During an eclipse of the moon, the edge of Earth's shadow is always the arc of a circle. Only spheres casts circular shadows; a flat surface would not do so.
For a eclipse you would need the earth, sun and the moon.A SOLAR ECLIPSE is where the sun is being obscured (hidden) by the moonwhen the sun is being obscured, it would get very dark outside, and the temperatures would drop.A LUNAR ECLIPSE is where the sun, earth and moon are aligned.
A:No. In the Qur'an, most references to the earth make it clear that it is flat like a carpet. In just one instance, there is ambiguity. Sura 79.030 is generally translated as "And after that He spread the earth," but Khalifa translates it as "He made the earth egg-shaped." The Greeks had established that the earth is spherical one thousand years before the Qur'an was written, so it would be nothing special if the Arabs knew of this.
According to Isaac Newton, initially the earth was a fluid body. However the rotation of the earth discards the possibility of it being spherical in shape. He concluded that the earth must have flattened poles that are caused due to the centrifugal force of rotation.
The evidence is largely from the way that seismic waves travel through the earth after an earthquake.(:

I'm not sure about producing a globe, but the Greek philosopher Pythagoras is credited with being the first to realize the Earth is spherical.
This is a solar eclipse. From Earth it would look as if the Sun is being blocked out by the Moon.
And eclipse may be partial or total, or penumbral or umbral. In a total (umbral) eclipse, the umbra of an object's shadow falls upon another object. Umbral solar eclipses are significantly rarer than any other type of eclipse. In a penumbral eclipse, an object's partial shadow, or penumbra, falls upon the other object.
a lunar eclipse is when the earth's shadow is cast over the moon, while a solar eclipse is when the moon's shadow is cast over the earth. the earth is a lot bigger than the moon (obviously), so it will have a larger shadow that cover the moon, therefore lasting longer -- on the other hand, the moon (being much smaller than the earth) will cast a smaller shadow over the earth (not even covering the entire earth)
Currently, Earth's neighboring planet, Mars is being tested for the evidence of life.
Because a lunar eclipse is seen simultaneously by everyone occupying the dark side of the Earth. The Earth is larger than the Moon so the Moon has a long way to travel in its orbit before it comes out of the shadow. On the other hand a solar eclipse is only seen on a relatively small part of the Earth's surface. The Moon, being small, casts a relatively small shadow on the Earth's surface.
