How many times big the Sun from Moon?
The Sun is about 400 times as big (diameter) as the Moon. It just happens that the Sun is about 400 times as far away as the Moon so that when the Moon is between the Earth and the Sun there can be a total eclipse of the Sun. The orbit of the Moon is eleiptical , sometimes close and sometimes farther away from the earth and when the alignment happens at a time when the Moon is farther away, the eclipse is annular (like a ring).
Which is larger the moon or the sun?
Saturn - It is larger than both the earth and the moon
When the moon passes over the sun to make an eclipse why does the moon cover the entire sun if it is so big?
When the moon passes in front of the sun, it only blocks a portion of the sun that you would normally be able to see. Since the sun is so far away it also maks the moon bigger on scale to the distance of the sun. What I'm trying to say there is that the sun looks smaller than the moon from earth and that is why there are eclipses. Hope that answers the question
Is the angular size of the moon always big enough to cover up the sun during an e clipse?
No, the angular size of the moon is not always big enough to cover up the sun during an eclipse. A total solar eclipse occurs when the moon is at the right distance from the Earth to appear to be the same size as the sun, thus fully covering it.
The sun is very big compared to the moon?
Yes, the Sun is much larger than our Moon. It is, by far, the largest object in our solar system It is a strange fact that the sun is 400 times larger than the Moon in diameter. The Moon is 400 times closer to us. The result is that the two discs look equal in diameter and this accounts for the total eclipse of the Sun.
How big is the moon compared to the sun?
The moon is much smaller than the sun. The sun is about 400 times larger in diameter than the moon.
What is bigger the earth sun or the moon?

Does the sun and the moon seem to be the same exact size during an solar ellipse?
the sun is a very big thing and is far away the moon is small compared to the sun and is near to us when the big sun goes far away it seems to be as big as the moon near to us
Why the sun and moon seems to be the same size in the sky?
The sun is big but far away. the moon is close(er) but smallish
How big is the sun from the moon?
The Sun looks the same size from the Moon as it does from the Earth, varying from smaller to larger by less than 1%.
How big is the Sun in comparison to the moon and earth?
The diameter of the sun is about 109 times the diameter of the earth,and about 400 times the diameter of the moon.
How big is the moon and sun together?
If you could compare the sun to the size of a penny, an electronic microscope would be needed to see the moon.
Is the sun is bigger than a moon?
The sun's diameter is about 400 times as big as our moon's diameter, 108 times as big as the Earth's, and about 10 times the diameter of the biggest planet (Jupiter).
Are moon and sun the same?
No. The sun is the bright yellow thing in the sky. The moon is the big white thing in the sky.
