The partial phase starts at 10:10, when a visible dark shadow begins to creep across the lunar surface. Totality begins at 11:17, as the Moon becomes fully immersed in the umbra, often turning a deep red or copper color.The eclipse reaches its peak at 12:01, when the Moon is closest to the center of Earth’s shadow.

The partial eclipse concludes at 13:51, followed by a gradual fading of the penumbral shadow until the eclipse ends at 09:04.
