TL;DR Summary

Space.com notes that after August 2026’s near-100% partial lunar eclipse, Earth's outer shadow will cause a very subtle dimming of the Moon during a February 20, 2027 penumbral eclipse (the Snow Moon). The next major event, a total lunar eclipse, won’t occur until December 31, 2028, visible over Asia, Australia and the Pacific, offering a dramatic Blood Moon finale. Peak shading for the 2027 event is expected around 6:12 p.m. EST.
