The moon passes west to east (right to left) across northern edge of the Earth's umbral shadow, shown in hourly intervals.

A partial lunar eclipse took place on Saturday, December 21, 1991, the last of four lunar eclipses in 1991. The moon grazed the northern edge of the umbral shadow. It occurred near perigee, and as described, such event was known as a supermoon.
