What you’ll see.
During a partial eclipse, only part of the Moon enters Earth’s dark umbral shadow, creating a distinct curved edge across the lunar surface.
An eclipse is only observable when the Moon is above your local horizon. The exact date may differ by one day from UTC depending on your time zone.
