Why does solar eclipse always occur on a new moon day?
At such times, Earth's shadow falls on the full moon, causing a lunar eclipse. A solar eclipse happens at the opposite phase of the moon – new moon – when the moon passes between the sun and Earth. ... But the moon's orbit is inclined to Earth's orbit by about 5 degrees.
