August 2053 Lunar Eclipse
A penumbral lunar eclipse will occur at the Moon’s descending node of orbit on Friday, August 29, 2053, with an umbral magnitude of −0.0319. It will be a relatively rare total penumbral lunar eclipse, with the Moon passing entirely within the penumbral shadow without entering the darker umbral shadow. A lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon moves into the Earth's shadow, causing the Moon to be darkened. A penumbral lunar eclipse occurs when part or all of the Moon's near side passes into the Earth's penumbra. Unlike a solar eclipse, which can only be viewed from a relatively small area of the world, a lunar eclipse may be viewed from anywhere on the night side of Earth. Occurring about 4.7 days after apogee (on August 24, 2053, at 14:30 UTC), the Moon's apparent diameter will be smaller. Visibility The eclipse will be completely visible over much of North America and western South America, seen rising over northeast Asia and Australia and setting over eastern South America and ...

Lunar Eclipse
A lunar eclipse is an astronomical event that occurs when the Moon moves into the Earth's shadow, causing the Moon to be darkened. Such an alignment occurs during an eclipse season, approximately every six months, during the full moon phase, when the Moon's orbital plane is closest to Ecliptic, the plane of the Earth's orbit. This can occur only when the Sun, Earth, and Moon are exactly or very closely aligned (in syzygy (astronomy), syzygy) with Earth between the other two, which can happen only on the night of a full moon when the Moon is near either lunar node. The type and length of a lunar eclipse depend on the Moon's proximity to the lunar node. When the Moon is totally eclipsed by the Earth (a "deep eclipse"), "What is a deep eclipse? The smaller star is behind the bigger star" it takes on a reddish color that is caused by the planet when it completely blocks direct sunlight from reaching the Moon's surface, as the only light that is diffuse reflection, reflected from ...

Solar Eclipse Of September 12, 2053
A total solar eclipse will take place at the Moon's ascending node of orbit on Friday, September 12, 2053, with a magnitude of 1.0328. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun, thereby totally or partly obscuring the image of the Sun for a viewer on Earth. A total solar eclipse occurs when the Moon's apparent diameter is larger than the Sun's, blocking all direct sunlight, turning day into darkness. Totality occurs in a narrow path across Earth's surface, with the partial solar eclipse visible over a surrounding region thousands of kilometres wide. Occurring about 2.7 days after perigee (on September 9, 2053, at 16:30 UTC), the Moon's apparent diameter will be larger. The path of totality will be visible from parts of the southern tip of Spain, the northern tip of Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, the Maldives, and western Indonesia. A partial solar eclipse will also be visible for parts of north and central Africa, Europe, ...

September 2042 Lunar Eclipse
A penumbral lunar eclipse will occur at the Moon’s ascending node of orbit on Monday, September 29, 2042, with an umbral magnitude of −0.0011. A lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon moves into the Earth's shadow, causing the Moon to be darkened. A penumbral lunar eclipse occurs when part or all of the Moon's near side passes into the Earth's penumbra. Unlike a solar eclipse, which can only be viewed from a relatively small area of the world, a lunar eclipse may be viewed from anywhere on the night side of Earth. Occurring only about 9 hours before perigee (on September 29, 2042, at 19:45 UTC), the Moon's apparent diameter will be larger. Earlier sources compute this as a 0.3% partial eclipse lasting under 12 minutes, but newer calculations list it as a penumbral eclipse that never enters the umbral shadow. Visibility The eclipse will be completely visible over eastern Australia, northeast Asia, and western North America, seen rising over east Asia and western Australia and se ...

October 2060 Lunar Eclipse
October is the tenth month of the year in the Julian and Gregorian calendars. Its length is 31 days. The eighth month in the old calendar of Romulus , October retained its name (from Latin and Greek ''ôctō'' meaning "eight") after January and February were inserted into the calendar that had originally been created by the Romans. In Ancient Rome, one of three Mundus patet would take place on October 5, Meditrinalia October 11, Augustalia on October 12, October Horse on October 15, and Armilustrium on October 19. These dates do not correspond to the modern Gregorian calendar. Among the Anglo-Saxons, it was known as Winterfylleth (Ƿinterfylleþ), because at this full moon, winter was supposed to begin. October is commonly associated with the season of autumn in parts of the Northern Hemisphere, and spring in parts of the Southern Hemisphere, where it is the seasonal equivalent to April in the Northern Hemisphere and vice versa. Symbols October's birthstones are th ...

June 2057 Lunar Eclipse
During the 21st century, there will be 228 lunar eclipses of which 86 will be Lunar eclipse#Types of lunar eclipse, penumbral, 57 will be partial and 85 will be total. Of the total eclipses, 24 will be central, in the sense that the Moon will pass through the very center (axis) of the Earth's shadow (for more information see Gamma (eclipse), gamma). In the 21st century, the greatest number of eclipses in one year is four, in 2009, 2020, 2038, 2056, 2085, and 2096. The predictions given here are by Fred Espenak of NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center. The longest measured duration in which the Earth completely covered the Moon, known as Lunar eclipse#Total lunar eclipse, totality, was during the July 2018 lunar eclipse, lunar eclipse of July 27, 2018. This total lunar eclipse had a maximum duration of 1 hour, 42 minutes, and 57 seconds. The longest possible duration of a total lunar eclipse is 1 hour and 47 minutes. The table contains the date and time of the greatest eclipse (in d ...

Solar Eclipse Of March 20, 2053
An annular solar eclipse will occur at the Moon's descending node of orbit on Thursday, March 20, 2053, with a magnitude of 0.9919. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun, thereby totally or partly obscuring the image of the Sun for a viewer on Earth. An annular solar eclipse occurs when the Moon's apparent diameter is smaller than the Sun's, blocking most of the Sun's light and causing the Sun to look like an annulus (ring). An annular eclipse appears as a partial eclipse over a region of the Earth thousands of kilometres wide. Occurring about 5.6 days before perigee (on March 25, 2053, at 21:15 UTC), the Moon's apparent diameter will be larger. The path of annularity will be visible from parts of southern Indonesia. A partial solar eclipse will also be visible for parts of Southern Africa, Southeast Asia, Australia, and Antarctica. Eclipse details Shown below are two tables displaying details about this particular solar eclipse. The first table ...

Total Eclipse
An eclipse is an astronomical event which occurs when an astronomical object or spacecraft is temporarily obscured, by passing into the shadow of another body or by having another body pass between it and the viewer. This alignment of three celestial objects is known as a ''syzygy''. An eclipse is the result of either an '' occultation'' (completely hidden) or a ''transit'' (partially hidden). A "deep eclipse" (or "deep occultation") is when a small astronomical object is behind a bigger one. "What is a deep eclipse? The smaller star is behind the bigger star" The term ''eclipse'' is most often used to describe either a solar eclipse, when the Moon's shadow crosses the Earth's surface, or a lunar eclipse, when the Moon moves into the Earth's shadow. However, it can also refer to such events beyond the Earth–Moon system: for example, a planet moving into the shadow cast by one of its moons, a moon passing into the shadow cast by its host planet, or a moon passing into the ...
