Strawberry moon June 2020 and penumbral lunar eclipse
A penumbral lunar eclipse is generally subtler than a total lunar eclipse. A lunar eclipse happens when the Earth obstructs the sun's light on the moon. During the Lunar eclipse, the earth is moving between the sun and moon which obstructs the sunlight reflected by the moon. The Lunar eclipse that will be observed today on June 5, 2020, is a penumbral lunar eclipse.
It is the weakest of all Lunar eclipses. It is difficult to distinguish a full moon and a penumbral lunar eclipse as it only slightly darkens the moon. The next penumbral lunar eclipses of 2020 will take place on July 5 and November 30.
