|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3:02 am Tue, Nov 8 | Penumbral Eclipse begins The Earth's penumbra start touching the Moon's face. |  257° | 39.2° | |

| 5:59 am Tue, Nov 8 | Maximum Eclipse Moon is closest to the center of the shadow. Moon close to horizon, so make sure you have free sight to West-northwest. | 285° | 6.9° | |
| 6:41 am Tue, Nov 8 | Total Eclipse ends Total moon eclipse ends. 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 West-northwest for the best view of the eclipse. Additionally, the eclipsed moon combined with dimming near horizon might make the Moon very hard or impossible to see. | 292° | 0.0° | |

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.
