As I write this, at 6:30 PM PST on December 20, 2010, the next lunar eclipse will begin in about 4 hours.
The next lunar eclipse is set to occur on November 28th, 2012. This is a Penumbral Lunar Eclipse. April 25th, 2013 is when the next one from 2012 will occur. This is a Partial Lunar Eclipse. Keep in mind that an eclipse isn't always visible from every point on Earth-- You have to be fortunate that the shadow falls upon your region at the right time of day!
It will happen on the 20th of June at 12:30 pacific standard time.
When the conditions are right, a lunar eclipse can happen in ANY month, but only at the time of Full Moon.
A lunar eclipse can happen at the time of any Full Moon, but no more than about 5 times in a year, max.
A meteor shower and a full lunar eclipse occurring on the same day is rare but not impossible. The last time this happened was on December 21, 2010, when the Ursid meteor shower coincided with a total lunar eclipse. It is difficult to predict when this rare event will happen next as it depends on the alignment of celestial events.

The next eclipse will be a total lunar eclipse on May 16-17, 2022, visible from the Americas, Europe, Africa, and parts of Asia. The next solar eclipse will be a partial eclipse on October 25, 2022, visible from parts of North America.
A solar eclipse can only happen at the time of New Moon.A lunar eclipse can only happen at the time of Full Moon.
Lunar eclipses can be observed only during the night and only when the moon is far from the sun. Solar eclipses can be observed only during the day and only when the moon is near the sun.

The next time a meteor shower and eclipse occur on the same day will be on October 8, 2131. This event is rare because meteor showers and eclipses are separate celestial phenomena that do not frequently align on the same day.
The next lunar eclipse is on May 16, 2022, and it will begin at 3:32 a.m. UTC.
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.
