The animation shows what the eclipse approximately looks like in Comilla. Stages and times of the eclipse are outlined below. All times are local time (BST) for Comilla.
| Time | Phase | Event | Direction | Altitude |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2:44 pm Tue, Mar 3 | Not directly visible | Penumbral Eclipse begins Below horizon |  57° | -40.5° |
| 3:50 pm Tue, Mar 3 | Not directly visible | Partial Eclipse begins Below horizon | 68° | -27.8° |
| 5:04 pm Tue, Mar 3 | Not directly visible | Total Eclipse begins Below horizon | 77° | -12.2° |
| 5:33 pm Tue, Mar 3 | Not directly visible | Maximum Eclipse Below horizon | 80° | -5.8° |
| 5:56 pm Tue, Mar 3 | Rising | Moonrise Rising, but the combination of a very low moon and the total eclipse phase will make the moon so dim that it will be extremely difficult to view until moon gets higher in the sky or the total phase ends. | 83° | -0.2° |
| 6:02 pm Tue, Mar 3 | Total Eclipse ends Total moon eclipse ends. Moon close to horizon, recommend going to a high point. Additionally, the eclipsed moon combined with dimming near horizon might make the Moon very hard or impossible to see. | 83° | 0.9° | |
| 6:09 pm Tue, Mar 3 | Maximum in Comilla This is the moment when the eclipse reaches its greatest magnitude while the entire Moon is above the horizon in Comilla. The true maximum point of this eclipse cannot be seen in Comilla because the Moon is below the horizon at that time. Moon close to horizon, so make sure you have free sight to East. | 84° | 2.3° | |
| 7:17 pm Tue, Mar 3 | Partial Eclipse ends Partial moon eclipse ends. | 91° | 17.0° | |
| 8:23 pm Tue, Mar 3 | Penumbral Eclipse ends The Earth's penumbra ends. | 98° | 31.5° |
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.
The total phase of this lunar eclipse is not visible in Comilla, but it can be observed there as a partial lunar eclipse. The Earth's shadow covers a large portion of the Moon, so this is still a nice sight.
