According to the NASA web site, on October 8th the lunar eclipse umbral phase begins at 1025 UT and mid eclipse is at 1054 UT. The end of totality is 1124 UT. That translates to 0425 MDT for the start of the umbral phase and mid eclipse is at 0454 and totality ending at 0534 MDT.. Sunrise on that day is at 734 MDT and moonset is at 0743, almost 3 full hours past full moon time. Please help me understand why this eclipse will not be visible here.
