How this calendar works.

Times are converted to Sydney local time using the IANA time zone database. Visibility includes the Moon’s upper edge and atmospheric refraction at the estimated moment of greatest eclipse using -33.8688°, 151.2093° as the city-center location. The altitude shown is for the Moon’s center.

Maximum times are estimates and may shift slightly. NASA prediction data.

Terrain, buildings, haze, and the full duration of each eclipse can change what you actually observe. Use the interactive planner with your exact location for a more personal horizon check.
