There is a whole host of moons coming in 2020. From a wolf moon to a beaver moon, keep those eyes peeled.
This year started off with a meteor shower and the first month of 2020 continues with a penumbral lunar eclipse during the full moon, on Friday.
Lunar eclipses can only occur during a full moon. But a penumbral lunar eclipse is different from a total lunar eclipse. The eclipse on Friday will occur when the moon moves into Earth's penumbra, or outer shadow. This causes the moon to look darker than normal. During a total lunar eclipse, the change is more dramatic because the entire moon appears to be a deep red color.The eclipse will last for about four hours.
