Strawberry moon June 2020 and penumbral lunar eclipse

There are a total of three types of lunar eclipses, total, partial and penumbral. The Lunar eclipse that will be observed today on June 5, 2020, is a penumbral lunar eclipse which is the weakest in three. It is difficult to distinguish between a full moon and a penumbral lunar eclipse for the naked eye as it only slightly darkens the moon.

A lunar eclipse takes place when the Earth obstructs the sun's light by coming between the sun and the moon thus obstructing the sun's light. The next penumbral lunar eclipse of 2020 will take place around July 5, 2020, and then around November 30, 2020.
