Maximum in 48°22'46.8"N, 104°16'21.1"W This is the moment when the eclipse reaches its greatest magnitude while the entire Moon is above the horizon in 48°22'46.8"N, 104°16'21.1"W. The true maximum point of this eclipse cannot be seen in 48°22'46.8"N, 104°16'21.1"W 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 East-northeast for the best view of the eclipse.
