Is there only a lunar eclipse and a solar eclipse?
The two primary types of eclipses seen from Earth are the solar eclipse and the lunar eclipse. These two types of eclipses can then be broken down into four different types; a total eclipse, partial eclipse, annular eclipse or hybrid eclipse.

About Solar Eclipse
A solar eclipse occurs when the moon's orbit takes it to a position between the Earth and the Sun. The moon's image makes it appear that a 'bite' is taken out of the sun. The moon can completely cover the sun (at least it appears so) during a total eclipse of the sun. These are very rare, and in ancient times were thought to be mystical occurrences.
About Lunar Eclipse
A lunar eclipse takes place when the shadow of the earth passes between the sun and the moon. There is always a full moon the night of a lunar eclipse.
