Why does a lunar eclipse last longer the a solar eclipse?

Because a lunar eclipse is seen simultaneously by everyone occupying the dark side of the Earth. The Earth is larger than the Moon so the Moon has a long way to travel in its orbit before it comes out of the shadow. On the other hand a solar eclipse is only seen on a relatively small part of the Earth's surface. The Moon, being small, casts a relatively small shadow on the Earth's surface.


When the moon can be seen in lunar eclipse?

The Earth's moon is visable in both the nighttime and daytime sky depending on its position in its monthly orbit. A check of any reference book like the Old Farmer's Almanac (OFA) will give both rising and setting times (both AM and PM) for the moon as well as the location where it will rise on the horizon. As strange as it may seem, despite easily made observations and the data in the OFA some folks will dispute whether the moon can be seen in the daytime sky as The Bible describes the moon as "... a lesser light to rule the night ..."
