A partial lunar eclipse occurs on August 28, 2026, with greatest eclipse at 04:12 UTC. The partial phase lasts 3h 19m, with 97% of the Moon's disc in the umbra at its deepest. Figures on this page are calculated by Lunologium; NASA's eclipse pages are linked as the reference.

Local circumstances are computed for a fixed list of cities with astronomy-engine, without lunar limb profiles, so durations can differ from NASA's by a few seconds. Never look at the Sun without certified eclipse glasses except during totality itself.
