Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.14; Saros -11)
|
In this extremely marginal eclipse, the Moon barely clipped the edge of the Earth's penumbral shadow. This caused a microscopic darkening of just 14% of the Moon's disc for 1 hour and 43 minutes, which was essentially impossible to see.

Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.57; Saros 4)
