sees the occultation after sunset graze limit city sees it near miss

The gold line is the north limit: along it Mercury grazes the Moon's northern edge. North of the line it is a near miss — from Bandung, ID Mercury passes just 14.2′ outside the limb — and a graze seen from right on the line, Mercury blinking in and out behind lunar mountains, is the finest view of all.

The violet shading is where the Sun has set by the time of the event, so the reappearance happens in a darkening sky.

At the Moon's edge

Mercury's path across the Moon from your location — north up, east to the left as in binoculars. Times here are computed in your browser from the same ephemeris as the table, to the same ±2 s. Drag the slider to move it along its track.

City by city

Times are for the Moon's mean limb; the real limb's mountains and valleys shift each contact by up to a couple of seconds. Disappears is the moment Mercury is fully hidden (its disc takes from the earlier time to slide in); reappears is when the first sliver returns.

How to watch

Method & accuracy

Positions from the JPL DE431 ephemeris (Skyfield), ΔT = 69.1 s, the Moon as a sphere of mean radius 1737.4 km — contact times are therefore ±2 s or so against the true, mountainous limb, and the limit line is drawn from a 1.0° grid (≈10 km). Mercury's own disc (8″ across) is included: partial contacts are the from/to times. The numbers behind this page: mercury-2028-02-23.json. Generated 2026-09-11.
