You can't really see an umbra because it is named from the lunar eclipse. It does something special so type up the question to figure out. [At 6/26/2010 at 2:30 AM in the morning there was a lunar eclipse].

How does the penumbra differ from an umbra?
an umbra is the center of the solar eclipse which is the darker part and the penumbra is farther away from the center of the eclipse and is brighter than the umbra
What are the 2 shadows produced during eclipse?
They are the penumbra (think of a large circle) and the umbra (think of a small, darker circle in the center of the large circle). People who have the penumbra only pass over them see a partial eclipse. People who have the umbra pass over them see a total eclipse.
If the moon is relatively far from the earth so that its umbra does not reach earth someone directly behind the umbra will see what?
They would see an annular (ring shaped) eclipse of the sun. The Sun's photosphere (the really bright part) is visible all the way around the moon.(these do happen on the surface of the Earth)
Do people in the umbra see only partial solar eclipses?
NO they don't. First the Solar Eclipse is on the other side of Umbra. They don't git to see much of it.Because it is usually to dark to see the moon in Umbra.

If you can see a lunar eclipse are you standing in the Moon's umbra or penumbra?
If a lunar eclipse is in progress, the moon is in the earth's shadow. If any part of the moon becomes almost as dark as the space around it, then that part of the moon is in the umbra of the shadow. If you can see the lunar eclipse, then you are on the night side of the earth. I guess that means you're also in the umbra of the shadow, because you can't see the sun at all.
If the moon's umbra fails to reach Earth?
There are times that the umbra of the moon fails to reach the Earth. This is when the moon is at apogee. When this happens, observers witness an annular, or ring, eclipse. During anannular eclipse, observers in the umbra see a thin, bright ring around the moon.
A total solar eclipse can only be seen by people in the area of Earth within the Moon's umbra?
Short answer: True. Long answer: not entirely true as follows: The eclipse event as a whole is visible to anyone within either the umbra or the penumbra, however it appears as truly total only to those within the umbra. That is, those who are not in the umbra are seeing an event that will be called a "total eclipse", just not optimally, as it will appear only partial to them.
What is Nocera Umbra's population?
