The animation shows what the eclipse approximately looks like. Stages and times of the eclipse are outlined below.
| Time | Phase | Event | Direction | Altitude |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10:12 am Sun, Feb 21 | Not directly visible | Penumbral Eclipse begins Below horizon |  98° | -16.1° |
| 12:12 pm Sun, Feb 21 | Not directly visible | Maximum Eclipse Below horizon | 72° | -3.2° |
| 12:40 pm Sun, Feb 21 | Rising | Moonrise Rising | 66° | -0.2° |
| 12:45 pm Sun, Feb 21 | Maximum in 65°00'S, 60°00'W This is the moment when the eclipse reaches its greatest magnitude while the entire Moon is above the horizon in 65°00'S, 60°00'W. The true maximum point of this eclipse cannot be seen in 65°00'S, 60°00'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-northeast for the best view of the eclipse. | 65° | 0.2° | |
| 2:13 pm Sun, Feb 21 | Penumbral Eclipse ends The Earth's penumbra ends. Moon close to horizon, so make sure you have free sight to Northeast. | 45° | 7.5° |
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.
Cloud Coverage (Feb 21)
