A shadow cast on one object in space on another is ECLIPSE
In space, when one object blocks the light from reaching another object, a shadow is cast. This effect is similar to shadows on Earth, but in the vacuum of space, shadows can be more defined, especially when the background is bright, like a star or a planet. These shadows can provide important information about the shapes and positions of objects in space.
Shadows are created when an object blocks light from a source, such as the sun. The object prevents light from reaching the surface behind it, casting a shadow in the space where the light is blocked. The size and shape of the shadow depend on the position of the light source, the object, and the surface where the shadow is cast.
Those objects illuminated by a star and close enough together to enter into each others umbras or penumbras.
shadow
An eclipse is when a object in space is fully or partially blocked from view temporarily by another object or its shadow. The term is typically used to refer to the moon blocking the sun, a solar eclipse, or the Earth's shadow blocking the moon, a lunar eclipse.
It is called an eclipse.

To cast a shadow, three things are needed: a source of light, an object to block the light, and a surface for the shadow to be projected onto.
Any object that revolves around another object in space is called a satilite.
