The animation shows what the eclipse approximately looks like in Tbilisi. Stages and times of the eclipse are outlined below. All times are local time (GET) for Tbilisi.
| Time | Phase | Event | Direction | Altitude |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4:35 pm Mon, Nov 11 | Partial Transit begins Mercury touches the Sun's edge. |  235° | 10.6° | |
| 4:36 pm Mon, Nov 11 | Full Transit begins Mercury is fully within the Sun's edge. Watch out for the black drop effect, an optical illusion seemingly connecting Mercury's disc to the Sun's edge. | 235° | 10.3° | |
| 5:41 pm Mon, Nov 11 | Nearest Sun's center Mercury is closest to the center of the Sun as seen from Tbilisi. Since the Sun is near the horizon at this time, we recommend going to a high point or finding an unobstructed area with free sight to West-southwest for the best view of the transit. Additionally, the eclipsed moon combined with dimming near horizon might make the Moon very hard or impossible to see. | 246° | 0.2° | |
| 5:43 pm Mon, Nov 11 | Transit ongoing during sunset Mercury Transit is already ongoing during sunset in Tbilisi. Since the Sun is near the horizon at this time, we recommend going to a high point or finding an unobstructed area with free sight to West-southwest for the best view of the transit. | 246° | -0.1° |
