During a solar eclipse, the light observed is primarily due to the Sun's corona, which is the outer atmosphere of the Sun that becomes visible when the Moon temporarily blocks the Sun's bright surface. The corona emits a faint light that can be seen as a halo around the darkened silhouette of the Moon. In a lunar eclipse, the Earth casts a shadow on the Moon, and the light that reaches the Moon is refracted through Earth's atmosphere, giving it a reddish hue, often referred to as a "blood moon." These phenomena highlight the interplay of celestial bodies and the scattering of light in different atmospheric conditions.

Why does lunar eclipse occurs on a comparatively solar eclipse?

Lunar eclipses occur when Earth is right in between the moon and the sun therefore blocking the light of the sun from reflecting off the moon and makes the moon dark which means that if you're on the moon at the time of a lunar eclipse on Earth then Earth is blocking the sun from the moon and on the moon, it's a solar eclipse.


What is the properties of light causes eclipse?

During an eclipse, the properties of light that cause it are the blocking of light by an intervening object (e.g. the moon passing between the sun and Earth during a solar eclipse) and the scattering or bending of light (e.g. the Earth's atmosphere scattering sunlight to create a red color during a lunar eclipse).
