18 Jun, 1804 BC
max: 22:45 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.02; Saros 30)
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 45 minutes and 6 seconds, which was essentially impossible to see.

max: 05:49 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.16; Saros 30)
In this extremely marginal eclipse, the Moon barely clipped the edge of the Earth's penumbral shadow. This caused a microscopic darkening of just 16% of the Moon's disc for 1 hour and 56 minutes, which was essentially impossible to see.

Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.11; Saros 30)
At maximum eclipse, a small bite out of the Moon should have been visible. The eclipse lasted for 1 hour and 15 minutes, with just 11% of the Moon in shadow at maximum.

Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.96; Saros 30)
The Moon approached within 4% of the Earth's umbral shadow at maximum eclipse; 96% of the Moon's disc was partially shaded by the Earth, with the overall eclipse lasting 4 hours and 16 minutes. While less dramatic than a partial eclipse (as no part of the Moon was in complete shadow), a shading across the Moon should have been readily visible to observers.

Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.81; Saros 30)
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 81% 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 exactly.

Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.67; Saros 30)
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 67% 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 42 minutes.

Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.53; Saros 30)
This very subtle penumbral eclipse was essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it lasted 3 hours and 22 minutes, just 53% of the Moon's disc was in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow).

max: 09:01 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.40; Saros 30)
This very subtle penumbral eclipse was essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it lasted 2 hours and 58 minutes, just 40% of the Moon's disc was in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow).

max: 16:13 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.28; Saros 30)
This very subtle penumbral eclipse was essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it lasted 2 hours and 31 minutes, just 28% of the Moon's disc was in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow).
   
7 Aug, 0506 BC
max: 23:31 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.17; Saros 30)
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 1 hour and 59 minutes, which was essentially impossible to see.
   
18 Aug, 0488 BC
max: 06:56 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.07; Saros 30)
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 17 minutes, which was essentially impossible to see.
