    Lunar eclipses occur in pairs with solar eclipses, two weeks apart. This is because the Earth, sun and moon must be aligned for an eclipse to occur, and the alignment can only happen twice during the moon's month-long orbit. A lunar eclipse lasts for hours as the moon slowly orbits through the Earth's shadow.
