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.

Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.33; Saros 84)
|
This very subtle penumbral eclipse was essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it lasted 2 hours and 56 minutes, just 33% of the Moon's disc was in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow).
|
|
18 Jun, 0121 AD
max: 08:59 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.61; Saros 51)
|
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 61% 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 3 hours and 23 minutes.
