Why do total eclipse not occur during each full moon and new moon?
Total eclipses do not occur during every full moon and new moon because the orbits of the Earth and the Moon are tilted relative to each other by about 5 degrees. This tilt means that the Moon often passes above or below the Earth's shadow during a full moon (lunar eclipse) and the Earth’s shadow often misses the Moon during a new moon (solar eclipse). Total eclipses only happen when the Sun, Earth, and Moon align perfectly, which occurs only a few times a year.
