2026年3月3日火曜日 — Total Lunar Eclipse — Augusta
The animation shows what the eclipse approximately looks like in Augusta. Stages and times of the eclipse are outlined below. All times are local time (EST) for Augusta.
| Time | Phase | Event | Direction | Altitude |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3時44分 3月3日 (火) | Penumbral Eclipse begins The Earth's penumbra start touching the Moon's face. |  253° | 25.5° | |
| 4時50分 3月3日 (火) | Partial Eclipse begins Partial moon eclipse starts - moon is getting red. | 264° | 14.1° | |
| 6時04分 3月3日 (火) | Total Eclipse begins Total moon eclipse starts - completely red moon. Moon close to horizon, recommend going to a high point. Additionally, the eclipsed moon combined with dimming near horizon might make the Moon very hard or impossible to see. | 277° | 1.3° | |
| 6時11分 3月3日 (火) | Maximum in Augusta This is the moment when the eclipse reaches its greatest magnitude while the entire Moon is above the horizon in Augusta. The true maximum point of this eclipse cannot be seen in Augusta 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 for the best view of the eclipse. | 278° | 0.2° | |
| 6時14分 3月3日 (火) | 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. | 278° | -0.2° |
| 6時33分 3月3日 (火) | Not directly visible | Maximum Eclipse Below horizon | 282° | -4.1° |

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.
