There was 2 lunar eclipses in 2008.
The answer very much depends on the year. One calendar year has a minimum of four eclipses, which are two solar eclipses and two lunar eclipses. A year can have as many as seven eclipses. So each year is different.
Total lunar eclipses occur between 0-3 times per year.
This statement is inaccurate. Lunar and solar eclipses can be predicted with high accuracy using astronomical calculations and models. The timing and visibility of eclipses can be forecasted many years in advance.
it's quite rare, but it's possible to have no lunar eclipses at all in a year, if the geometry between the Earth, Moon and Sun doesn't quite work out. The maximum possible number, again VERY rare, is five. Typically, we have two lunar eclipses per year.

On average, we can expect two lunar eclipses and two solar eclipses in any year. 2010 will have four eclipses, right on the average.

There are typically between 2 to 7 eclipses each year, which can be a combination of solar and lunar eclipses. Solar eclipses occur when the Moon passes between the Earth and the Sun, while lunar eclipses happen when the Earth passes between the Sun and the Moon.

There is only going to be one!

During the 100 years of the 20th Century (1901 - 2000), there were 228 solar eclipses and 13 times lunar eclipses.
