twice a year
Every 360 years.
A solar eclipse may be partial, total, or annular.
It's the other way around; more people can see a total lunar eclipse than a total solar eclipse. The reason is that a lunar eclipse happens on the Moon; it is visible from half of the Earth's surface. A solar eclipse occurs along a narrow track across the Earth, and 75% of the Earth's surface is oceans.
In 2011, there will be a partial eclipse of the sun on June 1st, visible only in Alaska and northern Canada. There will be a total lunar eclipse on June 15th, but it will not be visible in North America at all.
solar eclipse maybe?
A total solar eclipse only occurs when there is a new moon.
This is a solar eclipse, specifically a total eclipse (Total solar eclipse I think is how you would word it).
A Partial Solar Eclipse will happen most often because it is more likely for part of the sun to be covered up by the moon than the whole moon covering the entire sun. Also you don't really hear about Total Eclipses do you ? Hope I Helped -David
During a total solar eclipse, at one point it will be almost completely dark.
A total solar eclipse
the next total solar eclipse is on the 22nd of July.
a total lunar eclipse can be seen anywhere on earth where the moon is visible so you are more likely to see a total lunar eclipse than a total solar eclipse
