(umbral mag. 0.00; Saros 31)
|
While technically a partial eclipse, the Moon barely clipped the Earth's umbral shadow, which may have been very difficult to observe in practice; though a shading across the moon from the Earth's penumbral shadow should have been visible at maximum eclipse. The partial eclipse lasted for 9 minutes and 42 seconds.

Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.91; Saros 31)
|
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 91% 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 31 minutes.

Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.76; Saros 31)
|
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 76% 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 10 minutes.

Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.16; Saros 31)
|
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 2 hours and 2 minutes, which was essentially impossible to see.
