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.

25 May, 1081 AD
max: 11:04 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.50; Saros 96)
|
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 35 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 50% 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 42 minutes in total.

19 Nov, 1081 AD
max: 07:50 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.63; Saros 101)

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 44 minutes in total.
