A partial lunar eclipse occurred at the Moon’s ascending node of orbit on Sunday, April 12, 1903, with an umbral magnitude of 0.9677. A lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon moves into the Earth's shadow, causing the Moon to be darkened. A partial lunar eclipse occurs when one part of the Moon is in the Earth's umbra, while the other part is in the Earth's penumbra. Unlike a solar eclipse, which can only be viewed from a relatively small area of the world, a lunar eclipse may be viewed from anywhere on the night side of Earth. The Moon's apparent diameter was near the average diameter because it occurred 6.2 days after perigee (on April 5, 1903, at 18:45 UTC) and 7.1 days before apogee (on April 19, 1903, at 4:35 UTC). This nearly total lunar eclipse of Lunar Saros 130 preceded the first total eclipse of the series on April 22, 1921. It occurred on Easter Sunday (Gregorian only), for the first time since 1846.
