When the moon is in the middle of the lineup and gets between the earth and the sun?

What happens is a solar eclipse. The Moon casts a shadow on the Earth. This does not happen on each revolution because the Moon's orbit it tilted, so an eclipse only happens when the Moon is crossing the ecliptic at the right moment.


What are the three planets and moon from strongest gravity to weakest?

It depends on the mass of the moon and the relation of it's proximity to the planet it is orbiting. Since humans have only traveled to the Earth's moon, we can only truly get an understanding by being there. However, we do have an idea of how strong or weak gravity is on each moon. More than likely, the moon with the weakest gravity is most likely Mars' two moons, which aren't really moons, rather old asteroids orbiting the red planet. Phobos and Deimos. The two moons with the strongest gravity are most likely Titan (The only known moon in the solar system with a thick atmosphere) and Triton (One of Neptune's moons). Now for the planets: The planet with the weakest gravity is most likely Mars. The atmosphere is extremely thin and the planet is bitterly cold. Now, the planets that receive the strongest gravity award are the gas giants. All gas giants (Jupiter; Saturn; Uranus; Neptune) would literally crush you into nothing the gravity is so strong. These planets are also the deadliest and most uninhabitable. But, to sum everything up, there is no clear cut 'one to three' lineup. The solar system is still very mysterious and holds secrets scientists still have to uncover. Hope this helps and answers your question.
