What results on earth when the sun and the moon are aligned?

When the sun and the moon are aligned, we experience either a new moon or a full moon. During a new moon, the sun and moon are aligned with the moon between the Earth and the sun, causing the moon to be largely invisible. During a full moon, the sun, Earth, and moon are aligned with the Earth between the sun and the moon, resulting in a fully illuminated moon.

Why does a solar eclipse occur during a new moon?

Because the moon gets between the sun and the Earth. You can't see a new moon because the sun is behind it and not shining on the face that we always see. A solar eclipse can only happen when the moon is between the sun and earth, perfectly aligned.


Where is the moon in a total solar eclipse?

It's exactly on the line between the sun and your eye, so that when you lookdirectly at the sun, the moon is exactly in the way, blocking your view so thatyou can't see the sun.
