| Time | Phase | Event | Direction | Altitude |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 16時44分 3月3日 (火) | Not directly visible | Penumbral Eclipse begins Below horizon |  43° | -29.8° |
| 17時50分 3月3日 (火) | Not directly visible | Partial Eclipse begins Below horizon | 57° | -21.2° |

| 19時33分 3月3日 (火) | Not directly visible | Maximum Eclipse Below horizon | 77° | -4.9° |
| 19時57分 3月3日 (火) | Rising | Moonrise Rising, but the combination of a very low moon and the total eclipse phase will make the moon so dim that it will be extremely difficult to view until moon gets higher in the sky or the total phase ends. | 81° | -0.2° |
| 20時02分 3月3日 (火) | Total Eclipse ends Total moon eclipse ends. 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 for the best view of the eclipse. Additionally, the eclipsed moon combined with dimming near horizon might make the Moon very hard or impossible to see. | 82° | 0.5° | |
| 20時09分 3月3日 (火) | Maximum in Ürümqi This is the moment when the eclipse reaches its greatest magnitude while the entire Moon is above the horizon in Ürümqi. The true maximum point of this eclipse cannot be seen in Ürümqi because the Moon is below the horizon at that time. Moon close to horizon, recommend going to a high point. | 83° | 1.5° | |
| 21時17分 3月3日 (火) | Partial Eclipse ends Partial moon eclipse ends. | 94° | 12.9° | |
| 22時23分 3月3日 (火) | Penumbral Eclipse ends The Earth's penumbra ends. | 107° | 24.0° |
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 Ürümqi, but it can be observed there as a partial lunar eclipse. The Earth's shadow covers a large portion of the Moon, so this is still a nice sight.
