Question

what is solar eclipse?​

Answer 1

A solar eclipse occurs when an observer passes through the shadow cast by the Moon which fully or partially blocks the Sun. This can only happen when the Sun, Moon and Earth are nearly aligned on a straight line in three dimensions during a new moon when the Moon is close to the ecliptic plane.

Answer 2

>>A solar eclipse occurs when the moon gets between Earth and the sun, and the moon casts a shadow over Earth.

>> But whether the alignment produces a total solar eclipse, a partial solar eclipse or an annular solar eclipse depends on several factors.
