Why and when do the lunar and solar eclipses occur?

Lunar eclipses occur when the Earth passes between the Sun and the Moon, causing the Earth's shadow to fall on the Moon. Solar eclipses happen when the Moon passes between the Sun and the Earth, blocking the Sun's light from reaching Earth. Lunar eclipses can only happen during a full moon, while solar eclipses can only occur during a new moon.
