When the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun, the side of the Moon that is in shadow faces Earth, which is known as a new moon
Solar Eclipse:
- The little part of the Moon is pointing away from us, an observer on Earth cannot see it.
- A solar eclipse happens when the Moon passes between the Earth and the Sun, forming a nearly straight line between the three astronomical objects.
- Because the moon passes between the Earth and the Sun on new moon days, solar eclipses are only possible.
- A solar eclipse does not occur at every new moon, and a lunar eclipse does not occur at every full moon, since the Moon's orbital plane is inclined to the ecliptic, the plane of Earth's orbit around the Sun.
Conclusion:
The moon passes between the Earth and the Sun on new moon days, solar eclipses are only possible.
