EN Texto em inglês Ainda não há artigo no teu idioma: trecho em inglês.

A penumbral lunar eclipse will occur at the Moon’s ascending node of orbit on Tuesday, August 17, 2027, with an umbral magnitude of −0.5234. 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 1.9 days after apogee (on August 15, 2027, at 10:20 UTC), the Moon's apparent diameter will be smaller. The eclipse will be completely visible over North and South America, seen rising over Australia and the central Pacific Ocean and setting over west Africa. Shown below is a table displaying details about this particular eclipse. It describes various parameters pertaining to this eclipse. This eclipse is part of an eclipse season, a period, roughly every six months, when eclipses occur. Only two (or occasionally three) eclipse seasons occur each year, and each season lasts about 35 days and repeats just short of six months (173 days) later; thus two full eclipse seasons always occur each year.
