How many times big the Sun from Moon?
The Sun is about 400 times as big (diameter) as the Moon. It just happens that the Sun is about 400 times as far away as the Moon so that when the Moon is between the Earth and the Sun there can be a total eclipse of the Sun. The orbit of the Moon is eleiptical , sometimes close and sometimes farther away from the earth and when the alignment happens at a time when the Moon is farther away, the eclipse is annular (like a ring).

When the moon passes over the sun to make an eclipse why does the moon cover the entire sun if it is so big?
When the moon passes in front of the sun, it only blocks a portion of the sun that you would normally be able to see. Since the sun is so far away it also maks the moon bigger on scale to the distance of the sun. What I'm trying to say there is that the sun looks smaller than the moon from earth and that is why there are eclipses. Hope that answers the question
