(umbral mag. 1.21; Saros 31)
|
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 10 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 21% 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 39 minutes in total.

Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.23; Saros 36)
|
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 7 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 23% 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 19 minutes in total.

Total Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.04; Saros 29)
|
A dramatic total eclipse plunged the Sun into darkness for 2 minutes and 33 seconds at maximum, creating an amazing spectacle for observers in a very broad path, 627 km wide at maximum.

Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.14; Saros 41)
|
A shallow total eclipse saw the Moon in relative darkness for 58 minutes and 42 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 38 minutes in total.

Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.02; Saros 8)
|
In this extremely marginal eclipse, the Moon barely clipped the edge of the Earth's penumbral shadow. This caused a microscopic darkening of just 2% of the Moon's disc for 36 minutes and 42 seconds, which was essentially impossible to see.

Annular Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.96; Saros 34)
|
The Sun was 96% covered in a moderate annular eclipse, lasting 5 minutes and 29 seconds and covering a broad path up to 167 km wide.

max: 22:09 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.86; Saros 46)
|
At maximum eclipse, 86% 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.

max: 03:41 UT
Hybrid Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.01; Saros 39)
|
The Sun was darkened for 1 minute and 5 seconds by a dramatic hybrid eclipse covering a narrow path at most 36 km wide. This was a sight worth seeing.

Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.94; Saros 51)
|
At maximum eclipse, 94% 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 4 hours and 26 minutes overall.

Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.19; Saros 18)
