Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.95; Saros 115)

9 Jan, 1758 AD
max: 18:13 UT
Partial Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.40; Saros 108)

24 Jan, 1758 AD
max: 06:34 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.81; Saros 120)
A dramatic total eclipse lasting 1 hour and 45 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 55 minutes in total.
8 Feb, 1758 AD
max: 04:40 UT
Partial Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.35; Saros 146)

max: 08:57 UT
Partial Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.63; Saros 113)

20 Jul, 1758 AD
max: 16:36 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.46; Saros 125)
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 28 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 46% 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.

max: 08:06 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.58; Saros 130)

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.

(penum. mag. 0.27; Saros 102)
This very subtle penumbral eclipse was essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it lasted 2 hours and 18 minutes, just 27% of the Moon's disc was in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow).

Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.44; Saros 140)

(umbral mag. 0.05; Saros 107)
A tiny bite out of the Moon may have been visible at maximum, though just 5% of the Moon was shadowed in a partial eclipse which lasted for 56 minutes and 36 seconds. A shading across the moon from the Earth's penumbral shadow should have been visible at maximum eclipse. 		   
13 Jun, 1760 AD
max: 08:09 UT
Total Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.07; Saros 133)
