How many times do you have total solar eclipse?
On average, total solar eclipses happen around once every 18 months somewhere on Earth. However, a total solar eclipse is only visible from any specific location on Earth about once every 375 years.
Which type of eclipse may be visible to all the people on one side of Earth?
A solar eclipse covers a very narrow path on the Earth, so usually not many people get a chance to see one. It doesn't help that the Earth is 75% water, and some solar eclipses never touch land at all. Lunar eclipses happen on the Moon, not on the Earth, so the entire night-side of the Earth can see it. As for how long the eclipse lasts, solar eclipses last longer because the Earth is bigger than the Moon is. However, the path of totality travels quickly over the Earth, and if you're standing on the Earth watching the eclipse, the eclipse will be over - for YOU - quickly, because the Moon's shadow has moved on. If you could be in a supersonic aircraft keeping up with it, you would be able to see that it actually lasts longer, but from one spot on Earth, a solar eclipse comes and goes VERY quickly.
When earth shadow falls on the moon does this cause a solar eclipse?
No, when the moon's shadow falls on the earth, this is a solar eclipse. When the earth's shadow falls on the moon, it is a lunar eclipse.
What the line up during a solar and a lunar eclipse?

Can you explain the difference between a lunar and solar eclipse and how they differ in terms of visibility and impact on Earth"?
A lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth passes between the Sun and the Moon, casting a shadow on the Moon. This makes the Moon appear darker or reddish in color. A solar eclipse happens when the Moon passes between the Sun and the Earth, blocking the Sun's light and casting a shadow on Earth. Solar eclipses are more rare and can only be seen in certain areas, while lunar eclipses are visible from anywhere on the night side of Earth. Solar eclipses can have a more dramatic impact on Earth, affecting temperature and wildlife behavior, while lunar eclipses are mainly a visual spectacle.
Is a total solar eclipse visible to all spots on the earth?
no
Which celestial event do more people witness: a solar eclipse or a lunar eclipse?
More people witness a lunar eclipse compared to a solar eclipse because a lunar eclipse is visible from anywhere on the nighttime side of Earth, while a solar eclipse is only visible from a specific region on Earth where the moon's shadow falls.
When is the next solar eclipse taking place in England?
The next solar eclipse visible in England will occur on August 12, 2026. This will be a partial solar eclipse, where a portion of the Sun will be obscured by the Moon. For a more significant solar eclipse, the next total solar eclipse visible in parts of the UK will take place on September 23, 2090.
What Place on earth a lunar eclipse is never seen in June?
When a lunar eclipse is in progress, it's visible from any place on earth where the moon is visible ... nominally half of the earth's surface. There is no month during which a lunar eclipse can't occur, and no place on earth from which a lunar eclipse can't be seen.The story is completely different regarding SOLAR eclipses. When the sun is in eclipse, the appearance is different depending on the observer's position on earth; in particular, the eclipse appears 'total' from only a small region at any one time.If the question had specified a 'solar eclipse', then in Antarctica, for example, there is a large part of the continent where the sun never rises in June, so a June solar eclipse could never be observed from there.
What is the type of eclipse is there when the moon is between the sun and earth?
Solar eclipse
Is a solar eclipse visible anywhere on earth?

Is lunar eclipse is more frequent than a solar eclipse?
No. during the 100 years from 1901 to 2000, there were 228 solar eclipses and 229 lunar ones ... an average of about 2.3 of each every year. If you stay in one place, though, you see lunar eclipses more frequently. That's because a solar eclipse is visible from only a small area on earth, whereas a lunar eclipse is visible from wherever the moon is visible ... the entire night-time half of the earth.
What are the differences between solar and lunar eclipses?
A solar eclipse happens when the moon (that is passing between the sun and earth) covers the sun. At same point, the sun will only be partially visible (parcial eclipse) or will not visible at all (total eclipse). A lunar eclipse happens when the earth is between the sun and the moon. When sunlight hits the earth it projects a shadow and, if the moon is somewhere in the area of that shadow, it will not be visible.
Where is the moon in the solar eclipse?
During a complete solar eclipse (In which neither the sun or moon is visible) the moon is in front of the sun, blocking its light from the earth.
Compare a solar eclipse to a lunar eclipse?
A solar eclipse is when the moon blocks the suns light coming to the earth... a lunar eclipse is when the light from the sun is blocked and so you can't see it but it is there...
What happens after the eclipse finishes?
Depending on whether it is a Lunar (moon) or Solar (sun) eclipse, the sun or moon becomes fully visible and out of the shadow of the earth (lunar eclipse) or moon (solar eclipse)
