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, 1841–1860 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, 1841 AD
max: 02:07 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.72; Saros 121)
A dramatic total eclipse lasting 1 hour and 38 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 32 minutes in total. 		   
2 Aug, 1841 AD
max: 10:00 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.67; Saros 126)
A dramatic total eclipse lasting 1 hour and 45 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. 		   
26 Jan, 1842 AD
max: 17:44 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.79; Saros 131)
The Moon was strikingly shadowed in this deep partial eclipse which lasted 2 hours and 52 minutes, with 79% of the Moon in darkness at maximum. 		   
22 Jul, 1842 AD
max: 10:47 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.29; Saros 136)
The Earth's shadow on the moon was clearly visible in this eclipse, with 29% of the Moon in shadow; the partial eclipse lasted for 2 hours and 7 minutes. 		   
17 Dec, 1842 AD
max: 19:02 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.11; Saros 103)
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 34 minutes, which was essentially impossible to see. 		   
16 Jan, 1843 AD
max: 08:14 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.50; Saros 141)
This very subtle penumbral eclipse was essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it lasted 3 hours and 8 minutes, just 50% of the Moon's disc was in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow).
12 Jun, 1843 AD
max: 07:22 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.87; Saros 108)
At maximum eclipse, 87% 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 4 hours exactly overall. 		   
11 Jul, 1843 AD
max: 16:49 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.02; Saros 146)
In this extremely marginal eclipse, the Moon barely clipped the edge of the Earth's penumbral shadow. This caused a microscopic darkening of just 2% of the Moon's disc for 43 minutes and 18 seconds, which was essentially impossible to see.
7 Dec, 1843 AD
max: 00:11 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.20; Saros 113)
The Earth's shadow on the moon was clearly visible in this eclipse, with 20% of the Moon in shadow; the partial eclipse lasted for 1 hour and 47 minutes. 		   
31 May, 1844 AD
max: 22:50 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.33; Saros 118)
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 17 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 33% 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 22 minutes in total. 		   
24 Nov, 1844 AD
max: 23:44 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.44; Saros 123)

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 50 minutes in total. 		   
21 May, 1845 AD
max: 15:54 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.10; Saros 128)
A shallow total eclipse saw the Moon in relative darkness for 45 minutes and 18 seconds. The Moon was 10% of its diameter into the Earth's umbral shadow, and should have been significantly darkened. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 14 minutes in total. 		   
14 Nov, 1845 AD
max: 00:49 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.92; Saros 133)
The Moon was almost covered by the Earth's shadow in a very deep partial eclipse, which lasted 3 hours and 19 minutes. With 92% of the Moon in shadow at maximum eclipse, this was quite a memorable event. 		   
11 Apr, 1846 AD
max: 18:11 UT

In this extremely marginal eclipse, the Moon barely clipped the edge of the Earth's penumbral shadow. This caused a microscopic darkening of just 10% of the Moon's disc for 1 hour and 33 minutes, which was essentially impossible to see. 		   
11 May, 1846 AD
max: 05:53 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.64; Saros 138)
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 64% 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.
4 Oct, 1846 AD
max: 22:21 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.08; Saros 105)

max: 08:59 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.73; Saros 143)
