A penumbral lunar eclipse will take place on August 29, 2053.
This eclipse is a relatively rare total penumbral lunar eclipse wherein the entire moon passes through the Earth's penumbra without any portion entering the umbra.[1] This eclipse will be the first total penumbral lunar eclipse since the March 2006 lunar eclipse.
This lunar eclipse will be followed by the solar eclipse of September 12, 2053.
