Maximum in Thomas Point This is the moment when the eclipse reaches its greatest magnitude while the entire Moon is above the horizon in Thomas Point. The true maximum point of this eclipse cannot be seen in Thomas Point 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 Northeast for the best view of the eclipse. 		Map direction Northeast 39°
0.2°
3:40 pm Sun, Dec 31
Penumbral Eclipse ends The Earth's penumbra ends.
Moon close to horizon, recommend going to a high point. 		Map direction Northeast 43°

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.
