A solar eclipse is visible from any place on Earth when it is a total solar eclipse. During a total solar eclipse, the Moon completely covers the Sun, creating a narrow path of darkness on Earth. People within this path will experience the total eclipse, while those outside the path may see a partial eclipse.

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 lunar eclipse may be visible to all the people on one side of Earth. This occurs when the Earth comes between the Sun and the Moon, casting its shadow over the Moon. As the Earth rotates, the eclipse becomes visible to people on the side of the Earth facing the Moon.
When earth shadow falls on the moon does this cause a solar 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
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.

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.
Compare a solar eclipse to a lunar eclipse?
A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between the Sun and Earth, blocking the Sun's light. A lunar eclipse happens when the Earth comes between the Sun and the Moon, causing Earth's shadow to cover the Moon. Solar eclipses are visible during the day, while lunar eclipses are visible at night.
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.
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)
Are total solar eclipse visible from anywhere on the earth?
No, only in a very limited area.
Why is the lunar eclipse more frequent than the solar eclipse?

During the 100 years from 1901 to 2000, there were 228 solar eclipsesand 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'sbecause a solar eclipse, when it happens, is visible from only a small area on earth,whereas a lunar eclipse is visible from the entire night-time half of the earth.
