The last three buttons are for my own use. Considering that the shadow and the bright side of the Moon are 8 stops apart, you might be wondering if there is value in bracketing the shots to capture detail in both. Select one or more eclipses, and then click on one of the three action buttons to the right. Powered by eEclipser ©2006-2021 Xavier M. Know more about ΔT retrodiction or 5MCLE’s ΔT model.Įnter the criteria, and then click on the Search button (don’t forget to read the instructions to know more). Be aware that the uncertainty in Earth’s rotational period expressed in the parameter ΔT has an impact on the geographic visibility of eclipses in the past and future. Thus, the astronomical year 0 corresponds to 1 BCE, and astronomical year -1 corresponds to 2 BCE, etc.ĭetailed information, Google Maps and Google Earth kmz files for each of the 12,064 lunar eclipses (total, partial or penumbral) can be generated on-the-fly from this Web page. A partial eclipse of the Moon occurs when the Moon passes through only part of Earths umbra or only its penumbra. Historians should note there is a difference of one year between astronomical dates and BCE dates. The moon will slip into Earth’s shadow for 3 hours, 28 minutes. Totality begins: The entire Moon is now in the. The part of the Moon inside the umbra will appear very dark. To the naked eye, as the Moon moves into the umbra, it looks like a bite is being taken out of the lunar disk. Years in this catalog are numbered astronomically and include the year 0. The next partial lunar eclipse is coming up Nov. Partial eclipse begins: The Moon begins to enter Earth’s umbra and the partial eclipse begins. The data available is described in greater detail in the Key to Lunar Eclipse Catalogs.

All the data accessed through this interface is provided by Fred Espenak ( NASA Technical Publication). The statistical distribution of eclipse types for this interval is as follows : 4,207 partial eclipses, 4,378 penumbral eclipses and 3,479 total eclipses.
