Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.08; Saros 137)
|
In this extremely marginal eclipse, the Moon barely clipped the edge of the Earth's penumbral shadow. This caused a microscopic darkening of just 8% of the Moon's disc for 1 hour and 17 minutes, which was essentially impossible to see.

Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 1.01; Saros 104)
|
In a rare total penumbral eclipse, the entire Moon was partially shaded by the Earth (though none of it was in complete shadow), and the shading across the Moon should have been quite visible at maximum eclipse. The penumbral phase lasted for 4 hours and 44 minutes in all, though for most of it, the eclipse was extremely difficult or impossible to see.

Total Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.07; Saros 130)
|
A dramatic total eclipse plunged the Sun into darkness for 6 minutes and 37 seconds at maximum, creating an amazing spectacle for observers in a very broad path, 251 km wide at maximum.

Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.89; Saros 109)

Annular Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.91; Saros 135)

max: 03:54 UT
Partial Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.14; Saros 102)
|
With only 14% of the Sun covered at maximum eclipse, this was a very marginal eclipse at best, and rather uninteresting.

26 Jun, 1638 AD
max: 07:20 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.35; Saros 114)
|
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 27 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 35% 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 45 minutes in total.

11 Jul, 1638 AD
max: 11:10 UT
Partial Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.89; Saros 140)
|
This was a deep partial eclipse, with 89% of the Sun covered for viewers closest to the center. This provided a significant spectacle for those who saw it.

5 Dec, 1638 AD
max: 12:35 UT
Partial Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.31; Saros 107)
|
A small partial eclipse barely darkened the Sun. With just 31% of the Sun covered for viewers closest to the center, this was of limited interest.

21 Dec, 1638 AD
max: 01:59 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.60; Saros 119)
|
A dramatic total eclipse lasting 1 hour and 35 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 35 minutes in total.

Annular Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.99; Saros 112)
|
A large annular eclipse covered over 99% of the Sun, creating a dramatic spectacle for observers in a narrow path at most 38 km wide; it lasted 31 seconds at the point of maximum eclipse.

Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.91; Saros 124)
|
The Moon was almost covered by the Earth's shadow in a very deep partial eclipse, which lasted 3 hours and 12 minutes. With 91% of the Moon in shadow at maximum eclipse, this was quite a memorable event.

(umbral mag. 1.02; Saros 117)
|
The Sun was darkened for 1 minute and 27 seconds by a dramatic total eclipse covering a path up to 87 km wide. This was a sight worth seeing.

Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.46; Saros 96)
|
This very subtle penumbral eclipse was essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it lasted 2 hours and 55 minutes, just 46% of the Moon's disc was in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow).
