The event where the moon is not illuminated by solar rays is called a "lunar eclipse." During a lunar eclipse, the Earth is positioned between the sun and the moon, causing the Earth's shadow to fall on the moon. This can result in a partial or total eclipse, depending on the alignment of the three celestial bodies.
