Talk:Lists of lunar eclipses

new tables
I made a first pass building up new table, one per century, 1500-2500. NASA had the tables further out, but 1000 years sounded like a good start.

Some of the entries didn't sort perfectly chronologically, didn't take time to fix it. I reconstructed U1-U4 times from the greatest eclipse +/- half-durations, but didn't have penumbral duration data to compute P1,P4 times.

When I get a chance, I'll try converting the tables into a template-database, so the same data can be shared in different formats - event article stat tables, chronological lists, saros lists, etc.

The NASA website has charts from 1901-2100, URLs constructible from the eclipse date/type, so I should be able to automate links for those too.

I might be able to partially automate some shadow/constellation/earth chart generation from my astronomy program, but it's still a sizable project. I'll probably at best reproduce total/near-total lunar eclipse views in the 1901-2100 range.

Century headings
Why is there no heading for the twentyfirst century?JohnthePilot (talk) 18:04, 29 July 2018 (UTC)
