There are actually three identified shadow regions in an eclipse; Umbra, penumbra, and antumbra.
The umbra is the region where the light is totally obscured.
The penumbra (partially shadowed) is the region of partial eclipse - the light is diminished, but not totally.
The antumbra is that rather more distant region in the Umbra, where the light source may be perceived as a circle. A lesser known term.
