Penumbral lunar eclipse, Feb 20, 2027
The Moon only passes through the faint outer part of Earth's shadow. It goes a little dull and grey on one side, and many people don't notice anything at all. It can be seen from anywhere the Moon is above the horizon, and it's safe to watch with your eyes, binoculars or a telescope.
