Eclipses do not happen every month because the Moon is in an orbit that is inclined to the plane of the Earth's orbit, the ecliptic. So although the Moon passes behind the Earth (as seen from the Sun) every month, it usually passes above or below the Earth's shadow. For a lunar eclipse, Full Moon has to occur when the Moon is crossing the ecliptic, when it is said to be at a node.

What do you have when earth moves into the Moon's shadow?
When Earth moves into the Moon's shadow, we experience a lunar eclipse. This occurs when Earth blocks the sunlight reaching the Moon, casting a shadow on the lunar surface.

It would still be a lunar eclipse just on the moon and everything would be red. If you are on earth and a Lunar or a Solar eclipse happens than you are actually light than you would be regularly. To find out how much you weigh you take your weight and divide it by 1.5. So a lunar eclipse is just the same a lunar eclipse.

Every Lunar Eclipse comes from the same place, when the sun, moon, and earth are lined up in a straight line. So the first Lunar Eclipse is no different from the others.
How many times does the lunar eclipse come?
A lunar eclipse occurs around 2-4 times a year. However, not everyone on Earth will be able to see every lunar eclipse as visibility depends on location and timing.
How often does a lunar eclipse occur in the us?

How long for moon to orbit the earth?
why does a lunar or solar eclipse not occurs every month?
Why isn't there a lunar eclipse every month?
A lunar eclipse doesn't happen every month because the Moon's orbit is tilted relative to Earth's orbit around the Sun. This means that most of the time, the Moon passes above or below Earth's shadow, so a lunar eclipse only occurs when the alignment is just right.
