And eclipse may be partial or total, or penumbral or umbral. In a total (umbral) eclipse, the umbra of an object's shadow falls upon another object. Umbral solar eclipses are significantly rarer than any other type of eclipse. In a penumbral eclipse, an object's partial shadow, or penumbra, falls upon the other object.

The three main parts of a total solar eclipse are the umbra (the darkest part of the shadow), the penumbra (the lighter part surrounding the umbra), and the corona (the outer atmosphere of the sun visible during totality).

There is the penumbra and the umbra. If you see a umbra of an eclipse you see a total eclipse. The penumbra is a partial eclipse. But it is a lot cooler being in the umbra! =D

Why is total solar eclipse not seen from all parts of the globe?

A solar eclipse happens when the Moon covers the Sun. The Moon is only about 1/4 the size of the Earth, and that is the reason the eclipse can't be seen (not even as a partial eclipse) from all parts of the Earth at once.A solar eclipse happens when the Moon covers the Sun.
