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, 0860–0841 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).
24 Feb, 0860 BC
max: 10:10 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.80; Saros 19)
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 4 hours and 9 minutes.
   
21 Aug, 0860 BC
max: 00:29 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.86; Saros 24)
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 86% 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 7 minutes.
   
13 Feb, 0859 BC
max: 19:03 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.20; Saros 29)
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 5 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 20% 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 24 minutes in total.
   
10 Aug, 0859 BC
max: 06:10 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.12; Saros 34)
A shallow total eclipse saw the Moon in relative darkness for 54 minutes and 30 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 35 minutes in total.
   
3 Feb, 0858 BC
max: 09:41 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.23; Saros 39)
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 6 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 23% 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 18 minutes in total.
   
30 Jul, 0858 BC
max: 06:36 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.17; Saros 44)
A shallow total eclipse saw the Moon in relative darkness for 1 hour and 5 minutes. The Moon was 17% of its diameter into the Earth's umbral shadow, and should have been significantly darkened. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 40 minutes in total.
   
24 Jan, 0857 BC
max: 01:46 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.93; Saros 49)
The Moon approached within 4% of the Earth's umbral shadow at maximum eclipse; 93% of the Moon's disc was partially shaded by the Earth, with the overall eclipse lasting 3 hours and 59 minutes. 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.
   
18 Jul, 0857 BC
max: 08:53 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.89; Saros 54)
At maximum eclipse, 89% 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 4 hours and 20 minutes overall.
   
14 Dec, 0857 BC
max: 00:08 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.97; Saros 21)
At maximum eclipse, 97% 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 4 hours and 28 minutes overall.
   
8 Jun, 0856 BC
max: 10:03 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.39; Saros 26)
The Earth's shadow on the moon was clearly visible in this eclipse, with 39% of the Moon in shadow; the partial eclipse lasted for 2 hours and 11 minutes.
   
3 Dec, 0856 BC
max: 02:11 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.10; Saros 31)
A shallow total eclipse saw the Moon in relative darkness for 50 minutes and 48 seconds. The Moon was 10% 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.
   
29 May, 0855 BC
max: 03:01 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.78; Saros 36)
A dramatic total eclipse lasting 1 hour and 39 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 31 minutes in total.
   
22 Nov, 0855 BC
max: 01:11 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.28; Saros 41)
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 19 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 28% 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 43 minutes in total.
   
18 May, 0854 BC
max: 19:25 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse

11 Nov, 0854 BC
max: 04:45 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.08; Saros 51)
A tiny bite out of the Moon may have been visible at maximum, though just 8% of the Moon was shadowed in a partial eclipse which lasted for 1 hour and 6 minutes. A shading across the moon from the Earth's penumbral shadow should have been visible at maximum eclipse.
   
7 Apr, 0853 BC
max: 18:21 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.64; Saros 18)
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 49 minutes.
   
7 May, 0853 BC
max: 06:48 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.08; Saros 56)
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.

max: 04:50 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.80; Saros 23)
