Penumbral Lunar Eclipse on Thu, 5 June 2031 – Path & Viewing Guide

Global Eclipse Conditions

A penumbral lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes through Earth’s outer penumbral shadow without entering the darker umbra. This type of eclipse is subtle, often going unnoticed unless a large portion of the Moon is shadowed. The eclipse begins at 01:58 (GMT-9), as the Moon enters the penumbra and gradually dims. It reaches its maximum at 02:45, with about 7% of the lunar disk in shadow. The Moon then slowly exits the penumbra, and the eclipse ends at 03:33. No portion of the Moon enters the darker umbral shadow during this event.
