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, 0460–0441 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).
13 Mar, 0460 BC
max: 20:15 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.93; Saros 54)
The Moon was almost covered by the Earth's shadow in a very deep partial eclipse, which lasted 3 hours and 7 minutes. With 93% of the Moon in shadow at maximum eclipse, this was quite a memorable event. 		   
7 Sep, 0460 BC
max: 05:08 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.81; Saros 59)
The Moon was strikingly shadowed in this deep partial eclipse which lasted 3 hours and 15 minutes, with 81% of the Moon in darkness at maximum. 		   
2 Feb, 0459 BC
max: 03:02 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.28; Saros 26)
This very subtle penumbral eclipse was essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it lasted 2 hours and 17 minutes, just 28% of the Moon's disc was in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow). 		   
3 Mar, 0459 BC
max: 11:54 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.64; Saros 64)
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 64% 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 22 minutes.
27 Aug, 0459 BC
max: 04:56 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.59; Saros 69)
This very subtle penumbral eclipse was essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it lasted 3 hours and 46 minutes, just 59% of the Moon's disc was in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow). 		   
22 Jan, 0458 BC
max: 17:24 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.47; Saros 36)

17 Jul, 0458 BC
max: 20:27 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.38; Saros 41)
The Earth's shadow on the moon was clearly visible in this eclipse, with 38% of the Moon in shadow; the partial eclipse lasted for 2 hours and 15 minutes. 		   
12 Jan, 0457 BC
max: 01:40 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.72; Saros 46)
A dramatic total eclipse lasting 1 hour and 42 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 48 minutes in total. 		   
6 Jul, 0457 BC
max: 10:24 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.83; Saros 51)
A dramatic total eclipse lasting 1 hour and 40 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 33 minutes in total.

max: 02:16 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.51; Saros 66)
This very subtle penumbral eclipse was essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it lasted 3 hours and 30 minutes, just 51% of the Moon's disc was in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow). 		   
17 May, 0455 BC
max: 09:52 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.80; Saros 33)
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 80% 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 59 minutes.

max: 19:08 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.13; Saros 71)
In this extremely marginal eclipse, the Moon barely clipped the edge of the Earth's penumbral shadow. This caused a microscopic darkening of just 13% of the Moon's disc for 1 hour and 40 minutes, which was essentially impossible to see.
9 Nov, 0455 BC
max: 17:48 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.20; Saros 38)
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 20% of the Moon in shadow at maximum. 		   
6 May, 0454 BC
max: 16:06 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.13; Saros 43)
A shallow total eclipse saw the Moon in relative darkness for 57 minutes exactly. The Moon was 13% of its diameter into the Earth's umbral shadow, and should have been significantly darkened. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 36 minutes in total. 		   
30 Oct, 0454 BC
max: 08:14 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.49; Saros 48)
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 28 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 49% 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 26 minutes in total. 		   
24 Apr, 0453 BC
max: 16:57 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.12; Saros 53)
A shallow total eclipse saw the Moon in relative darkness for 56 minutes and 12 seconds. The Moon was 12% of its diameter into the Earth's umbral shadow, and should have been significantly darkened. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 38 minutes in total. 		   
18 Oct, 0453 BC
max: 23:52 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.01; Saros 58)
The Moon barely edged into total eclipse for just 15 minutes and 18 seconds. With the Moon just 1% of its diameter into the Earth's umbral shadow, the Moon may have been quite bright, but even so, this should have been worth seeing. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 9 minutes in total.
