Answer:

A lunar eclipse can happen only when the moon is directly opposite to the sun in the sky with the earth in between.

Solar eclipse and lunar eclipse differences (Surya Grahan vs Chandra Grahna)

Solar eclipse (Surya Grahan) Lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan)

Happens once in 18 months. Occurs two times in a year.
