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.

Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.61; Saros 118)
|
This subtle penumbral eclipse may be visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 61% 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 3 hours and 22 minutes.

|
26 Feb, 2241 AD
max: 19:37 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.18; Saros 156)
|
In this extremely marginal eclipse, the Moon barely clips the edge of the Earth's penumbral shadow. This will cause a microscopic darkening of just 18% of the Moon's disc for 1 hour and 53 minutes, which will be essentially impossible to see.
