| 16 h 49 jeu 20 déc | Maximum in Corona This is the moment when the eclipse reaches its greatest magnitude while the entire Moon is above the horizon in Corona. The true maximum point of this eclipse cannot be seen in Corona 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. | 0.2° | ||
| 17 h 41 jeu 20 déc | Penumbral Eclipse ends The Earth's penumbra ends. Moon close to horizon, so make sure you have free sight to East-northeast. | 9.2° |
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 is not visible in Corona, but it can 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.
