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.

2 Jan, 1181 AD
max: 21:27 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.32; Saros 82)
|
This very subtle penumbral eclipse was essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it lasted 2 hours and 48 minutes, just 32% of the Moon's disc was in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow).
|
|
1 Feb, 1181 AD
max: 13:28 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.11; Saros 120)
|
In this extremely marginal eclipse, the Moon barely clipped the edge of the Earth's penumbral shadow. This caused a microscopic darkening of just 11% of the Moon's disc for 1 hour and 38 minutes, which was essentially impossible to see.
|
28 Jun, 1181 AD
max: 11:40 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.82; Saros 87)
|
At maximum eclipse, 82% 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 45 minutes overall.
|
|
27 Jul, 1181 AD
max: 19:06 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.21; Saros 125)

|
|
18 Jun, 1182 AD
max: 04:56 UT

The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 5 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 21% 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 19 minutes in total.
|
|
11 Dec, 1182 AD

Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.70; Saros 102)

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 50 minutes in total.
