The animation shows what the eclipse approximately looked like in Chicago. Stages and times of the eclipse are outlined below. All times were local time (CDT) for Chicago.
| Time | Phase | Event | Direction | Altitude |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3時47分 5月26日 (水) | Penumbral Eclipse begins The Earth's penumbra start touching the Moon's face. |  224° | 13.5° | |
| 4時45分 5月26日 (水) | Partial Eclipse begins Partial moon eclipse starts - moon is getting red. Moon close to horizon, so make sure you have free sight to Southwest. | 234° | 5.6° | |
| 5時23分 5月26日 (水) | Maximum in Chicago This is the moment when the eclipse reaches its greatest magnitude while the entire Moon is above the horizon in Chicago. The true maximum point of this eclipse cannot be seen in Chicago 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-southwest for the best view of the eclipse. | 241° | 0.2° | |
| 5時26分 5月26日 (水) | 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. | 241° | -0.2° |
| 6時11分 5月26日 (水) | Not directly visible | Total Eclipse begins Below horizon | 248° | -8.3° |
| 6時18分 5月26日 (水) | Not directly visible | Maximum Eclipse Below horizon | 249° | -9.5° |
| 6時25分 5月26日 (水) | Not directly visible | Total Eclipse ends Below horizon | 250° | -10.7° |
| 7時52分 5月26日 (水) | Not directly visible | Partial Eclipse ends Below horizon | 263° | -25.8° |
| 8時49分 5月26日 (水) | Not directly visible | Penumbral Eclipse ends Below horizon | 272° | -36.0° |
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 was not visible in Chicago, but it could be observed there as a partial lunar eclipse.
