Penumbral Eclipse begins The Earth's penumbra start touching the Moon's face.Map direction West-southwest 236°

5:03 am Thu, Aug 7
Total Eclipse begins Total moon eclipse starts - completely red moon.
Moon close to horizon, so make sure you have free sight to West-southwest.
Additionally, the eclipsed moon combined with dimming near horizon might make the Moon very hard or impossible to see.		Map direction West-southwest 252°

5:10 am Thu, Aug 7
Maximum in 18°59'41.2"N, 51°58'44.7"E This is the moment when the eclipse reaches its greatest magnitude while the entire Moon is above the horizon in 18°59'41.2"N, 51°58'44.7"E. The true maximum point of this eclipse cannot be seen in 18°59'41.2"N, 51°58'44.7"E 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-southwest for the best view of the eclipse.		Map direction West-southwest 252°

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.
