This eclipse is considered partial, because the Earth's shadow will cover only part of the moon's disk, and the total duration of the eclipse will be about 4.5 hours.
The phenomenon of lunar and solar eclipses occurs once every six months, with a period of two weeks between them.
During these phenomena, the sun, the earth, and the moon line up in a single line.
If the moon is in the middle, a solar eclipse will be seen, but when the earth is in the middle, a lunar eclipse occurs.
