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, 2541–2560 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).
13 Jan, 2541 AD
max: 16:07 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.91; Saros 162)
At maximum eclipse, 91% of the Moon's disc will be partially shaded by the Earth, which will cause a slight shadow gradient across its disc; this subtle effect may be visible to careful observers. No part of the Moon will be in complete shadow. The eclipse will last 3 hours and 56 minutes overall.
   
9 Jun, 2541 AD
max: 20:47 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.59; Saros 129)
This very subtle penumbral eclipse will be essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it will last 3 hours and 33 minutes, just 59% of the Moon's disc will be in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow).
   
9 Jul, 2541 AD
max: 09:11 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.12; Saros 167)
In this extremely marginal eclipse, the Moon barely clips the edge of the Earth's penumbral shadow. This will cause a microscopic darkening of just 12% of the Moon's disc for 1 hour and 46 minutes, which will be essentially impossible to see.
4 Dec, 2541 AD
max: 15:40 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.99; Saros 134)
At maximum eclipse, 99% of the Moon's disc will be partially shaded by the Earth, which will cause a slight shadow gradient across its disc; this subtle effect may be visible to careful observers. No part of the Moon will be in complete shadow. The eclipse will last 4 hours and 26 minutes overall.
   
30 May, 2542 AD
max: 07:57 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.07; Saros 139)
A shallow total eclipse will see the Moon in relative darkness for 39 minutes and 24 seconds. The Moon will be 7% of its diameter into the Earth's umbral shadow, and should be significantly darkened. The partial eclipse will last for 3 hours and 16 minutes in total.
   
23 Nov, 2542 AD
max: 19:09 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.16; Saros 144)
A shallow total eclipse will see the Moon in relative darkness for 1 hour and 3 minutes. The Moon will be 16% of its diameter into the Earth's umbral shadow, and should be significantly darkened. The partial eclipse will last for 3 hours and 38 minutes in total.
   
20 May, 2543 AD
max: 00:03 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.33; Saros 149)
The Moon will be plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 18 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which will see 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 be stained a deep red colour. The partial eclipse will last for 3 hours and 22 minutes in total.
   
12 Nov, 2543 AD
max: 18:33 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.18; Saros 154)
A shallow total eclipse will see the Moon in relative darkness for 1 hour and 6 minutes. The Moon will be 18% of its diameter into the Earth's umbral shadow, and should be significantly darkened. The partial eclipse will last for 3 hours and 40 minutes in total.
   
8 May, 2544 AD
max: 16:35 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.95; Saros 159)
The Moon will approach within 2% of the Earth's umbral shadow at maximum eclipse; 95% of the Moon's disc will be partially shaded by the Earth, with the overall eclipse lasting 4 hours and 2 minutes. While less dramatic than a partial eclipse (as no part of the Moon will be in complete shadow), a shading across the Moon should be readily visible to observers.
   
31 Oct, 2544 AD
max: 21:24 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.98; Saros 164)
At maximum eclipse, 98% of the Moon's disc will be partially shaded by the Earth, which will cause a slight shadow gradient across its disc; this subtle effect may be visible to careful observers. No part of the Moon will be in complete shadow. The eclipse will last 4 hours and 27 minutes overall.
   
29 Mar, 2545 AD
max: 15:28 UT

11 Sep, 2546 AD
max: 15:16 UT
