Hey guys. I'm trying to do research on lunar eclipses and when a tetrad (four total lunar eclipses in a row with no other eclipses in between) falls exclusively on Jewish feasts (two on Passover, two on Sukkot). I've seen the claim made several times that since 1 AD, there have been seven and the one we're in right now is the eighth. I'm trying to verify this myself, but I'm having difficulty getting a list of past Passover dates. Any suggestions?
....humpgh. It's after sundown...after Shabbat has started. I guess I won't get an answer to that until Sunday. D'oh!

Nevermind, I found this list of date converters!

@El'endiaStarman If you want, i can, without too much trouble, script up a list of dates for the past ~1500 years.

@Scimonster Actually, I found another source that had all eight such instances, and I also found out that there's a Python library that can convert dates between the Hebrew, Julian, and Gregorian calendars. That combined with a webpage scraper to get total lunar eclipses from NASA's website would do the trick. Thank you for offering, though. :)
