The umbra, penumbra and antumbra are the names given to three distinct parts of a shadow, created by any light source. For a point source only the umbra is cast.

These names are usually used when referring to the shadows cast by celestial bodies.

The umbra (Latin for "shadow") is the darkest part of the shadow. From within the umbra, the light source is completely occluded. In astronomy, an observer in the umbra is said to be in the shadows experiencing total eclipse.

Eclipse

the total or partial disappearance of one astronomical body by passing into the shadow of another. A solar eclipse occurs when the new moon passes between the earth and the sun. A lunar eclipse occurs when the moon moves into the shadow of the earth, i.e., the earth is situated between the sun and the moon.
