Lunar Eclipses, 0920–0901 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).
27 May, 0920 BC
max: 02:40 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.79; Saros 35)
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 49 minutes in total.
   
21 Nov, 0920 BC
max: 01:45 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.08; Saros 40)
A shallow total eclipse saw the Moon in relative darkness for 44 minutes and 12 seconds. The Moon was 8% of its diameter into the Earth's umbral shadow, and should have been significantly darkened. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 22 minutes in total.
   
16 May, 0919 BC
max: 12:26 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.52; Saros 45)
The Earth's shadow on the moon was clearly visible in this eclipse, with 52% of the Moon in shadow; the partial eclipse lasted for 2 hours and 31 minutes.
   
10 Nov, 0919 BC
max: 06:53 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.80; Saros 50)
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 16 minutes.
   
6 Apr, 0918 BC
max: 21:13 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.88; Saros 17)
At maximum eclipse, 88% 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 51 minutes overall.
   
6 May, 0918 BC
max: 04:02 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.20; Saros 55)
In this extremely marginal eclipse, the Moon barely clipped the edge of the Earth's penumbral shadow. This caused a microscopic darkening of just 20% of the Moon's disc for 1 hour and 57 minutes, which was essentially impossible to see.
30 Sep, 0918 BC
max: 11:45 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.71; Saros 22)
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 71% 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 4 minutes.
   
26 Mar, 0917 BC
max: 13:16 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.23; Saros 27)
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 8 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 23 minutes in total.
   
18 Sep, 0917 BC
max: 16:15 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.03; Saros 32)
The Moon barely edged into total eclipse for 26 minutes and 42 seconds. With the Moon just 3% 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 21 minutes in total.
   
16 Mar, 0916 BC
max: 00:04 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.08; Saros 37)
A shallow total eclipse saw the Moon in relative darkness for 45 minutes and 6 seconds. The Moon was 8% of its diameter into the Earth's umbral shadow, and should have been significantly darkened. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 27 minutes in total.
   
8 Sep, 0916 BC
max: 04:06 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.34; Saros 42)

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.
   
5 Mar, 0915 BC
max: 03:31 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.72; Saros 47)
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 7 minutes.
   
28 Aug, 0915 BC
max: 20:08 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.10; Saros 52)
A tiny bite out of the Moon may have been visible at maximum, though just 10% of the Moon was shadowed in a partial eclipse which lasted for 1 hour and 7 minutes. A shading across the moon from the Earth's penumbral shadow should have been visible at maximum eclipse.
   
23 Jan, 0914 BC
max: 11:07 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.99; Saros 19)
