Answer:

Predicting solar eclipses

Eclipses do not happen at every new moon, of course. This is because the moon's orbit is tilted just over 5 degrees relative to Earth's orbit around the sun. For this reason, the moon's shadow usually passes either above or below Earth, so a solar eclipse doesn't occur.
