Local Circumstances for Lunar Eclipses: 1976-2000
Instructions:

The following table gives dates and times for all Lunar Eclipse during this preiod. To calculate
the Moon's altitude for any location, enter the place name, latitude and longitude in the green
box below. The calculated altitudes for that location will appear to the right in the last seven
columns of the table. The Excel spreadsheet automatically color codes each altitude grey or
yellow depending on whether the Moon is below or above the horizon, respectively. Additional
locations can be typed in or select locations listed in the "Locations" tab below using "copy"

The Moon's coordinates (RA & Dec) given in this table are for the instant of greatest eclipse.
Due to its orbital motion, the Moon's position may differ by up to 1.5 degrees at the start or end of the eclipse.
Furthermore, horizontal parallax can shift the Moon's apparent position up to about 1 degree around moonrise and moonset.
Consequently,the Moon's actual altitude at any location may differ by up to 2.5 degrees from this table due to these factors.

You may copy any location below and paste it into the Lunar Eclipse table to calculate the Moon's altitude for that location.
