This catalog has a page for every lunar eclipse from 2000 BC to 3000 AD, 12,064 in all, shown in groups of 20 years at a time. You can go to any eclipse by selecting the milennium, century and 20-year period from the navigation tabs above; then click on an eclipse's date in the list below to to go its page.

You can see the solar eclipses or the combined eclipse catalog by clicking "Solar Eclipses" or "All Eclipses" in the top-right tabs.

Lunar Eclipses, 1441–1460 AD

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.

The interactive map is currently not available.

Note that eclipse dates are specified relative to UT. You have not selected a timezone for eclipse timings, so all times are shown in UT (essentially GMT).
6 Feb, 1441 AD
max: 04:27 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.81; Saros 124)
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 81% 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 13 minutes.
   
4 Jul, 1441 AD
max: 09:47 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.17; Saros 91)
In this extremely marginal eclipse, the Moon barely clipped the edge of the Earth's penumbral shadow. This caused a microscopic darkening of just 17% of the Moon's disc for 1 hour and 59 minutes, which was essentially impossible to see.
   
2 Aug, 1441 AD
max: 20:40 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.63; Saros 129)
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 63% 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 34 minutes.
28 Dec, 1441 AD
max: 00:01 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.04; Saros 96)
A tiny bite out of the Moon may have been visible at maximum, though just 4% of the Moon was shadowed in a partial eclipse which lasted for 41 minutes and 48 seconds. A shading across the moon from the Earth's penumbral shadow should have been visible at maximum eclipse.
   
23 Jun, 1442 AD
max: 13:34 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.44; Saros 101)
The Earth's shadow on the moon was clearly visible in this eclipse, with 44% of the Moon in shadow; the partial eclipse lasted for 2 hours and 34 minutes.
   
17 Dec, 1442 AD
max: 15:17 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.29; Saros 106)
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 13 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 29% 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.
   
12 Jun, 1443 AD
max: 14:11 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.81; Saros 111)
A dramatic total eclipse lasting 1 hour and 46 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 55 minutes in total.
   
7 Dec, 1443 AD
max: 06:11 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.20; Saros 116)
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 4 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 20% 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 21 minutes in total.
   
31 May, 1444 AD
max: 18:58 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.43; Saros 121)

25 Nov, 1444 AD
max: 16:11 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.88; Saros 126)
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 88% 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 15 minutes.
   
21 Apr, 1445 AD
max: 23:16 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.87; Saros 93)

11 Apr, 1446 AD
max: 16:09 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.23; Saros 103)
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 7 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 23% of its diameter inside the Earth's umbral shadow.

5 Oct, 1446 AD
max: 01:01 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.98; Saros 108)
