On the surface, not underground... unless you would be sitting in front of a television monitor...
Seriously, the size of the moon's shadow depends on how far away the moon is. Sometimes, when the moon's shadow falls on Earth there is no place where the moon seems to be blocking the whole sun. Then there is no total eclipse. It is a partial eclipse everywhere. To find out where to go to see the next total eclipse of the moon, (later than 24 Jan 12) just Google it.

If you were on earth in an area within the penumbra would you see a total or partial solar eclipse?
Yes, it is possible to see a total or partial solar eclipse on earth in an area within the penumbra.
Where is the observer during a solar eclipse?
The observer of a solar eclipse would typically be located on Earth, witnessing the event as the moon passes between the sun and Earth, causing either a partial or total eclipse. The specific location on Earth where the observer would be situated would depend on where the eclipse is visible from.
When there is a lunar eclipse observed from earth what eclipse will be observed from moon?
During a lunar eclipse observed from Earth, a solar eclipse would be observed from the perspective of the Moon. This occurs because the Earth blocks the sunlight from directly reaching the Moon, resulting in a solar eclipse from the Moon's point of view.
What happens when the sun the moon and the earth are lined up in a straight line?
We would have what is called a "Total Solar Eclipse." The Most recent Total Solar Eclipse happened in 1487. The Next Total Solar Eclipse will happen in 2079. An interval of approx. 601 years. But for lack of better explanation, we would have a solar eclipse that we get annually.
Would a person standing in the Moon's would see a total solar eclipse?
Yes, a person standing on the Moon would see a total solar eclipse if they were positioned in the right spot during a lunar eclipse. From the Moon's perspective, the Earth would pass directly in front of the Sun, creating a total eclipse. However, because the Moon has no atmosphere, the view would be stark and dramatic, with the Earth appearing as a dark disk silhouetted against the bright solar corona. This phenomenon is distinct from how we experience solar eclipses from Earth.
What does an astronaut facing the earth during a lunar eclipse what does he will observe?
During a lunar eclipse, an astronaut on the Moon facing Earth would see a total solar eclipse. The Earth would block the Sun's light, casting a shadow on the Moon and obscuring its surface. The Moon would appear dark or reddish due to the Earth's atmosphere refracting sunlight.
What phase does a solar eclipse occur during?
It is a new Moon. For a solar eclipse, the moon has to be between Earth and the Sun. We get a total lunar eclipse when Earth is between the Sun and the Moon. The Moon would have to be full for it to be eclipsed.
Is the sun covered completely by the moon?
Yes. That would occur when the eclipse occurs while the moon is near perigee. Closer to apogee the eclipse is not total, it is annular.
What is the type of eclipse that totally blacks out the sun from earths view?
This is a solar eclipse, specifically a total eclipse (Total solar eclipse I think is how you would word it).
Why is a solar eclipse not visible on every place on earth?
A solar eclipse happens when the moon orbits in front of the sun, Also on earth one half would be day and the other would be night. so the night half of earth wouldn't be able to see it because the suns not out at night
When a person on the earth is observing a lunar eclipse which eclipse an astronaut on the moon facing the earth observe?
The astronaut on the moon would observe a solar eclipse. This is because the Earth is blocking the Sun from the astronaut's point of view, similar to how the Moon blocks the Sun during a solar eclipse seen from Earth.
