Lunar Eclipse occurs on a full moon day when the earth comes in between the Sun and the Moon and when all the three objects are aligned. A total lunar eclipse will occur when the whole moon comes under the umbral shadow of the Earth and the partial lunar eclipse occurs only when a part of the moon comes under the shadow of the Earth.
Unlike solar eclipses, watching the moon being shadowed by the Earth with naked eyes is perfectly safe.
