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, 1641–1660 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).
25 Apr, 1641 AD
max: 12:13 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.80; Saros 106)
The Moon was strikingly shadowed in this deep partial eclipse which lasted 2 hours and 55 minutes, with 80% of the Moon in darkness at maximum.
   
18 Oct, 1641 AD
max: 18:59 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.53; Saros 111)
The Earth's shadow on the moon was clearly visible in this eclipse, with 53% of the Moon in shadow; the partial eclipse lasted for 2 hours and 41 minutes.
   
15 Apr, 1642 AD
max: 01:51 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.59; Saros 116)
A dramatic total eclipse lasting 1 hour and 37 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 39 minutes in total.
   
8 Oct, 1642 AD
max: 03:41 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.77; Saros 121)
A dramatic total eclipse lasting 1 hour and 40 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 38 minutes in total.
   
4 Apr, 1643 AD
max: 08:32 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.13; Saros 126)

27 Sep, 1643 AD
max: 18:27 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.51; Saros 131)
The Earth's shadow on the moon was clearly visible in this eclipse, with 51% of the Moon in shadow; the partial eclipse lasted for 2 hours and 25 minutes.
