Maximum in 14°27'32.8"S, 146°03'16.1"W This is the moment when the eclipse reaches its greatest magnitude while the entire Moon is above the horizon in 14°27'32.8"S, 146°03'16.1"W. The true maximum point of this eclipse cannot be seen in 14°27'32.8"S, 146°03'16.1"W because the Moon is below the horizon at that time.
Moon close to horizon, recommend going to a high point.
