| Time | Phase | Event | Direction | Altitude |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 7:32 am Mon, Nov 30 | Penumbral Eclipse begins The Earth's penumbra start touching the Moon's face. Moon close to horizon, recommend going to a high point. |  303° | 1.0° | |
| 7:39 am Mon, Nov 30 | Maximum in Frampton This is the moment when the eclipse reaches its greatest magnitude while the entire Moon is above the horizon in Frampton. The true maximum point of this eclipse cannot be seen in Frampton 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 Northwest for the best view of the eclipse. | 304° | 0.2° | |
| 7:44 am Mon, Nov 30 | Setting | Moonset Setting, but the combination of a very low moon and the total eclipse phase makes the Moon so dim before it sets, that it might disappear from view some time before it sets. | 305° | -0.2° |
| 9:42 am Mon, Nov 30 | Not directly visible | Maximum Eclipse Below horizon | 329° | -12.2° |
| 11:53 am Mon, Nov 30 | Not directly visible | Penumbral Eclipse ends Below horizon | 359° | -16.9° |
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.
