Which lunar phase occurs two weeks after a new moon?
A solar eclipse can only occur at the moment of New Moon. Two weeks after that moment is about 18 hours before Full Moon.
Where do neap tides occur?
Neap tides are especially weak tides. They occur when the gravitational forces of the Moon and the Sun are perpendicular to one another (with respect to the Earth). Neap tides occur during quarter moons.
What two moon phases occur during tide?

What two factors determine when tides occur?
The rotation of the Earth and the moon
Does a lunar eclipse always occur at a full moon?
This is true. The full moon happens when the Moon is on the opposite side of the Earth from the Sun. Because the Moon's orbit is tilted a little relative to the Earth's, the Moon is usually not EXACTLY on the opposite side of the Earth - but when it is, the Moon orbits right into the Earth's shadow, and we see a lunar eclipse.

What season is the eclipse?
An Eclipse can occur at any season; Summer , Autumn, Winter, or Spring. Eclipses occur at ONLY New Moon and Full Moon. New and Full Moon's occur once a Month (Moonth). This is approximately every 28 days. An Eclipse at New Moon is a Solar Eclipse, because the Moon is between the Earth and the Sun; the sky goes to night(dark) An Eclipse at Full Moon is a Lunar Eclipse, because the Earth is between the Sun and the Moon; the moon appears to go from a bright white circle to a red/grey circle. The reason we do not see an eclipse every month is because The Moon's orbit, about the Earth is angled at 5 degrees, to the Earth's orbit about the Sun. It is only when these two orbits cross at New/Full Moons we see an eclipse.
When the earth passes directly between the sun and the moon briefly blocking out the moon this causes a what?
An eclipse of the Moon (or lunar eclipse) can only occur at Full Moon, and only if the Moon passes through some portion of Earth's shadow. That shadow is actually composed of two cone-shaped components, one nested inside the other.
During which lunar phase can a solar eclipse occur?
Full Moon.That's when the Moon is directly across from the sun, allowing the moon sun and earth to be in a straight line causing the eclipse (with the earth in the middle of course). Partial and penumbral lunar eclipses are when the Moon is ALMOST, but not quite, exactly lined up with the Sun and the Earth.Full moon Full moon
How long does it takes for a blue moon to occur?
A blue moon accurs everytime the moon gets bored, which is about every two three minutes.
What phase does a solar eclipse occur during?
It is a new Moon. For a solar eclipse, the moon has to be between Earth and the Sun. We get a total lunar eclipse when Earth is between the Sun and the Moon. The Moon would have to be full for it to be eclipsed.
What causes two tides to occur each day?
the gravitational pull on the earth from the moon
