May 5th Penumbral Lunar Eclipse, Not Visible in U.S. – Today

There is a small treat for persons on the other side of the globe, a penumbral lunar eclipse. A penumbral lunar eclipse is barely visible, as the moon loses brightness and intensity, especially on one corner of the Moon. Between the phase of the intense solar eclipse and this lunar eclipse, the Moon is just near one hundred miles away from making it into the umbral area, so no partiality will be experienced today. The umbral magnitude of this eclipse is going to be -0.046, which means the Moon just misses the darker, inner part of Earth’s circular shadow, called the umbra. But a rare one, the penumbral eclipse is going down as the deepest penumbral eclipse until September 2042. Unfortunately it will not be visible anywhere in the United States, because it is too close to Hawaii’s twilight. It is focused mostly in the eastern Hemisphere

UPDATE 09/20/2024: The original @TheRealPAX video was removed by the YouTube owner. It is important to note that, despite your urge to streamline, by removing a video, anyone who assists in promoting via embedding will not work. Therefore I reshared another video from another source.
