Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.97; Saros 27)
The Moon approached within 3% of the Earth's umbral shadow at maximum eclipse; 97% of the Moon's disc was partially shaded by the Earth, with the overall eclipse lasting 4 hours and 17 minutes. While less dramatic than a partial eclipse (as no part of the Moon was in complete shadow), a shading across the Moon should have been readily visible to observers.

Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.84; Saros 27)
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 84% of the Moon's disc was partially shaded by the Earth (none of it was in total shadow), which caused a gentle shadow gradient across its disc at maximum; the eclipse as a whole lasted 4 hours and 3 minutes.

max: 03:13 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.19; Saros 27)
In this extremely marginal eclipse, the Moon barely clipped the edge of the Earth's penumbral shadow. This caused a microscopic darkening of just 19% of the Moon's disc for 2 hours and 9 minutes, which was essentially impossible to see.
