A lunar eclipse is where the Moon is in the shadow of the planet earth. The equivalent happens in Jupiter's system constantly, since the planet is so large and the sun appears only as a tiny ball of light. Jupiter's moons will orbit the planet and will be in complete shadow for long periods of time as they go behind Jupiter on every orbit.
