When you are in the moons shadow what is it called?
When you are in the moon's shadow during a solar eclipse, it is called the umbra. This is the central, darkest part of the shadow where the sun is completely blocked by the moon. Outside of the umbra is the penumbra, where the sun is only partially blocked, resulting in a partial eclipse.

How many moons do the outer planets have?
Jupiter 63 known moons, Saturn 60 known moons, Uranus 27 known moons, Neptune 13 known moons and Pluto (no longer classed as a planet) 3 known moons.
Planets that would experience eclipses of the sun?
Any planet with moons could potentially experience an eclipse. Transits are what happens when other planets (Mercury & Venus) pass between earth and sun. Neither of these have moons. Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto all have moons. Pluto's moon (Charon) is big and close to it--it may (depending on its orbit) occult the sun frequently. Jupiter usually has some lunar shadow dotting its sunside surface. Only earth and Pluto have moons big enough to produce total eclipses. (Not sure about dwarf planets beyond Pluto--some of which also have moons). Mars has two tiny moons.
