Time	Phase	Event	Direction	Altitude
1:23 pm Fri, Aug 28	Not directly visible	Penumbral Eclipse begins Below horizon	134°	-56.5°
2:33 pm Fri, Aug 28	Not directly visible	Partial Eclipse begins Below horizon	118°	-43.5°
4:12 pm Fri, Aug 28	Not directly visible	Maximum Eclipse Below horizon	106°	-22.3°
5:47 pm Fri, Aug 28	Rising	Moonrise Rising	99°	-0.2°
5:49 pm Fri, Aug 28		Maximum in 14°16'59.1"S, 178°07'50.0"W This is the moment when the eclipse reaches its greatest magnitude while the entire Moon is above the horizon in 14°16'59.1"S, 178°07'50.0"W. The true maximum point of this eclipse cannot be seen in 14°16'59.1"S, 178°07'50.0"W 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 for the best view of the eclipse.	99°	0.2°
5:51 pm Fri, Aug 28		Partial Eclipse ends Partial moon eclipse ends. Moon close to horizon, recommend going to a high point.	98°	0.7°
7:01 pm Fri, Aug 28		Penumbral Eclipse ends The Earth's penumbra ends.	94°	16.6°

The curvature of the shadow's path and the apparent rotation of the Moon's disk is due to the Earth's rotation.

In the past, this day was cloudy 60% of the time (since 2000).
