How much more light does the sun provide then the full moon?
The sun provides about 400,000 times more light than the full moon. This vast difference in brightness is due to the sun being a powerful star that emits its own light, while the moon only reflects light from the sun.
What is a solar elipse?
When the moon is between the earth and the sun, blocking the sun's light (from the perspective of earth).

The moon in no way produces light. It reflects light from the sun.

What is the difference between the solar eclisps and lunar eclisps?
A solar eclipse is when the moon blocks the sun's light from Earth. A Lunar eclipse is when the Earth blocks the sun's light from the moon.
What is the difference between a Lunar-Eclipse and a Solar-Eclipse?
In a solar eclipse, the Moon is between the Sun and the Earth, casting a shadow on the Earth. In a lunar eclipse, the Earth is between the Sun and the Moon, casting a shadow on the Moon.
What is the difference between a new moon and a solar eclipse?
A new moon occurs when the moon is positioned between the Earth and the sun, making it appear dark in the sky. A solar eclipse happens when the moon passes directly between the Earth and the sun, blocking the sun's light and casting a shadow on Earth.
What is the difference between a solar eclipse and a luner eclapes?

What are the differences between a solor eclipse lonor eclipse new moon and full moon?
A lunar eclipse means the Earth is exactly between the Sun and the Moon, so the Earth's shadow falls onto the Moon. A new moon means the Moon is roughly between the Sun and the Earth, so you can't see the Moon that easily because the side that is lit by the Sun is pointing away from us. If during a new moon the Moon should become _exactly_ between the Earth and the Sun, some people on Earth (if standing in the right place) would see a big chunk cut out of the Sun where the Moon is blocking its light, causing a shadow to go on the Earth. The Moon might even completely block out the Sun's light for a few minutes. This is called a Solar Eclipse.
