There are actually two types of shade or umbrella, namely one part shade that is blocked from all sunlight. Ambra is a dark, slender cone with a penumbra around it, a bright funnel-shaped shadow, through which sunlight is blocked.
As announced Compass.com, Monday (14/12/2020), Total solar eclipse incident The earth moves in an elliptical orbit around the sun, and the moon moves in an elliptical orbit around the earth depending on the distance between the three objects, thus changing the distance between the celestial objects.

When this solar eclipse occurs, the brightness or light level during the day is greatly reduced, creating a gloomy atmosphere, just like at night.
Two types of lunar shadows are formed during this eclipse, namely Antumbra and Penumbra.
In the region passing through Antumbra, the observed solar eclipse will be a circular solar eclipse.
Meanwhile, in the penumbra receiving area, some of the eclipse phenomena observed are in the form of a solar eclipse.
