MOMSMONEY.ID – Today, Monday, March 25 2024, there will be a Penumbral Lunar Eclipse. The following is the location and time of the Penumbral Lunar Eclipse March 25, 2024.

Quoting the BMKG page, a lunar eclipse is an event where the Sun’s light is blocked by the Earth so that not all of it reaches the Moon.

This event, which is one of the consequences of the dynamic movement of the positions of the Sun, Earth and Moon, only occurs during the full moon phase and can be predicted in advance.

A penumbral lunar eclipse occurs when the positions of the Sun, Earth and Moon are aligned. This makes the Moon only enter the Earth’s penumbral shadow.

As a result, when the peak of the eclipse occurs, the Moon will appear dimmer than when it is full.
