Maximum in Ilha do Cavalo
This is the moment when the eclipse reaches its greatest magnitude while the entire Moon is above the horizon in Ilha do Cavalo. The true maximum point of this eclipse cannot be seen in Ilha do Cavalo because the Moon is below the horizon at that time. Moon close to horizon, recommend going to a high point. |

| 6:53 am Tue, Aug 17 | Setting | Moonset Setting, but the combination of a very low moon and the total eclipse phase makes the Moon so dim before it sets, that it might disappear from view some time before it sets. |
