It is called a solar eclipse when the Moon's shadow hits Earth, and a lunar eclipse when Earth's shadow hits the Moon.
Does the moons shadow change relative to the sun?
Yes, the moon's shadow changes relative to the sun due to the moon's position in its orbit around Earth. During a solar eclipse, the moon casts a shadow on Earth, and the size and shape of that shadow can vary depending on the distance between the moon and Earth, as well as the alignment of the sun, moon, and Earth. This results in different types of eclipses, such as total, partial, or annular, which depend on how the moon's shadow interacts with the Earth's surface.
