A penumbral lunar eclipse took place on Sunday 30 December 2001, the last of three lunar eclipses in 2001. At maximum eclipse, 89.477% of the Moon's disc was partially shaded by the Earth, which caused a slight shadow gradient across its disc; this subtle effect may have been visible to careful observers. No part of the Moon was in complete shadow. The eclipse lasted 4 hours, 4 minutes and 17.7 seconds overall. This lunar eclipse followed the Annular Solar Eclipse on 14 December 2001.

A partial lunar eclipse took place on Thursday 5 July 2001, the second of three lunar eclipses in 2001. The Earth's shadow on the moon was clearly visible in this eclipse, with 49.614% of the Moon in shadow; the partial eclipse lasted for 2 hours, 40 minutes and 0.5 seconds. Occurring only 3.9 days before apogee, the Moon’s apparent diameter was 5.021% smaller than average.

A partial lunar eclipse took place on 25 April 2013, the first of three lunar eclipses in 2013. Only a tiny sliver (1.48%) of the Moon was covered by the Earth's umbral shadow at maximum eclipse, but the entire northern half of the Moon was darkened from being inside the penumbral shadow. This was one of the shortest partial eclipses of the Moon for the 21st century, lasting 27 minutes. This was the last of 58 umbral lunar eclipses of Lunar Saros 112.

A total lunar eclipse will take place on August 7, 2036. The southern tip of the Moon will pass through the center of the Earth's shadow. This is the last central lunar eclipse of Saros cycle 129.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">July 2083 lunar eclipse</span> Central lunar eclipse

A total lunar eclipse will take place on July 29, 2083. The Moon will be plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 30 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which will see the Moon 48.3% of its diameter inside the Earth's umbral shadow. The visual effect of this depends on the state of the Earth's atmosphere, but the Moon may be stained a deep red colour. The partial eclipse will last for 3 hours and 33 minutes in total.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">June 2076 lunar eclipse</span> Central lunar eclipse

A total lunar eclipse will take place on June 17, 2076. The moon will pass through the center of the Earth's shadow. While the visual effect of a total eclipse is variable, the Moon may be stained a deep orange or red color at maximum eclipse. With a gamma value of only −0.0452 and an umbral eclipse magnitude of 1.7943, this is the second greatest eclipse in Saros series 131 as well as the largest and darkest lunar eclipse between June 26, 2029 and June 28, 2094. Overall, it will be the third largest and darkest lunar eclipse of the 21st century. While it will have similar values to the lunar eclipse of July 16, 2000, totality will not last over 106 minutes due to the moon's relatively large apparent size as seen from Earth and greater speed in its elliptical orbit. Totality's expected to last 100 minutes 34 seconds from 9:11:39 to 10:52:15 with the greatest point at 10:01:57 UTC.
