Maximum in 42°38'36.0"N, 24°48'26.0"E This is the moment when the eclipse reaches its greatest magnitude while the entire Moon is above the horizon in 42°38'36.0"N, 24°48'26.0"E. The true maximum point of this eclipse cannot be seen in 42°38'36.0"N, 24°48'26.0"E because the Moon is below the horizon at that time.
Moon close to horizon, recommend going to a high point.
