The Moon will be 6% of its diameter into the Earth's umbral shadow, and should be significantly darkened. The partial eclipse will last for 3 hours and 22 minutes in total.

The penumbral eclipse lasts for 5 hours and 33 minutes. The partial eclipse lasts for 3 hours and 22 minutes. The total eclipse lasts for 37 minutes and 30 seconds. Maximum eclipse is at 02:31:17 UT.

Interactive Map

This map shows the visibility of the eclipse at maximum eclipse, when it will be visible within the bright area on the map. Note that the map is approximate, and if you are near the edge of the area of visibility, the moon will be very close to the horizon and may not be practically visible.

You can use the zoom controls to zoom in and out, and pan to see areas of interest. The green marker in the centre shows where the Moon will be directly overhead at maximum eclipse.

The interactive map is currently not available.
