Lunar Eclipses in Saros Series 153

This page lists all the lunar eclipses in saros series 153 which are in our database. Note that the end of this series is not included in our database, so the list below only covers the earlier part of the series.

This series is partnered with solar Saros series 160.

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.

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).
16 Apr, 2136 AD
max: 17:03 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.04; Saros 153)
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 4% of the Moon's disc for 53 minutes and 18 seconds, which will be essentially impossible to see. 		   
28 Apr, 2154 AD
max: 00:58 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.12; Saros 153)
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 33 minutes, which will be essentially impossible to see. 		   
8 May, 2172 AD
max: 08:47 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.22; Saros 153)
This very subtle penumbral eclipse will be essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it will last 2 hours and 3 minutes, just 22% of the Moon's disc will be in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow). 		   
19 May, 2190 AD
max: 16:28 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.32; Saros 153)
This very subtle penumbral eclipse will be essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it will last 2 hours and 28 minutes, just 32% of the Moon's disc will be in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow). 		   
31 May, 2208 AD
max: 00:02 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.43; Saros 153)
This very subtle penumbral eclipse will be essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it will last 2 hours and 50 minutes, just 43% of the Moon's disc will be in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow). 		   
11 Jun, 2226 AD
max: 07:33 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.55; Saros 153)
This very subtle penumbral eclipse will be essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it will last 3 hours and 11 minutes, just 55% of the Moon's disc will be in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow). 		   
21 Jun, 2244 AD
max: 14:58 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.67; Saros 153)
This subtle penumbral eclipse may be visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 67% of the Moon's disc will be partially shaded by the Earth (none of it will be in total shadow), which will cause a gentle shadow gradient across its disc at maximum; the eclipse as a whole will last 3 hours and 29 minutes. 		   
2 Jul, 2262 AD
max: 22:21 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.80; Saros 153)

13 Jul, 2280 AD
max: 05:41 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
