Full Moon Calendar 2005
In 2005, there were 12 full moons. No blue moon occurred during the year, but there was a seasonable blue moon And there was a partial lunar eclipse and a penumbral lunar eclipse during the full moons that year.
The penumbral lunar eclipse occurred during the April full moon on April 24th at 05:55. A penumbral lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon moves through the outer part of Earth’s shadow. This type of lunar eclipse can be mistaken for the regular full moon, which in this case wasn’t an issue because it occurred during an actual full moon.
