| Time | Phase | Event | Direction | Altitude |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3:02 am Fri, Nov 19 | Penumbral Eclipse begins The Earth's penumbra start touching the Moon's face. |  298° | 25.5° | |
| 4:18 am Fri, Nov 19 | Partial Eclipse begins Partial moon eclipse starts - moon is getting red. Moon close to horizon, so make sure you have free sight to West-northwest. | 291° | 9.0° | |
| 5:00 am Fri, Nov 19 | Maximum in Feira de Santana This is the moment when the eclipse reaches its greatest magnitude while the entire Moon is above the horizon in Feira de Santana. The true maximum point of this eclipse cannot be seen in Feira de Santana 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 West-northwest for the best view of the eclipse. | 289° | 0.2° | |
| 5:02 am Fri, Nov 19 | 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. | 289° | -0.2° |

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.
