When is the next lunar eclipse?
There are three broad definitions for lunar eclipses.
During a total lunar eclipse, when the Moon passes through the innermost portion of the Earth’s shadow, it takes on an eerie crimson colour.
A partial lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes through even a small part of Earth’s inner shadow, dubbed the umbra.
A penumbral lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes through the penumbra, the outermost section of Earth’s shadow.
All four eclipses in 2020 are penumbral eclipses, and the moon will be cloaked in a sinister silvery hue.
