The following chart shows the position where the Moon
is directly overhead at the maximum times of the
total (in blue) and
partial (in red) lunar eclipses (penumbral eclipses are
omitted). Each eclipse will be visible approximately
from the half of the Earth centred on that point. Use the
zoom controls on the left to zoom in and out; hover over
a marker to see the area of visibility and summary
information on that eclipse.

Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.06; Saros 141)
|
A tiny bite out of the Moon may be visible at maximum, though just 6% of the Moon will be shadowed in a partial eclipse lasting for 58 minutes and 30 seconds. A shading across the moon from the Earth's penumbral shadow should be visible at maximum eclipse.
|
|
8 Nov, 2041 AD
max: 04:33 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.17; Saros 146)
|

5 Apr, 2042 AD
max: 14:28 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.87; Saros 113)
|
This subtle penumbral eclipse may be visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 87% of the Moon's disc will be partially shaded by the Earth (none of it will be in total shadow), which will cause a gentle shadow gradient across its disc at maximum; the eclipse as a whole will last 4 hours and 28 minutes.

29 Sep, 2042 AD
max: 10:44 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.95; Saros 118)
