During the 2nd century BCE1, Earth experienced 243 lunar eclipses as follows:
All Eclipses = 243 = 100.0%
Penumbral (N) = 88 = 36.2%
Partial (P) = 86 = 35.4%
Total (T) = 69 = 28.4%
Eclipses in which some portion of the Moon passes into Earth
's umbral shadow are classified as umbral eclipses .
All total and partial lunar eclipses are umbral eclipses.
Statistics for umbral eclipses during the century are as follows:
Umbral (P&T) = 155 = 63.8%
Central2 (T±) = 48 = 19.8%
Non-Central (T) = 21 = 8.6%
There are two to five lunar eclipses in each calendar year. The distribution of eclipses each year during this century are as follows:
Number of Years with 2 Eclipses: 68
Number of Years with 3 Eclipses: 22
Number of Years with 4 Eclipses: 9
Number of Years with 5 Eclipses: 1 ( -103)
Two eclipses in same month: -0165 May 02 & -0165 May 31
When four consecutive lunar eclipses are all
total eclipses, the group is known as a tetrad.
The following tetrads occur during this century:
Tetrad (Four Consecutive Total Eclipses): -189 - -188
Tetrad (Four Consecutive Total Eclipses): -167 - -166
Tetrad (Four Consecutive Total Eclipses): -149 - -148
During any given century,
old Saros series end while new ones begin.
The year and Saros number of these events are as follows:
6 Saros Series' begin (Year/Saros): -197/ 83 -190/ 77 -150/ 79 -125/ 78 -121/ 80 -103/ 85
2 Saros Series' end (Year/Saros): -194/ 37 -111/ 38
The longest and shortest lunar eclipses of the century and other eclipse extrema are listed below.
Longest Total Lunar Eclipse: -0116 Mar 31 Duration = 01h45m17s
Shortest Total Lunar Eclipse: -0189 Aug 23 Duration = 00h17m31s
Longest Partial Lunar Eclipse: -0195 Jul 01 Duration = 03h27m37s
Shortest Partial Lunar Eclipse: -0180 Mar 19 Duration = 00h36m02s
Largest Total Lunar Eclipse: -0127 May 02 Umbra Magnitude = 1.8594
Smallest Total Lunar Eclipse: -0166 Jun 11 Umbra Magnitude = 1.0137
Largest Partial Lunar Eclipse: -0196 Jan 16 Umbra Magnitude = 0.9882
Smallest Partial Lunar Eclipse: -0180 Mar 19 Umbra Magnitude = 0.0223
Largest Penumbral Lunar Eclipse: -0186 Jun 22 Pen. Magnitude = 1.0873 Smallest Penumbral Lunar Eclipse: -0121 Jan 27 Pen. Magnitude = 0.0033
Total penumbral eclipses are lunar eclipses in which the entire Moon passes through the penumbra but misses the umbral shadow. Total penumbral eclipses (and magnitudes) for the century are:
Total Penumbral Eclipse: -0198 Mar 09 Pen. Magnitude = 1.0053
Total Penumbral Eclipse: -0187 Aug 01 Pen. Magnitude = 1.0279
Total Penumbral Eclipse: -0186 Jun 22 Pen. Magnitude = 1.0873
Local circumstances at greatest eclipse3 for every event during the century are presented in the following catalog. The calendar date and Universal Time of the instant of greatest eclipse are found in the first two columns. The eclipse type is given (T=Total, P=Partial, or N=Penumbral) along with the Saros series. Gamma is the distance of the Moon's center from the shadow axis of Earth at greatest eclipse (in Earth radii). The penumbral and umbral magnitudes of the eclipse are defined as the fractions of the Moon's diameter obscured by each shadow at greatest eclipse. The semi-durations of the partial and total phases of the eclipse are given to the nearest minute. Finally, the Greenwich Sidereal Time at 00:00 U.T., along with the Moon's Geocentric Right Ascension and Declination at greatest eclipse complete each record. For a detailed key and additional information about the catalog, see: Key to Catalog of Lunar Eclipses.
For any eclipse in the catalog, the start and end times of the partial eclipse phases can be calculated by respectively subtracting and adding the semi-duration of the partial phase (S.D. Par) to the instant of greatest eclipse. Similarly, the start and end times of the total eclipse can be calculated by either subtracting or adding the semi-duration of the total phase (S.D. Tot) to the instant of greatest eclipse. For a detailed example, see Contact - Key to Lunar Eclipse Catalogs.
To determine whether an eclipse is visible from a specific geographic location, it is simply a matter of calculating the Moon's altitude and azimuth during each phase of the eclipse. The calculations can be performed on any pocket calculator having trigonometric functions (SIN, COS, TAN). Armed with the latitude and longitude of the location, the lunar eclipse catalog provides all the additional information needed to make the calculations. For the equations and an example of how to calculate the Moon's altitude for a specific location, see Altitude - Key to Lunar Eclipse Catalogs.
1The terms BCE and CE are abbreviations for "Before Common Era" and "Common Era," respectively. They are the secular equivalents to the BC and AD dating conventions. (See: Year Dating Conventions )2Central lunar eclipses are eclipses in which some portion of the Moon passes the central axis of Earth's umbral shadow. All penumbral and partial lunar eclipses are non-central eclipses since the Moon misses the shadow axis. However, total eclipses may be either non-central (frequently) or central (occasionally). Central total eclipses are longer and usually darker than non-central total eclipses.
3Greatest eclipse is defined as the instant when the Moon passes closest to the axis of Earth's shadow. The instant of greatest eclipse corresponds to the maximum phase of the eclipse.

The Julian calendar is used for all dates up to 1582 Oct 04. After that date, the Gregorian calendar is used. Due to the Gregorian Calendar reform, the day after 1582 Oct 04 (Julian calendar) is 1582 Oct 15 (Gregorian calendar). Note that Great Britian did not adopt the Gregorian calendar until 1752. For more information, see Calendars.
The Julian calendar does not include the year 0, so the year 1 BCE is followed by the year 1 CE. This is awkward for arithmetic calculations. In this catalog, dates are counted using the astronomical numbering system which recognizes the year 0. Historians should note the numerical difference of one year between astronomical dates and BCE dates. Thus, the year 0 corresponds to 1 BCE, and the year -100 corresponds to 101 BCE, etc.. (See: Year Dating Conventions )
There is some historical uncertainty as to which years from 43 BCE to 8 CE were counted as leap years. For the purposes of this catalog, we will assume that all Julian years divisible by 4 will be counted as leap years.
Eclipse predictions presented here are based on j=2 ephemerides for the Sun (Newcomb, 1895) and Moon (Brown, 1919, and Eckert, Jones and Clark, 1954). A revised value used for the Moon's secular acceleration is n-dot = -26 arc-sec/cy*cy, as deduced by Morrison and Ward (1975) from 250 years of Mercury transit observations.
The largest uncertainty in the eclipse predictions is caused by fluctuations in Earth's rotation due primarily to tidal friction of the Moon. The resultant drift in apparent clock time is expressed as delta-T. The value for delta-T was determined as follows:
1) pre-1600: delta T was calculated from empirical fits to historical records derived by Stephenson (1997)
2) 1600-present: delta T was obtained from published observations
3) future: delta-T was extrapolated from current values and a model of tidal effects
All eclipse calculations are by Fred Espenak, and he assumes full responsibility for their accuracy. Some of the information presented in these tables is based on Fifty Year Canon of Lunar Eclipses: 1986 - 2035.
