Time	Phase	Event	Direction	Altitude
15:24 Tue, 17 Aug	Not directly visible	Penumbral Eclipse begins Below horizon	121°	-26.9°
17:13 Tue, 17 Aug	Not directly visible	Maximum Eclipse Below horizon	106°	-5.4°
17:35 Tue, 17 Aug	Rising	Moonrise Rising	103°	-0.2°
17:38 Tue, 17 Aug		Maximum in 26°15'43.0"S, 150°41'47.0"E This is the moment when the eclipse reaches its greatest magnitude while the entire Moon is above the horizon in 26°15'43.0"S, 150°41'47.0"E. The true maximum point of this eclipse cannot be seen in 26°15'43.0"S, 150°41'47.0"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 East-southeast for the best view of the eclipse.	103°	0.2°
19:03 Tue, 17 Aug		Penumbral Eclipse ends The Earth's penumbra ends.	94°	18.0°

The curvature of the shadow's path and the apparent rotation of the Moon's disk is due to the Earth's rotation.
