A total lunar eclipse took place on 10 December 2011. It was the second of two total lunar eclipses in 2011, the first having occurred on June 15. A lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon is positioned just right in its orbit to pass through Earth's shadow.
A penumbral lunar eclipse took place on 14 March 2006, the first of two lunar eclipses in 2006.
A penumbral lunar eclipse took place on 6 August 2009, the third of four lunar eclipses in 2009. The moon's small entry into the Earth's penumbral shadow produced an extremely subtle dimming of the moon's southern edge, difficult to observe visually.
A partial lunar eclipse was visible on 31 December 2009. It was the last and largest of four minor lunar eclipses in 2009. This lunar eclipse was also notable, because it occurred during a blue moon and was near perigee. The next eclipse on New Year's Eve and blue moon will occur on 31 December 2028.
A total lunar eclipse took place at 0308 UT (GMT) on Thursday, August 17, 1989, the second of two total lunar eclipses in 1989.
A partial lunar eclipse took place on 4 June 2012. It was the first of two lunar eclipses occurring in 2012, the second eclipse set to happen on 28 November. The moon was about 37% covered by the Earth's northern umbral shadow at maximum eclipse.
A penumbral lunar eclipse occurred on 28 November 2012, the second of two lunar eclipses in 2012.
A penumbral lunar eclipse took place on 24–25 May 2013, the second of three lunar eclipses in 2013. It was visually imperceptible due to the small entry into the penumbral shadow.
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 penumbral lunar eclipse took place on 18–19 October 2013, the last of three lunar eclipses in 2013.
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 on 23 March 2016, the first of three lunar eclipses in 2016. The Moon was just 2.1 days before apogee, making it very small, so this was a "Micromoon" penumbral lunar eclipse.
A penumbral lunar eclipse took place on 16 September 2016, the last of three lunar eclipses in 2016.
A total lunar eclipse will take place on May 26, 2040. The northern limb of the moon will pass through the center of the Earth's shadow. This is the second central lunar eclipse of Saros series 131.
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 on Thursday, June 27, 1991, the second of four lunar eclipses in 1991. The moon entered the Earth's penumbra for about 3 hours, and was difficult to see. This lunar eclipse is the predecessor of the Solar eclipse of July 11, 1991.
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 or impossible to see. The moon's apparent diameter was larger because the eclipse occurred 5.2 days after perigee.
A penumbral lunar eclipse will take place on 18 July 2027. The Moon will barely clip the edge of the Earth's penumbral shadow, and the eclipse will be impossible to see in practice. The event is listed as a miss by some sources.
A total lunar eclipse took place on Saturday, April 13, 1968, the first of two total eclipses in 1968, the second being on October 6, 1968.
A total lunar eclipse took place on Monday, September 15, 1913. The moon passed through the center of the Earth's shadow.
