What you’ll see.
During a penumbral eclipse, the Moon passes through Earth’s faint outer shadow. The change is subtle and sometimes difficult to see without photographs.
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.
