161 BC
max: 09:08 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.92; Saros 50)
The Moon was almost covered by the Earth's shadow in a very deep partial eclipse, which lasted 3 hours and 15 minutes. With 92% of the Moon in shadow at maximum eclipse, this was quite a memorable event.
   
22 Feb, 0161 BC
max: 21:57 UT
Total Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.01; Saros 76)
A fleeting total eclipse covered a path up to 117 km wide and lasted for 36 seconds at the point of maximum eclipse.
3 Aug, 0161 BC
max: 00:57 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.03; Saros 55)
The Moon barely edged into total eclipse for 27 minutes and 54 seconds. With the Moon just 3% 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 23 minutes in total.
   
16 Aug, 0161 BC
max: 23:28 UT
Annular Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.00; Saros 81)
A large annular eclipse covered over 99% of the Sun, creating a dramatic spectacle for observers in a narrow path at most 18 km wide; it lasted a brief 11 seconds at the point of maximum eclipse.
