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.

All Eclipses, 1521–1540 AD

23 Mar, 1521 AD
max: 04:04 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.67; Saros 95)
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 67% 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 59 minutes. 		   
7 Apr, 1521 AD
max: 06:23 UT
Total Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.07; Saros 121)
A dramatic total eclipse plunged the Sun into darkness for 5 minutes and 15 seconds at maximum, creating an amazing spectacle for observers in a broad path up to 222 km wide.
16 Sep, 1521 AD
max: 13:38 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.82; Saros 100)
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 82% 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. 		   
30 Sep, 1521 AD
max: 16:18 UT
Annular Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.95; Saros 126)
The Sun was 95% covered in a moderate annular eclipse, lasting 5 minutes and 30 seconds and covering a broad path up to 191 km wide.
15 Oct, 1521 AD
max: 23:38 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.04; Saros 138)
In this extremely marginal eclipse, the Moon barely clipped the edge of the Earth's penumbral shadow. This caused a microscopic darkening of just 4% of the Moon's disc for 53 minutes and 6 seconds, which was essentially impossible to see.
12 Mar, 1522 AD
max: 08:29 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.04; Saros 105)
The Moon barely edged into total eclipse for 29 minutes and 18 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 22 minutes in total. 		   
27 Mar, 1522 AD
max: 21:20 UT

(umbral mag. 0.57; Saros 106)
A moderate partial eclipse, with 57% of the Sun covered for viewers closest to the center, created an interesting spectacle.

max: 01:53 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.54; Saros 118)
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 33 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 54% 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 34 minutes in total.
28 Apr, 1538 AD
max: 21:14 UT
Total Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.06; Saros 111)
A dramatic total eclipse plunged the Sun into darkness for 5 minutes and 38 seconds at maximum, creating an amazing spectacle for observers in a very broad path, 249 km wide at maximum. 		   
14 May, 1538 AD
max: 01:55 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.25; Saros 123)
The Earth's shadow on the moon was clearly visible in this eclipse, with 25% of the Moon in shadow; the partial eclipse lasted for 1 hour and 58 minutes.
22 Oct, 1538 AD
max: 23:36 UT
Annular Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.92; Saros 116)
A small annular eclipse covered only 92% of the Sun in a very broad path, 351 km wide at maximum, and lasted 9 minutes and 41 seconds. 		   
6 Nov, 1538 AD
max: 16:19 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.33; Saros 128)
The Earth's shadow on the moon was clearly visible in this eclipse, with 33% of the Moon in shadow; the partial eclipse lasted for 2 hours exactly.
3 Apr, 1539 AD
max: 11:10 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.57; Saros 95)
This very subtle penumbral eclipse was essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it lasted 3 hours and 41 minutes, just 57% of the Moon's disc was in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow). 		   
18 Apr, 1539 AD
max: 14:12 UT
Total Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.07; Saros 121)
A dramatic total eclipse plunged the Sun into darkness for 5 minutes and 28 seconds at maximum, creating an amazing spectacle for observers in a broad path up to 225 km wide.
27 Sep, 1539 AD
max: 21:39 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.75; Saros 100)
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 75% 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 44 minutes. 		   
11 Oct, 1539 AD
max: 23:59 UT
Annular Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.95; Saros 126)
The Sun was 95% covered in a moderate annular eclipse, lasting 5 minutes and 35 seconds and covering a broad path up to 192 km wide.
27 Oct, 1539 AD
max: 08:08 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.07; Saros 138)
In this extremely marginal eclipse, the Moon barely clipped the edge of the Earth's penumbral shadow. This caused a microscopic darkening of just 7% of the Moon's disc for 1 hour and 12 minutes, which was essentially impossible to see.
22 Mar, 1540 AD
max: 16:08 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.96; Saros 105)
The Moon was almost covered by the Earth's shadow in a very deep partial eclipse, which lasted 3 hours and 16 minutes. With 96% of the Moon in shadow at maximum eclipse, this was quite a memorable event. 		   
7 Apr, 1540 AD
max: 05:01 UT
Total Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.01; Saros 131)
A fleeting total eclipse covered a path up to 123 km wide and lasted for 42 seconds at the point of maximum eclipse.
16 Sep, 1540 AD
max: 07:16 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.99; Saros 110)
The Moon was almost covered by the Earth's shadow in a very deep partial eclipse, which lasted 3 hours and 22 minutes. With 99% of the Moon in shadow at maximum eclipse, this was quite a memorable event. 		   
30 Sep, 1540 AD
max: 06:51 UT
Annular Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.00; Saros 136)
A large annular eclipse covered over 99% of the Sun, creating a dramatic spectacle for observers in a narrow path at most 27 km wide; it lasted just 17 seconds at the point of maximum eclipse.
