The umbra, penumbra and antumbra are the names given to three distinct parts of a shadow, created by any light source. For a point source only the umbra is cast.
PenumbraThe penumbra (from the Latin paene "almost, nearly" andumbra "shadow") is the region in which only a portion of the light source is obscured by the occluding body. An observer in the penumbra experiences a partial eclipse. AntumbraThe antumbra is the region from which the occluding body appears entirely contained within the disc of the light source. If an observer in the antumbra moves closer to the light source, the apparent size of the occluding body increases until it causes a full umbra. An observer in this region experiences an annular eclipse.The umbra is the darker total shadow; the penumbra is the surrounding partial shadow.
In the penumbra, you would experience a partial eclipse of the Sun or Moon. The sunlight or moonlight would be partially blocked, resulting in a dimming effect but not complete darkness like in the umbra. It's still safe to observe the eclipse in the penumbra without eye protection.
During the eclipse, the penumbra is the outer part of the shadow where only partial sunlight is blocked.
Shadows have two parts, the umbra and the penumbra. The umbra is the darker part of the shadow, in which all of the light from the source is blocked by the object casting the shadow. The penumbra, also known as the half-shadow, is the grayish part along the edge of a shadow in which only some of the light from the source is blocked.During a solar eclipse, if you are within the umbra of the moon's shadow, you are witnessing a total eclipse, and if you are within the penumbra of the moon's shadow, you are witnessing a partial eclipse.
You will see a partial eclipse if you are in the penumbra.
