Sources
Timing and geometry from NASA’s eclipse catalogs. Verify local circumstances before you travel.
The centerline and totality band are self-computed from public-domain NASA/Espenak Besselian elements — matching NASA’s published path to within ~0.15 km. Lunar-limb relief and local terrain can shift the true edges by ~1–3 km.
