The following chart shows the position where the Moon
is directly overhead at the maximum times of the
total (in blue) and
partial (in red) lunar eclipses (penumbral eclipses are
omitted). Each eclipse will be visible approximately
from the half of the Earth centred on that point. Use the
zoom controls on the left to zoom in and out; hover over
a marker to see the area of visibility and summary
information on that eclipse.

20 Jan, 1041 AD
max: 04:15 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.85; Saros 89)
|
The Moon was strikingly shadowed in this deep partial eclipse which lasted 3 hours and 20 minutes, with 85% of the Moon in darkness at maximum.
|
|
16 Jul, 1041 AD
max: 07:13 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.25; Saros 94)
|
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 9 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 25% 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 20 minutes in total.
|
|
9 Jan, 1042 AD
max: 04:15 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.51; Saros 99)
|
