Both happen with roughly the same frequency, but one is more likely to see a lunar eclipse because it can be seen by anyone on the entire night side hemisphere of the earthwhile it is happening, while a solar eclipse can only be seen by those people within the small circle of the moon's shadow on the surface of the earth on the day side hemisphere of the earthwhile it is happening everyone outside this circle cannot see the solar eclipse.
