A total lunar eclipse will take place on July 7, 2047. It will last 1 hour 40 minutes and 49 seconds and will plunge the full Moon into deep darkness, as it passes right through the centre of the Earth's umbral shadow. While the visual effect of a total eclipse is variable, the Moon may be stained a deep orange or red colour at maximum eclipse. This will be a great spectacle for everyone who sees it. The partial eclipse will last for 3 hours and 39 minutes in total.

A penumbral lunar eclipse took place at the Moon's descending node of the orbit on Tuesday, August 26, 1980, the last of three penumbral lunar eclipses in 1980 with a penumbral magnitude of 0.70891. This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 70.891% 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, 34 minutes and 26 seconds.
