  1. ^ Only considering maximum of eclipse. Strikethrough text if the moment of maximum is before sunrise or after sunset, indicating that only a smaller magnitude is actually visible.
  2. ^ If the 4th contact is after sunset and thus not visible, sunset time in underlined text is used instead.
  3. ^ Total or annular.

  1. ^ Only considering maximum of eclipse. Same value regardless of the location. Strikethrough text if the moment of maximum is before moonrise or after moonset, indicating that only a smaller magnitude is actually visible.
  2. ^ If the 1st contact is before moonrise and thus not visible, moonrise time in underlined text is used instead as start of partial phase.
  3. ^ If the 2nd contact is before moonrise and thus not visible, moonrise time in underlined text is used instead as start of total phase.
  4. ^ If the 3rd contact is after moonset and thus not visible, moonset time in underlined text is used instead as end of total phase.
  5. ^ If the 4th contact is after moonset and thus not visible, moonset time in underlined text is used instead as end of partial phase.
