A solar eclipse, such as the one inAugust 2017, occurs only at new Moon, when the lunar disk passes directly between us and the Sunand the Moon's shadow falls somewhere on Earth's surface. Conversely, a lunar eclipse takes place during full Moon, when our satellite passes through Earth's shadow.

A solar eclipse happens when the New Moon moves between Earth and theSun while a
lunar eclipse occurs when Earth casts a shadow on the Full Moon. If a planet comes between Earth and the Sun, and is visible as a black dot against the Sun, it is called a planet transit.
