penumbra
penumbra
The light around the moon is called the corona. It is the outermost portion of the sun's atmosphere. The corona is always present, but except during an eclipse it is hidden by the glare from the rest of the sun.
The corona, which is the sun's plasma 'atmosphere'.
During a total solar eclipse, the shadow is called the umbra. It is the darkest part of the shadow where the moon completely blocks the sun. The umbra creates the area on the Earth where a total eclipse can be seen.
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.

The darkest portion of the Moon's shadow during an eclipse is called the umbra.
It is called the Umbra, the 'lighter' part of the shadow is the Pen-umbra

No, the umbra is the central, darkest part of a shadow where the light source is completely blocked. In the case of an eclipse, the umbra refers to the region of total darkness where the light source is completely obscured, such as during a total solar eclipse.
The narrow central region of the eclipse shadow, where the Sun's disc is totally obscured, is called the umbra. Areas that only observe a partial or incomplete eclipse are in the penumbra. Another term sometimes used for annular eclipses, where there is no umbra, is the antumbra, where only a small ring of light remains around the Moon.
The dark shadow cast by the Earth on the Moon during a lunar eclipse is called the umbra. This is the central and darkest part of the shadow where the light from the Sun is completely blocked.
"Umbra" means "shadow"; specifically the darkest part of the shadow of a planet or moon during an eclipse.
The shadow cast by the moon on Earth during a solar eclipse is called the umbra. This is the central, darkest part of the shadow. Surrounding the umbra is a lighter shadow called the penumbra, where only a partial eclipse is visible.
The moon's umbra is the darkest part of its shadow during a lunar or solar eclipse. It is the region where the light from the Sun is completely blocked by the Moon, resulting in total darkness for observers within this area. During a solar eclipse, those located in the umbra experience a total eclipse, while those outside it may see a partial eclipse. The umbra is contrasted with the penumbra, where only a portion of the Sun's light is obscured.
When you are in the moon's shadow during a solar eclipse, it is called the umbra. This is the central, darkest part of the shadow where the sun is completely blocked by the moon. Outside of the umbra is the penumbra, where the sun is only partially blocked, resulting in a partial eclipse.
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.
