August 29, 2110 — Partial Lunar Eclipse — Tshikapa
The animation shows what the eclipse approximately looks like in Tshikapa. Stages and Â鶹ӳ» of the eclipse are outlined below. All Â鶹ӳ» are local time (CAT) for Tshikapa.
| Time | Phase | Event | Direction | Altitude |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4:27 pm Fri, Aug 29 | Not directly visible | Penumbral Eclipse begins Below horizon |  106° | -30.3° |
| 6:12 pm Fri, Aug 29 | Not directly visible | Partial Eclipse begins Below horizon | 100° | -6.2° |
| 6:34 pm Fri, Aug 29 | 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. | 100° | -0.2° |
| 6:37 pm Fri, Aug 29 | Maximum Eclipse Moon is closest to the center of the shadow. 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. | 100° | 0.2° | |
| 7:01 pm Fri, Aug 29 | Partial Eclipse ends Partial moon eclipse ends. Moon close to horizon, so make sure you have free sight to East. | 99° | 5.7° | |
| 8:46 pm Fri, Aug 29 | Penumbral Eclipse ends The Earth's penumbra ends. | 97° | 30.5° |
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 Tshikapa. There are no other locations on Earth where the Moon appears completely covered during this event. The Earth's shadow covers only a small portion of the Moon.
