Do lunar occur every 3 years?
Typically, lunar eclipses occur once or twice a year. Because more than half of all lunar eclipses are partial, and because lunar eclipses are visible only from the side of the Earth where the Moon is up, you would generally be able to see a total lunar eclipse every other year or every 3rd year from your location. The rest of the eclipses would be either partial, or not visible from your location. You can check the NASA Eclipse Web Page to see the catalog of all eclipses from 2000 BCE to 3000 AD at the link below.
Why do most people think that lunar eclipses occur more often then a solar eclipses?
Most people may think lunar eclipses occur more often because lunar eclipses are visible from a larger geographic area on Earth compared to solar eclipses. Lunar eclipses also last longer and are easier to observe with the naked eye, making them seem more common. However, in reality, both lunar and solar eclipses occur at about the same frequency.
