Answer:
In absolute terms, the Sun and the Moon couldn't be more different in size. The Sun measures 1.4 million km across, while the Moon is a mere 3,474 km across. In other words, the Sun is roughly 400 times larger than the Moon. ... From our perspective, the Sun and the Moon look almost exactly the same size.
Explanation:
The Sun emits light while the Moon merely reflects it.
As the Earth rotates on its axis and revolves around the Sun, day and night and seasons result. When the new moon comes between the Earth and the Sun along the ecliptic, a solar eclipse is produced. When the Earth comes between the full moon and the Sun along the ecliptic, a lunar eclipse occurs.
