If there was unusual darkness and this is not just a literary allusion, it had nothing to do with the moon, Jesus was crucified around Passover which occurs at the full moon.
No solar eclipse can last longer than about eight minutes (most are two to four minutes long).
If the crucifixion took place in 33 AD, there was (according to astronomers) a total eclipse of the rising moon on the evening of April 3rd, 33 AD.
A “dark day” was recorded in New England in may, 1780, and was later attributed to forest fires in upstate NY and eastern Canada. Other cases of dark days around the world are related to nearby volcanic activity. A very low cloud ceiling (not all that unusual in early spring) could create relatively dark conditions too.
Or it could have been a supernatural event, God’s direct intervention in the Sun’s ability to cast light during those hours (either the Sun was “turned down” or turned off, or a shielding unobservable from the ground).
But if anyone thinks it was just a very long eclipse by the oon, that cannot happen and even a nor al solar eclipse would not be expected on any day within a week of Passover’s set date.
