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. Note
that we only have mapping data for
eclipses from year 1 AD, so any eclipses prior to that
date will be missing. 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.

Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.09; Saros 104)

Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.10; Saros 104)

Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 1.01; Saros 104)
|
In a rare total penumbral eclipse, the entire Moon was partially shaded by the Earth (though none of it was in complete shadow), and the shading across the Moon should have been quite visible at maximum eclipse. The penumbral phase lasted for 4 hours and 44 minutes in all, though for most of it, the eclipse was extremely difficult or impossible to see.

18 Jul, 1655 AD
max: 12:52 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.85; Saros 104)
|
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 85% 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 25 minutes.

max: 19:19 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.70; Saros 104)
|
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 70% 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 4 minutes.

9 Aug, 1691 AD
max: 01:52 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.55; Saros 104)
|
This very subtle penumbral eclipse was essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it lasted 3 hours and 41 minutes, just 55% of the Moon's disc was in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow).

Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.41; Saros 104)
|

31 Aug, 1727 AD
max: 15:11 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.29; Saros 104)
|
This very subtle penumbral eclipse was essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it lasted 2 hours and 43 minutes, just 29% of the Moon's disc was in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow).

10 Sep, 1745 AD
max: 22:02 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.17; Saros 104)
|
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 2 hours and 8 minutes, which was essentially impossible to see.

22 Sep, 1763 AD
max: 05:02 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.07; Saros 104)
|
In this extremely marginal eclipse, the Moon barely clipped the edge of the Earth's penumbral shadow. This caused a microscopic darkening of just 7% of the Moon's disc for 1 hour and 23 minutes, which was essentially impossible to see.
