| Time | Phase | Event | Direction | Altitude |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 12:57 pm Fri, Mar 14 | Not directly visible | Penumbral Eclipse begins Below horizon |  24° | -48.1° |
| 2:09 pm Fri, Mar 14 | Not directly visible | Partial Eclipse begins Below horizon | 46° | -40.2° |
| 3:26 pm Fri, Mar 14 | Not directly visible | Total Eclipse begins Below horizon | 63° | -28.3° |
| 3:58 pm Fri, Mar 14 | Not directly visible | Maximum Eclipse Below horizon | 69° | -22.5° |
| 4:31 pm Fri, Mar 14 | Not directly visible | Total Eclipse ends Below horizon | 74° | -16.5° |
| 5:47 pm Fri, Mar 14 | Not directly visible | Partial Eclipse ends Below horizon | 86° | -1.1° |
| 5:53 pm Fri, Mar 14 | Rising | Moonrise Rising | 87° | -0.2° |
| 5:56 pm Fri, Mar 14 | Maximum in 36°12'17"N, 138°15'10"E This is the moment when the eclipse reaches its greatest magnitude while the entire Moon is above the horizon in 36°12'17"N, 138°15'10"E. The true maximum point of this eclipse cannot be seen in 36°12'17"N, 138°15'10"E 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. | 87° | 0.3° | |
| 7:00 pm Fri, Mar 14 | Penumbral Eclipse ends The Earth's penumbra ends. | 97° | 12.1° |
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.
