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, 1861–1880 AD

Note that eclipse dates are specified relative to UT. You have not selected a timezone for eclipse timings, so all times are shown in UT (essentially GMT).
11 Jan, 1861 AD
max: 03:29 UT
Annular Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.97; Saros 129)
The Sun was 97% covered in a moderate annular eclipse, lasting 3 minutes and 30 seconds and covering a path up to 123 km wide.
   
26 Jan, 1861 AD
max: 16:53 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.50; Saros 141)
This very subtle penumbral eclipse was essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it lasted 3 hours and 9 minutes, just 50% of the Moon's disc was in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow).
22 Jun, 1861 AD
max: 14:35 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.74; Saros 108)
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 74% 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 43 minutes.
   
8 Jul, 1861 AD
max: 02:10 UT
Annular Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.00; Saros 134)
A large annular eclipse covered over 99% of the Sun, creating a dramatic spectacle for observers in only a tiny path, just 7 km wide; it lasted a brief 14 seconds at the point of maximum eclipse.
21 Jul, 1861 AD
max: 23:50 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.17; Saros 146)
In this extremely marginal eclipse, the Moon barely clipped the edge of the Earth's penumbral shadow. This caused a microscopic darkening of just 17% of the Moon's disc for 1 hour and 57 minutes, which was essentially impossible to see.
17 Dec, 1861 AD
max: 08:18 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.18; Saros 113)

31 Dec, 1861 AD
max: 13:48 UT
Total Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.02; Saros 139)

max: 06:42 UT
Partial Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.92; Saros 144)

Partial Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.39; Saros 114)
A small partial eclipse barely darkened the Sun. With just 39% of the Sun covered for viewers closest to the center, this was of limited interest.
   
23 Aug, 1877 AD
max: 23:11 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.68; Saros 126)
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.
7 Sep, 1877 AD
max: 12:48 UT
Partial Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.64; Saros 152)
A moderate partial eclipse, with 64% of the Sun covered for viewers closest to the center, created an interesting spectacle.

max: 08:27 UT
Annular Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.92; Saros 119)
A small annular eclipse covered only 92% of the Sun in a very broad path, 729 km wide at maximum, and lasted 5 minutes and 59 seconds.
   
17 Feb, 1878 AD
max: 11:11 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.83; Saros 131)

29 Jul, 1878 AD
max: 21:47 UT
Total Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.05; Saros 124)
A dramatic total eclipse plunged the Sun into darkness for 3 minutes and 11 seconds at maximum, creating an amazing spectacle for observers in a broad path up to 191 km wide.
   
13 Aug, 1878 AD
max: 00:08 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.59; Saros 136)
The Earth's shadow on the moon was clearly visible in this eclipse, with 59% of the Moon in shadow; the partial eclipse lasted for 2 hours and 51 minutes.
8 Jan, 1879 AD
max: 12:04 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.08; Saros 103)
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 22 minutes, which was essentially impossible to see.
   
22 Jan, 1879 AD
max: 11:53 UT
Annular Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.97; Saros 129)
A large annular eclipse covered 97% of the Sun, creating a dramatic spectacle for observers in a path up to 110 km wide; it lasted 3 minutes and 3 seconds at the point of maximum eclipse. It was seen across southern South America and southern Africa. The partial eclipse was visible from most of South America, most of Africa, and part of the Middle East.
7 Feb, 1879 AD
max: 01:28 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.51; Saros 141)
This very subtle penumbral eclipse was essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it lasted 3 hours and 11 minutes, just 51% of the Moon's disc was in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow).
3 Jul, 1879 AD
max: 21:50 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.61; Saros 108)
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 61% 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 25 minutes.
   
19 Jul, 1879 AD
max: 09:04 UT
Annular Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.99; Saros 134)
A large annular eclipse covered over 99% of the Sun, creating a dramatic spectacle for observers in a narrow path at most 20 km wide; it lasted 39 seconds at the point of maximum eclipse.
2 Aug, 1879 AD
max: 06:57 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.31; Saros 146)
This very subtle penumbral eclipse was essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it lasted 2 hours and 35 minutes, just 31% of the Moon's disc was in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow).
28 Dec, 1879 AD
max: 16:26 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.17; Saros 113)
At maximum eclipse, a small bite out of the Moon should have been visible. The eclipse lasted for 1 hour and 37 minutes, with just 17% of the Moon in shadow at maximum.
   
11 Jan, 1880 AD
max: 22:34 UT
Total Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.02; Saros 139)
A dramatic total eclipse plunged the Sun into darkness for 2 minutes and 7 seconds at maximum, creating an amazing spectacle for observers in a path up to 84 km wide.
22 Jun, 1880 AD
max: 13:50 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.06; Saros 118)
A shallow total eclipse saw the Moon in relative darkness for 37 minutes and 12 seconds. The Moon was 6% of its diameter into the Earth's umbral shadow, and should have been significantly darkened. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 11 minutes in total.
   
7 Jul, 1880 AD
max: 13:10 UT
Annular Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.94; Saros 144)
The Sun was 94% covered in a moderate annular eclipse, lasting 5 minutes and 47 seconds and covering a very broad path, 611 km wide at maximum.
2 Dec, 1880 AD
max: 03:11 UT
Partial Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.04; Saros 111)
With only 4% of the Sun covered at maximum eclipse, this was a very marginal eclipse at best, and rather uninteresting.
   
16 Dec, 1880 AD
max: 15:39 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.39; Saros 123)
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 30 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 39% 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 49 minutes in total.
31 Dec, 1880 AD
max: 13:45 UT
Partial Solar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.71; Saros 149)
A moderate partial eclipse, with 71% of the Sun covered for viewers closest to the center, created an interesting spectacle.
