Time	Phase	Event	Direction	Altitude
06:44 Tue, 3 Mar		Penumbral Eclipse begins The Earth's penumbra start touching the Moon's face. Moon close to horizon, recommend going to a high point.	287°	1.4°
07:02 Tue, 3 Mar		Maximum in 71°56'51.8"N, 23°45'40.3"W This is the moment when the eclipse reaches its greatest magnitude while the entire Moon is above the horizon in 71°56'51.8"N, 23°45'40.3"W. The true maximum point of this eclipse cannot be seen in 71°56'51.8"N, 23°45'40.3"W 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 West-northwest for the best view of the eclipse.	291°	0.2°
07:08 Tue, 3 Mar	Setting	Moonset Setting	292°	-0.2°
07:50 Tue, 3 Mar	Not directly visible	Partial Eclipse begins Below horizon	302°	-3.5°

12:23 Tue, 3 Mar	Not directly visible	Penumbral Eclipse ends Below horizon	8°	-13.1°

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