The eclipse begins with the Moon entering the faint penumbral shadow at 04:20 (GMT-4), though this stage is often difficult to notice. The partial phase starts at 05:15, when a visible dark shadow begins to creep across the lunar surface. Totality begins at 06:17, as the Moon becomes fully immersed in the umbra, often turning a deep red or copper color.The eclipse reaches its peak at 06:56, when the Moon is closest to the center of Earth’s shadow. After that, totality ends at 07:36, and the Moon begins to emerge from the umbra. The partial eclipse concludes at 08:38, followed by a gradual fading of the penumbral shadow until the eclipse ends at 04:20.
