The moon does not shine of itself. What we see is when the sun is shining on the moon and it is illuminated. So the moon is reflecting light towards us.

The other planets that we see that appear to shine, are also just being lit up by the sun.
What time will penumbra lunar eclipse be visible?
It will NOT be visible to the naked eye. A tiny fraction of the light from the Sun will be cut off from shining on a tiny fraction of the full Moon - but the Sun's light is so intense that you, watching from the Earth, will be unable to see the difference.If you were in Singapore for the solar eclipse last week, you saw about a 5% eclipse; 95% of the light of the Sun shined down brightly on you, and 5% of the Sun was blocked. Without special equipment, could you have watched the eclipse?No. And you won't be able to see this one, either; not without special instruments that would measure exactly how brightly the full Moon is shining before, during and after the eclipse.This eclipse is as near as an eclipse can get to missing completely.
Why do you have full moons?
The sun is always shining at the moon. However, sometimes we can only see part of the moon that the sun is shining on. When the sun is behind us and the moon in front of us, we can see all of the part of the moon that the sun is shining on. If the sun is behind us and the moon is to the left or right of us, we can see part of the moon that the sun is shining on and part that it isn't shining on. However, because that part of the moon is so dark, we cant really see it all, so we see a half moon. As the moon orbits the Earth wee see more or less part of it lit up. The moon then seems to disappear altogether, which is because we can't see any part of the moon being lit up. The moon is getting fuller at present, so each night we see a bit more of it lit up. After it is full we will begin to see less of it being lit up.
