According to an observer, Avivah Yamani, in 2023 and 2024 there will only be Penumbral Lunar Eclipses and Partial Lunar Eclipses.

"The Total Lunar Eclipse of November 8, 2022, begins before the Moon rises throughout Indonesia. If so, when it rises, the Moon has already experienced an eclipse, and areas of Indonesia that are divided into three time zones will see the eclipse at different phases of the eclipse," Avivah Yamani remarked on the Langit Selatan website.

A lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth blocks the Sun's light from reaching the Moon. As a result, no light is received to be reflected by the Moon. The Moon revolves around the Earth, so there are times when the Earth is between the Moon and the Sun.

In this configuration, the Moon is in its Full phase. This happens regularly every month. However, not every full moon is an eclipse because the Earth is not always aligned with the Moon and Sun, so the Sun's light is blocked from reaching the Moon.

This is because the orbit or trajectory of the Moon around the Earth has a tilt of five degrees so that during the Full phase, the Sun, Earth, and Moon are not always aligned or parallel. If the Sun, Earth, and Moon are aligned, then the Moon will enter the umbra or shadow of the Earth's core and an eclipse occurs.

This phenomenon can be witnessed by people living in Northern Europe, Eastern Europe, Asia, Australia, North America, most of South America, the Pacific, Atlantic, Indian Ocean, the Arctic, the Antarctic, and all parts of Indonesia.

"Observers in eastern Indonesia are more fortunate because the Moon rises when just entering the penumbral eclipse. Thus, observers in eastern Indonesia can observe almost all phases of the eclipse," she explained.
