| Time | Phase | Event | Direction | Altitude |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4時44分 7月6日 (木) | Penumbral Eclipse begins The Earth's penumbra start touching the Moon's face. |  252° | 28.0° | |

| 6時46分 7月6日 (木) | Maximum in Alofi This is the moment when the eclipse reaches its greatest magnitude while the entire Moon is above the horizon in Alofi. The true maximum point of this eclipse cannot be seen in Alofi because the Moon is below the horizon at that time. Moon close to horizon, so make sure you have free sight to West-southwest. | 246° | 1.9° | |
| 6時58分 7月6日 (木) | 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. | 245° | -0.2° |

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.
During this partial lunar eclipse, the Earth's shadow covers only parts of the Moon, as seen from Alofi. There are no other locations on Earth where the Moon appears completely covered during this event.
Cloud Coverage (7月6日 (木))
