The earth is around 93 millionmiles away from the sun. Therefore, the Moon is much, much farther away from the Sun than it is from the Earth.
How did solar eclipse take place?
the eclipse starts at 10:00 p.m. eastern ___________________ Earth's experience of the solar eclipse is a happy coincidence of history. It just happens that we have a moon of the right size and favorable orbit. It will not always be so. In future ages, the moon will no longer be able to give us 'total' eclipses, because it is very slowly moving farther away from earth. At some point it will be too far to completely cover the face of the sun.
