Overview
- Authoritative schedules place the main eclipse window at 09:49–13:17 UT, with totality from 11:04 to 12:03 UT as the Moon passes fully into Earth’s umbra.
- Visibility is broad across the Pacific, the Americas, east Asia and Australia, while multiple reports note Africa and Europe will miss the show.
- In Mexico the full progression, including totality, is expected before dawn, whereas Peru’s space agency says some western areas may catch brief totality and eastern regions only a partial phase near moonset.
- Local astronomers in Santa Fe, Argentina, warn the event will be effectively unobservable there because it coincides with sunrise low on the horizon.
- NASA explains the Moon’s red hue arises from sunlight filtered through Earth’s atmosphere; the event is safe to view with the naked eye, and some outlets disagree on the next comparable eclipse, citing either late 2028 or 2048.
