Lunar Eclipses, 1180–1161 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).
22 May, 1180 BC
max: 11:48 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.15; Saros 31)
A shallow total eclipse saw the Moon in relative darkness for 59 minutes exactly. The Moon was 15% of its diameter into the Earth's umbral shadow, and should have been significantly darkened. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 30 minutes in total.
   
14 Nov, 1180 BC
max: 23:29 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.71; Saros 36)
The Moon was strikingly shadowed in this deep partial eclipse which lasted 2 hours and 48 minutes, with 71% of the Moon in darkness at maximum.
   
11 May, 1179 BC
max: 15:44 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.72; Saros 41)
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 72% 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 6 minutes.
   
6 Oct, 1179 BC
max: 04:12 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.28; Saros 8)
This very subtle penumbral eclipse was essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it lasted 2 hours and 19 minutes, just 28% of the Moon's disc was in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow).
   
4 Nov, 1179 BC
max: 14:43 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.52; Saros 46)
This very subtle penumbral eclipse was essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it lasted 3 hours and 5 minutes, just 52% of the Moon's disc was in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow).
1 Apr, 1178 BC
max: 02:25 UT
