Question

Explain what solar and lunar eclipses are and the conditions required for them to take place.

Answer 1

Answer:

A solar eclipse results when the moon passes in between the earth and the sun hiding the sun fully or partly for some time. A lunar eclipse occurs when the earth passes in between the moon and the sun casting its shadow on the moon and thus hiding it fully or partly for some time.

1)It must be full moon (for a lunar eclipse) or new moon (for a solar eclipse).

2. The Moon must be at or near one of the two points in its orbit where it crosses the ecliptic plane (its nodes).
