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.

max: 02:56 UT
Partial Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.60; Saros 130)
A moderate partial eclipse, with 60% of the Sun covered for viewers closest to the center, created an interesting spectacle.
4 May, 1277 AD
max: 13:03 UT
Annular Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.95; Saros 97)
The Sun was 95% covered in a moderate annular eclipse, lasting just moments and covering only an extremely narrow strip. 		   
18 May, 1277 AD
max: 18:27 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.27; Saros 109)
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 12 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 27% 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 23 minutes in total.
28 Oct, 1277 AD
max: 05:27 UT
Total Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.04; Saros 102)
A dramatic total eclipse plunged the Sun into darkness for 3 minutes and 23 seconds at maximum, creating an amazing spectacle for observers in a very broad path, 273 km wide at maximum. 		   
12 Nov, 1277 AD
max: 04:15 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.76; Saros 114)
The Moon was strikingly shadowed in this deep partial eclipse which lasted 3 hours and 11 minutes, with 76% of the Moon in darkness at maximum.
9 Apr, 1278 AD
max: 03:49 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.13; Saros 81)
In this extremely marginal eclipse, the Moon barely clipped the edge of the Earth's penumbral shadow. This caused a microscopic darkening of just 13% of the Moon's disc for 1 hour and 36 minutes, which was essentially impossible to see. 		   
23 Apr, 1278 AD
max: 13:27 UT
Annular Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.95; Saros 107)
The Sun was 95% covered in a moderate annular eclipse, lasting 6 minutes and 37 seconds and covering a broad path up to 207 km wide.
8 May, 1278 AD
max: 11:16 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.90; Saros 119)
The Moon approached within 4% of the Earth's umbral shadow at maximum eclipse; 90% of the Moon's disc was partially shaded by the Earth, with the overall eclipse lasting 3 hours and 52 minutes. While less dramatic than a partial eclipse (as no part of the Moon was in complete shadow), a shading across the Moon should have been readily visible to observers.
17 Oct, 1278 AD
max: 21:04 UT
Total Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.03; Saros 112)
A dramatic total eclipse plunged the Sun into darkness for 3 minutes and 3 seconds at maximum, creating an amazing spectacle for observers in a path up to 116 km wide. 		   
1 Nov, 1278 AD
max: 03:32 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.62; Saros 124)
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 62% 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 50 minutes.
29 Mar, 1279 AD
max: 17:41 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.38; Saros 91)
The Earth's shadow on the moon was clearly visible in this eclipse, with 38% of the Moon in shadow; the partial eclipse lasted for 2 hours and 14 minutes. 		   
12 Apr, 1279 AD
max: 16:35 UT
Annular Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.98; Saros 117)
A large annular eclipse covered 98% of the Sun, creating a dramatic spectacle for observers in a path up to 86 km wide; it lasted 1 minute and 55 seconds at the point of maximum eclipse.
21 Sep, 1279 AD
max: 19:18 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.21; Saros 96)
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 42 minutes. 		   
7 Oct, 1279 AD
max: 08:33 UT
Annular Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.98; Saros 122)
A large annular eclipse covered 98% of the Sun, creating a dramatic spectacle for observers in a path up to 82 km wide; it lasted 1 minute and 42 seconds at the point of maximum eclipse.
2 Mar, 1280 AD
max: 17:16 UT
Partial Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.21; Saros 89)
A small partial eclipse barely darkened the Sun. With just 21% of the Sun covered for viewers closest to the center, this was of limited interest. 		   
18 Mar, 1280 AD
max: 00:44 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.69; Saros 101)
A dramatic total eclipse lasting 1 hour and 43 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 51 minutes in total.
1 Apr, 1280 AD
max: 02:45 UT
Partial Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.63; Saros 127)
A moderate partial eclipse, with 63% of the Sun covered for viewers closest to the center, created an interesting spectacle.
10 Sep, 1280 AD
max: 09:54 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.59; Saros 106)
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 34 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 59% 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 29 minutes in total. 		   
25 Sep, 1280 AD
max: 12:58 UT
Partial Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.41; Saros 132)
A small partial eclipse barely darkened the Sun. With just 41% of the Sun covered for viewers closest to the center, this was of limited interest.
