An eclipse's time is the moment of greatest eclipse. A lunar eclipse can be seen from anywhere the Moon is above the horizon at the time. An annular solar eclipse shows its ring of fire only along the narrow path the Moon's shadow crosses; across a much wider area around it, it appears partial. Not every eclipse is visible from the US.
