June 25, 2029 — Total Lunar Eclipse — Aitutaki
The animation shows what the eclipse approximately looks like in Aitutaki. Stages and times of the eclipse are outlined below. All times are local time (CKT) for Aitutaki.
| Time | Phase | Event | Direction | Altitude |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2:34 pm Mon, Jun 25 | Not directly visible | Penumbral Eclipse begins Below horizon |  144° | -39.3° |
| 3:32 pm Mon, Jun 25 | Not directly visible | Partial Eclipse begins Below horizon | 133° | -30.8° |
| 4:31 pm Mon, Jun 25 | Not directly visible | Total Eclipse begins Below horizon | 124° | -20.4° |
| 5:22 pm Mon, Jun 25 | Not directly visible | Maximum Eclipse Below horizon | 118° | -10.7° |
| 6:10 pm Mon, Jun 25 | Rising | Moonrise Rising, but the combination of a very low moon and the total eclipse phase will make the moon so dim that it will be extremely difficult to view until moon gets higher in the sky or the total phase ends. | 114° | -0.2° |
| 6:13 pm Mon, Jun 25 | Total Eclipse ends Total moon eclipse ends. Since the Moon is near the horizon at this time, we recommend going to a high point or finding an unobstructed area with free sight to East-southeast for the best view of the eclipse. Additionally, the eclipsed moon combined with dimming near horizon might make the Moon very hard or impossible to see. | 114° | 0.2° | |
| 6:14 pm Mon, Jun 25 | Maximum in Aitutaki This is the moment when the eclipse reaches its greatest magnitude while the entire Moon is above the horizon in Aitutaki. The true maximum point of this eclipse cannot be seen in Aitutaki because the Moon is below the horizon at that time. Since the Moon is near the horizon at this time, we recommend going to a high point or finding an unobstructed area with free sight to East-southeast for the best view of the eclipse. | 114° | 0.5° | |
| 7:11 pm Mon, Jun 25 | Partial Eclipse ends Partial moon eclipse ends. | 110° | 12.1° | |
| 8:09 pm Mon, Jun 25 | Penumbral Eclipse ends The Earth's penumbra ends. | 107° | 24.6° |
How to use altitude & direction to find in the sky
The curvature of the shadow's path and the apparent rotation of the Moon's disk is due to the Earth's rotation.
The total phase of this lunar eclipse is not visible in Aitutaki, but it can be observed there as a partial lunar eclipse. The Earth's shadow covers a large portion of the Moon, so this is still a nice sight.
