‌‌Penumbral Eclipse of the Moon on June 5, 2020

A shortened, silent version can be found here.

A minor eclipse (penumbral) will be occurring on June 5th for the eastern hemisphere. Earth will partially block the Sun causing the Moon to slightly darken. The animation will explain it better. The southern part of the Moon will be shaded. Only half the Moon (0.5683) will immerse into the penumbral shade. The states will see a penumbral eclipse on July 5th.
