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.

(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.

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.

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.
