You can see the solar eclipses or the combined eclipse catalog by clicking "Solar Eclipses" or "All Eclipses" in the top-right tabs.

Lunar Eclipses, 1020–1001 BC

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).
23 Apr, 1020 BC
max: 20:03 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.88; Saros 44)
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 88% 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 4 hours and 28 minutes.
   
17 Oct, 1020 BC
max: 17:59 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.87; Saros 49)
At maximum eclipse, 87% of the Moon's disc was partially shaded by the Earth, which caused a slight shadow gradient across its disc; this subtle effect may have been visible to careful observers. No part of the Moon was in complete shadow. The eclipse lasted 3 hours and 50 minutes overall.
   
14 Mar, 1019 BC
max: 06:29 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 1.04; Saros 16)
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 38 minutes in all, though for most of it, the eclipse was extremely difficult or impossible to see.
   
7 Sep, 1019 BC
max: 20:43 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.12; Saros 21)
At maximum eclipse, a small bite out of the Moon should have been visible. The eclipse lasted for 1 hour and 19 minutes, with just 12% of the Moon in shadow at maximum.
   
3 Mar, 1018 BC
max: 14:56 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.46; Saros 26)
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 30 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 34 minutes in total.
   
28 Aug, 1018 BC
max: 02:50 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.39; Saros 31)
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 29 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 45 minutes in total.
   
21 Feb, 1017 BC
max: 05:26 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.96; Saros 36)
The Moon was almost covered by the Earth's shadow in a very deep partial eclipse, which lasted 3 hours and 5 minutes. With 96% of the Moon in shadow at maximum eclipse, this was quite a memorable event.
   
16 Aug, 1017 BC
max: 03:15 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.92; Saros 41)
The Moon was almost covered by the Earth's shadow in a very deep partial eclipse, which lasted 3 hours and 25 minutes. With 92% of the Moon in shadow at maximum eclipse, this was quite a memorable event.
   
11 Jan, 1016 BC
max: 11:36 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.17; Saros 8)
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 51 minutes, which was essentially impossible to see.
   
9 Feb, 1016 BC
max: 21:50 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.65; Saros 46)
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 65% 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.
6 Jul, 1016 BC
max: 16:15 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.02; Saros 13)
