Overview
- NASA’s schedule places totality at roughly 58 minutes within an event lasting about five and a half hours.
- Visibility favors eastern Asia, Australia, the Pacific and much of the Americas, with little to no view for Europe and Africa according to NASA.
- In the United States and Canada, the penumbral phase begins about 3:44 a.m. ET, totality runs from roughly 6:04 to 7:03 a.m. ET with a peak near 6:34 a.m., and the eclipse ends around 9:23 a.m. ET.
- India will catch mainly the final stages near moonrise, with northeastern states best placed; the IMD characterizes this as a deep total eclipse (magnitude ~1.155) during Holi week.
- Reporting diverges on the date of the next total lunar eclipse, with outlets citing either late 2028 or 2029.
