Yes.
Not precisely. The umbra is the TOTAL part of the shadow. In a total eclipse, where the eclipsing object is spherical, then the "inner" part of the shadow is the umbra, but in a partial eclipse, there IS NO umbra; just the "penumbra", the partial shadow.
The dark inner shadow where total eclipses can be seen on Earth is called the umbra. This is the central region of the Moon's shadow during a total solar eclipse, where the Sun is completely blocked out. Observers within the umbra experience the full effect of the eclipse, with the sky darkening and the Sun's corona becoming visible.
There are two parts of a shadow: the UMBRA and the PENUMBRA. UMBRA is the inner darker part of a shadow. PENUBMRA is the outher lighter layer of a shadow. During a solar eclipse, the area on the planet that witnesses a complete total solar eclipse would be under the moon's shadow's UMBRA. The area that views a partial solar eclipse would be under the PENUMBRAL shadow.
the darkest part of the moon's shadow is called the umbra
I think you are asking what is the lighter part of the Earth's shadow on the Moon that surrounds the darkest part. The penumbra is this lighter part of the shadow. The darkest part is the umbra.
It is called the Umbra, the 'lighter' part of the shadow is the Pen-umbra
The umbra in a shadow is the portion where light from a source is completely blocked. This is in the middle of the shadow. The area around this, where light from part, but not all of the source shines is called the penumbra. In the shadow cast by the moon in an eclipse, the penumbra is the partial shadow that occurs before the total eclipse, and the umbra is the 'total eclipse' portion
"Umbra" is Latin for "shadow". "Penumbra" can be translated as "almost shadow".
umbra is the shadow and penumbra is the part the umbra is in
The darkest part of a shadows is called the "umbra", which is actually Latin for "shadow". This is where the light source is completely blocked by the occluding body. The person viewing the umbra experiences a total eclipse.
That part of the shadow is called the penumbra.
