| Time | Phase | Event | Direction | Altitude |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 9:12 pm Sat, Feb 20 | Penumbral Eclipse begins The Earth's penumbra start touching the Moon's face. 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 Northeast for the best view of the eclipse. |  54° | -0.1° | |
| 11:12 pm Sat, Feb 20 | Maximum Eclipse Moon is closest to the center of the shadow. Moon close to horizon, so make sure you have free sight to North-northeast. | 26° | 6.0° | |
| 1:13 am Sun, Feb 21 | Penumbral Eclipse ends The Earth's penumbra ends. Moon close to horizon, so make sure you have free sight to North. | 357° | 8.5° |
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.
