September 15, 1913 — Total Lunar Eclipse — Dhaka
The animation shows what the eclipse approximately looked like in Dhaka. Stages and times of the eclipse are outlined below. All times were local time (HMT) for Dhaka.
| Time | Phase | Event | Direction | Altitude |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3:34 pm Mon, Sep 15 | Not directly visible | Penumbral Eclipse begins Below horizon | -31.5° | |
| 4:46 pm Mon, Sep 15 | Not directly visible | Partial Eclipse begins Below horizon | -15.7° | |
| 5:52 pm Mon, Sep 15 | Rising | Moonrise Rising, but the combination of a very low moon and the total eclipse phase will make the moon so dim that it will be extremely difficult to view until moon gets higher in the sky or the total phase ends. | -0.2° | |
| 5:54 pm Mon, Sep 15 | Total Eclipse begins Total moon eclipse starts - completely red moon. Since the Moon is near the horizon at this time, we recommend going to a high point or finding an unobstructed area with free sight to East for the best view of the eclipse. Additionally, the eclipsed moon combined with dimming near horizon might make the Moon very hard or impossible to see. | 0.2° | ||

How to use altitude & direction to find in the sky
The curvature of the shadow's path and the apparent rotation of the Moon's disk is due to the Earth's rotation.
This total lunar eclipse was fully visible in Dhaka. The total lunar eclipse is sometimes called a blood moon, as the Moon turns red.
