'Strawberry Moon' Lunar eclipse night - what is it and how did it actually get its name?

People are bracing for next Lunar eclipse of 2020, as a full 'Strawberry Moon' is set to be visible on June 5 with an understated partial eclipse for certain or parts of world. A penumbral eclipse is far more subtle than a total eclipse. In a penumbral eclipse, Earth and Sun are imperfectly aligned where Moon slips through Earth's faint outer (penumbral) show, which creates a dark shing on  Face of moon. 

Moon is shed by Earth's show very subtly, which actually makes it a bit difficult to tice. However, one will still be able to bask in light of a lovely 'Strawberry Moon' when it finally comes out. At  time of Strawberry Moon eclipse, it is expected that 57 percent of Moon will pass into Earth’s penumbra.
