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. | 95° | 0.2° | |
| 5:55 pm Sun, Sep 7 | Penumbral Eclipse ends The Earth's penumbra ends. Moon close to horizon, recommend going to a high point. | 94° | 1.4° |
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 was not visible in Ipatinga, but it could be observed there as a penumbral lunar eclipse. A penumbral lunar eclipse can be a bit hard to see as the shadowed part is only a little bit fainter than the rest of the Moon.
