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.

Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.16; Saros 66)

Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.91; Saros 71)
|
The Moon was almost covered by the Earth's shadow in a very deep partial eclipse, which lasted 3 hours and 24 minutes. With 91% of the Moon in shadow at maximum eclipse, this was quite a memorable event.

19 Mar, 0322 AD
max: 22:15 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.29; Saros 76)
|
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 14 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 29% of its diameter inside the Earth's umbral shadow.
