A lunar eclipse can only occur at the time of Full Moon, and that's the only occasion when the sun
and the moon can't be up at the same time. So at the moment when a lunar eclipse is in progress,
anybody who can see it is on the earth's night side. Of course, at the same moment, there's a whole
other side of earth where the sun is up and it's daytime. But nobody there can see the moon.
Lunar eclipses always occur at the full moon, while solar eclipses can only happen during a new moon. thats a horrible answer , you could get that from watching twilight once.
When you see a lunar eclipse, it's always at night on your part of the earth. -- A lunar eclipse can only occur at the exact time of the Full Moon. -- The Full Moon is visible only in the night sky. So obviously, if you are in a place where you can see the Full Moon, then you are in a place where you can see a lunar eclipse if one is in progress, and it is night-time where you are.
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.
No, solar eclipses occur during the day when the Moon passes between the Earth and the Sun, casting a shadow on the Earth. Nighttime eclipses are lunar eclipses when the Earth passes between the Sun and the Moon.
Lunar eclipses occur when the Earth passes between the Sun and the Moon, causing the Earth's shadow to fall on the Moon. Solar eclipses happen when the Moon passes between the Sun and the Earth, blocking the Sun's light from reaching Earth. Lunar eclipses can only happen during a full moon, while solar eclipses can only occur during a new moon.
Lunar eclipses occur precisely at the full moon.

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.

Yes.
Every year
Yes
Solar eclipses occur when the Moon is in the direct path between the Sun and Earth. Lunar eclipses occur when the Earth is in the direct path between the Sun and the Moon.
Lunar Eclipses occur when the moon is passing the sun and goes in front of it, making day like night until the moon has passed. They occur every 6 months followed by three partial eclipses. Don get them confused with Solar Eclipses!
