The next total solar eclipse will occur on July 22, 2009, about five months from now.
The path of totality, where you would be able to see the eclipse, will track from
northern India across China and across the Pacific Ocean. It will only be visible in
Asia and at sea.
The next total eclipse visible in North America will be on August 22, 2017.
Please see the map below.

∙ 15y agoThere are generally two lunar eclipses each year. 2009 is a bad year for eclipses, because of the precise geometry of the Sun-Earth-Moon system; instead of getting two umbral eclipses, we're getting four "penumbral" eclipses.
In a "penumbral" eclipse, the Moon goes through only the edges of the Earth's shadow. And because the Sun is so big and so bright, we can't actually see the difference between "the Moon in full sunlight" and "the Moon partially shaded by the Earth". So a penumbral eclipse has to be greater than about 60% shading before anybody can notice the eclipse!
The next "good" total eclipse will be in December, 2010.

∙ 9y agoThere will be a partial eclipse Sept 13 2015.
There are at least two, and at most five, solar eclipses every year, usually partial.

In how many years does a full lunar eclipse appear?
There are generally two solar eclipses and two lunar eclipses each year. Of the lunar eclipses, about 40% are "total"; the remainder are partial or penumbral. A lunar eclipse is visible from one-half of the Earth's surface. So on average, and weather permitting, you will see a total lunar eclipse about every third year.
When is the next lunar eclipse set to occur?
The "next" one of anything is a continually moving target. Any set answer will be out of date when the "next" event occurs. For the date and parameters of the "next" eclipse, check the NASA Eclipse page (at the link below) to see the particular details for any eclipse between the years 2000 BCE to 3000 AD._________________________________________________________ AnswerThe next total lunar eclipse is December 21, 2010, and will be visible from anywhere in North America.According to Astronomy Essentials and Earth Sky, the next lunar eclipse should arrive on April 25th, 2013. It's only a partial eclipse, and it will only last 27 minutes.
How many times does the lunar eclipse come?
Once every 33 months
How many years is it between a lunar eclipse?
In the 100 years from 1901 to 2000, there were 228 solar eclipses and 229 lunar ones.So over a long period of time, that's an average of roughly 2.3 of each kind every year.There are typically 2 or 3 of each kind every year. But some years have only one, andoccasionally there can be a year with as many as five.There are generally two lunar eclipses each year. Of those, about half are partial or penumbral, and a lunar eclipse is visible from about one-half of the world. So wherever you live, you can expect to experience one total lunar eclipse about every other year.Depending on the precise alignment of the Sun, Moon and Earth, a lunar eclipse can take anywhere from a few minutes (for a partial eclipse) to three or four hours, from beginning to end.
How many times a year does a lunar eclipse occur?
Total lunar eclipses occur between 0-3 times per year.
How many years till another eclipse?
Well if its a lunar eclipse with a full moon on a solctice then it is 84 years. I dont know about a reagular lunar eclipse though.
How many years apart are the lunar and the solar eclipse?
4.1 Solar eclipse; 4.2 Lunar eclipse

How many lunar eclipse are there?
none to 3 lunar eclipses a year
What are the myths about being born during a lunar eclipse?
I've heard many, I've been told that being born on a lunar eclipse can result in you going crazy if you ever 'see' another, I was born on a lunar eclipse and I've seen plenty. People just say things, a myth is all it is.
How many years does it take to have an eclipse?
There are generally two lunar eclipses each year. Of those, about half are partial or penumbral, and a lunar eclipse is visible from about one-half of the world. So wherever you live, you can expect to experience one total lunar eclipse about every other year. Depending on the precise alignment of the Sun, Moon and Earth, a lunar eclipse can take anywhere from a few minutes (for a partial eclipse) to three or four hours, from beginning to end.
How many years does it take to have a lunar eclipse?
One happens every year, but it only appears in specific regions every 20-50 years.
How many times during a year could there be a solar or lunar eclipse?
During the 100 years of the 20th Century (1901 - 2000), there were 228 solar eclipses and 13 times lunar eclipses.
How many times in a month a lunar eclipse can happen?
Lunar eclipses can happen a maximum of twice per year, and only at the time of the full moon. Sometimes the alignment is just right, and we get a total lunar eclipse. If the alignment isn't exact, we might get a partial or a penumbral eclipse instead of a total eclipse.
