A total lunar eclipse occurred at the Moon’s ascending node of orbit on Sunday, November 9, 2003, with an umbral magnitude of 1.0197. A lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon moves into the Earth's shadow, causing the Moon to be darkened. A total lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon's near side entirely passes into the Earth's umbral shadow. Unlike a solar eclipse, which can only be viewed from a relatively small area of the world, a lunar eclipse may be viewed from anywhere on the night side of Earth. A total lunar eclipse can last up to nearly two hours, while a total solar eclipse lasts only a few minutes at any given place, because the Moon's shadow is smaller. Occurring about 1.2 days before apogee, the Moon's apparent diameter was smaller.
A penumbral lunar eclipse occurred at the Moon’s descending node of orbit on Sunday, April 24, 2005, with an umbral magnitude of −0.1417. A lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon moves into the Earth's shadow, causing the Moon to be darkened. A penumbral lunar eclipse occurs when part or all of the Moon's near side passes into the Earth's penumbra. Unlike a solar eclipse, which can only be viewed from a relatively small area of the world, a lunar eclipse may be viewed from anywhere on the night side of Earth. Occurring about 4.9 days before perigee, the Moon's apparent diameter was larger.

Occurring about 6.7 days after perigee, the Moon's apparent diameter was larger.
A penumbral lunar eclipse occurred at the Moon’s ascending node of orbit on Sunday, December 30, 2001, with an umbral magnitude of −0.1141. A lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon moves into the Earth's shadow, causing the Moon to be darkened. A penumbral lunar eclipse occurs when part or all of the Moon's near side passes into the Earth's penumbra. Unlike a solar eclipse, which can only be viewed from a relatively small area of the world, a lunar eclipse may be viewed from anywhere on the night side of Earth. Occurring about 3.7 days before perigee, the Moon's apparent diameter was larger.
A penumbral lunar eclipse took place on Sunday, January 31, 1999, the first of two lunar eclipses in 1999.
A penumbral lunar eclipse took place at the Moon's ascending node on 11 February 2017, the first of two lunar eclipses in 2017. It was not quite a total penumbral lunar eclipse. It occurred the same day as comet 45P/Honda–Mrkos–Pajdušáková made a close approach to Earth. It also occurred on the Lantern Festival, the first since 9 February 2009. Occurring only 4.4 days after perigee, the moon's apparent diameter was larger.
A penumbral lunar eclipse took place on Tuesday, April 14, 1987, the first of two lunar eclipses in 1987, the second being on October 7, 1987. This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 77.703% of the Moon's disc was partially shaded by the Earth, which caused a gentle shadow gradient across its disc at maximum; the eclipse as a whole lasted 3 hours, 54 minutes and 12.8 seconds. The Moon was just 4.6 days before perigee, making it 0.5% larger than average.
A penumbral lunar eclipse took place on Tuesday, December 20, 1983, the second of two lunar eclipses in 1983. At the maximum eclipse, 89% of the Moon's disk 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 and 2 minutes overall.
A penumbral lunar eclipse took place on Tuesday, January 20, 1981, the first of two lunar eclipses in 1981. In a rare total penumbral eclipse, the entire Moon was partially shaded by the Earth, and the shading across the Moon should have been quite visible at maximum eclipse. The penumbral phase lasted for 4 hours and 24 minutes in all, though for most of it, the eclipse was extremely difficult, if not impossible to see. The moon's apparent diameter was larger because the eclipse occurred 5.2 days after perigee.
A partial lunar eclipse occurred on 19 November 2021. The eclipse occurred towards a micromoon. This was the longest partial lunar eclipse since 18 February 1440, and the longest until 8 February, 2669; however, many eclipses, including the November 2022 lunar eclipse, have a longer period of umbral contact at next to 3 hours 40 minutes. It was often referred to as a "Beaver Blood Moon" although not technically fulfilling the criteria for a true blood moon (totality).
A penumbral lunar eclipse took place on Monday, March 25, 2024. It was visible to the naked eye as 95.57% of the Moon was immersed in Earth's penumbral shadow, making it the deepest penumbral eclipse overall since May 5, 2023, and the deepest for North and South America since February 11, 2017.
A penumbral lunar eclipse took place on Saturday, March 1, 1980, the first of three penumbral lunar eclipses in 1980. This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 65.455% of the Moon's disc was partially shaded by the Earth, which caused a gentle shadow gradient across its disc at maximum; the eclipse as a whole lasted 3 hours, 58 minutes and 33.3 seconds.
A penumbral lunar eclipse will take place on January 21, 2038. It will be visible to the naked eye as 89.96% of the Moon will be immersed in Earth's penumbral shadow. It is the first of 4 penumbral lunar eclipses in 2038, with the next eclipse on 17 June.
A penumbral lunar eclipse took place on Wednesday, April 2, 1969, the first of three penumbral lunar eclipses in 1969, the second being on Wednesday, August 27, and the last being on Thursday, September 25. This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 70.337% of the Moon's disc was partially shaded by the Earth, which caused a gentle shadow gradient across its disc at maximum; the eclipse as a whole lasted 3 hours, 43 minutes and 46.9 seconds. Occurring only 4.2 days before perigee, the Moon's apparent diameter was 0.9% larger than average.
A penumbral lunar eclipse took place on Wednesday, December 8, 1965. At maximum eclipse, 88% 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 and 1 minute overall.
A penumbral lunar eclipse took place on Wednesday, January 9, 1963, the first of three lunar eclipses in 1963.
Saros cycle series 114 for lunar eclipses occurs at the moon's ascending node, 18 years 11 and 1/3 days. It contains 71 member events, with 13 total eclipses, starting in 1458 and ending in 1674. Solar saros 121 interleaves with this lunar saros with an event occurring every 9 years 5 days alternating between each saros series.
A penumbral lunar eclipse took place on Friday, December 29, 1944. In a rare total penumbral eclipse, the entire Moon was partially shaded by the Earth, and the shading across the Moon should have been quite visible at maximum eclipse. The penumbral phase lasted for 4 hours and 27 minutes in all, though for most of it, the eclipse was extremely difficult or impossible to see. Saturn was conjunct the Moon during the eclipse.
