Solar eclipses only occur on the same day as a New Moon because that's the only time the Moon is directly between the Earth and the Sun, which is necessary to create the eclipse
A solar eclipse is formed on a new moon day, when Sun , Moon and Earth come in a stragiht line. The eclipse occurs on the earth where shadow of moon falls on our lovely planet, Earth.
Solar eclipse happens when shadow of moon falls on sun. Solar eclipse cannot happen on full moon day because on full moon day earth is in between Sun and Moon and hence moon cannot cast shadow on sun.
A solar eclipse happens when the Moon blocks the light from the Sun, thus always observed at day. By contract, a lunar eclipse is the earth shading the light from the Sun on the Moon, and is therefore observable only at night when the Moon is visible.
No, it doesn't take place on every new moon day but yes, on some of them.
When the moon is in the middle of the path between the sun and the moon it is known as a solar eclipse and it occurs during the day.
You can see a solar eclipse when the moon passes between the sun and the earth during the day and the shadow of the moon falls on the earth.
A solar eclipse occurs when the moon gets between the Earth and the sun, blocking some of the light from the sun. During a solar eclipse, the moon seems to cover the sun in the sky. A lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth gets between the sun and the moon. When this happens, the moon cannot reflect the sun's light and appears darker in the sky.A lunar eclipse can only occur with a full moon and a solar eclipse can only occur with a new moon. In a lunar eclipse, the total phase can last for a maximum of 1 hour and 40 minutes. The maximum time of a solar eclipse is 7 minutes 40 seconds. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between the Earth and the Sun and a lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth passes between the Sun and the Moon.A solar eclipse happens when the shadow of the Moon is cast on the Earth. A lunar eclipse happens when the shadow of the Earth is cast on the Moon.A solar eclipse :1. Occurs when moon comes in between the Earth and the Sun.2. The Sun shows corona at its edges.3.

A solar eclipse is when the moon blocks the suns light coming to the earth... a lunar eclipse is when the light from the sun is blocked and so you can't see it but it is there...
-- All shadows, at least in the solar system, point directly away from the sun. -- For an eclipse of the sun, you need the moon's shadow to fall on the Earth. -- For an eclipse of the moon, you need the moon to pass through the Earth's shadow. -- It takes the moon about 14.8 days to get from one of these positions to the other.
When the sun is behind the moon, you see a solar eclipse. The moon blocks the sun's light, casting a shadow on the Earth's surface. This phenomenon is only visible in specific regions during the day.
When you are in the moon's shadow during a solar eclipse, you experience a total solar eclipse, which is when the moon completely blocks the sun's light. This creates a temporary moment of darkness during the day, and you can see the sun's corona, stars, and planets in the sky. It is a rare and awe-inspiring event to witness.
A lunar eclipse occurs during a full moon when the Earth passes between the Sun and the Moon, casting a shadow on the Moon. In contrast, a solar eclipse occurs during a new moon when the Moon passes between the Earth and the Sun, blocking the Sun's light from reaching Earth.
