What else can I help you with?
Can there be a gibbous moon and a lunar eclipse at the same time?
No. A lunar eclipse can occur only when the moon is full.
Is it possible to have a blue moon and a solar eclipse at the same time?
No. A blue moon happens when there is a second full moon. A solar eclipse happens when there is a new moon and it is right between the sun and the earth. But it is possible to have a blue moon and a lunar eclipse at the same time.
What kind of eclipse will occur if the moon is in the outer portion of the shadow?
During a full moon lunar eclipses can occur.
Why don't you get a lunar eclipse anytime the moon is full?
Because the moon is tilted slightly off of the degree of rotation of the earth. This is the same reason you don't get a solar eclipse everytime the moon is new.
What moon phase is when the moon it between the earth and sun?
That's Full Moon. If the arrangement is in exactly the same line, then there's a lunar eclipse.
Why does a lunar eclipse occur during the full moon?
A lunar eclipse can only occur on the night of a full moon because of the position that the moon is in during a full moon. During a lunar eclipse, the Earth is positioned in between the moon and the sun exactly so that the Earth casts its shadow on the moon. During a full moon, the sun, Earth, and moon are lined up in the same way as a lunar eclipse, but the Earth is either too high or too low to cast its shadow on the moon. The only position at which the moon is a full moon is at that position since we can only see part of the lit face of the moon when the moon is at a different position around the Earth.
How do you get a full solar eclipse?
You don't "get" a solar eclipse. The occur randomly in nature as the orbits of the earth and moon are so that the moon is between the sun and Earth where the moon blocks the light from the sun from reaching Earth. The same goes for the opposite, the lunar eclipse.
What phase is it when the earth is between the moon and sun?
That's Full Moon. If the arrangement is in exactly the same line, then there's a lunar eclipse.
Did an eclipse occur with each full and new moon?
No because eclipses don't have the same phases so therefore it wont occur with each full and new moon
Translate under the same moon in spanish?
The spelling is the same as in English: "lunar". Only the pronunciation varies.
When there is a full moon how often can lunar eclipse's occur?
The full moon cycles through each of the zodiac signs 12 times a year. Occasionally, it will occur in the same sign twice in one month.
Is a lunar eclipse the same as a new moon?
No, a lunar eclipse is not the same as a new moon. A lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth passes between the sun and the moon, casting a shadow on the moon. A new moon is when the moon is positioned between the Earth and the sun, so it is not visible from Earth.
