Lunar eclipse 2020 will occur today, and its the penumbral type. Lunar eclipses  (called chandra grahan in Hindi) are much more common than solar eclipses, but are still a sight to behold. There are three types of lunar eclipses - total, partial, and penumbral. Total lunar eclipses are the most dramatic, while penumbral lunar eclipses are the most common. 

Where to watch the penumbral lunar eclipse on January 10, 2020?
As mentioned, the eclipse will be visible in India, and countries across Asia, Africa, and Europe will be able to see the lunar eclipse as well. Unfortunately, the penumbral lunar eclipse won't be visible in the US, as it will be daylight in that part of the region.
