What else can I help you with?
What are the similarities between lunar and solar eclipses?
The Sun, Moon, and Earth are all aligned in both.
What is the condition necessary for eclipse to occur?
a solor eclipse happens when the moon passes in front of the earth and son at a perfect angle and cast a shadow so every thing would be in total and upper most darkness unless you are far or not close to the eclipse sight.
What causes the shadow which makes the moon change its shape?
The shadow is caused by the earth blocking the path of the light from the sun casting shadow on the moon. When the earth is not in between the sun and the moon then we have a "full moon."
What causes the phases of the moon that is visible to earth?
The moon's phases are caused by the earth blocking the light from sun and casting a shadow on the moon. we are between the moon and the sun entirely at a new a new moon and we are not blocking any sun light at full moon.
What are the planets between the earth and the moon?
There are no "planets" between the Earth and its Moon (the closest astronomical body to our planet). Earth has no natural satellites other than the Moon, although some Sun-orbiting asteroids (notably 3753 Cruithne) have orbits that intersect the Earth's orbit and have moon-like resonances with Earth and other inner planets.There are two planets whose orbits are between the Earth and the Sun : Mercury and Venus.
What are the similarities between lunar and solar?
The Sun, Moon, and Earth are all aligned in both.
What are the similarities between lunar and solar eclipses?
The Sun, Moon, and Earth are all aligned in both.
Is the earth between the moon and the sun?
Venus and Mars
What is it when the earth is between the sun and the moon?
When the Earth is between the Moon and the Sun you get a full moon, not a new Moon which occurs when the Moon is between the Earth and the Sun. You could also get a Lunar eclipse.
The event where the Sun journeys between the Earth and the Moon is called?
The Sun is NEVER between the Earth and the Moon. When the Moon is between the Earth and the Sun, this is called a Solar Eclipse. When the Earth is between the Moon and the Sun, this is called a Lunar Eclipse.
What will happen if the earth get between the sun and moon?
When the Earth is between the Sun and the Moon, it is a Full Moon but when the Sun, Moon and Earth are directly in line - we will get a lunar eclipse.
How is a new moon and a lunar eclipse similar?
A new moon occurs when the moon is between the Earth and the sun, so it is not visible from Earth. During a lunar eclipse, the Earth comes between the sun and the moon, causing the Earth's shadow to be cast on the moon, making it appear dark. Both events involve the alignment of the Earth, moon, and sun in a specific way that affects the visibility of the moon from Earth.
Is it posseble for the sun to be found between Earth and the moon?
The distance from Earth to the sun is much greater than from Earth to the moon. It is not possible that the sun would be between Earth and the moon.
The Moon is between Earth and the Sun?
When the Moon is between the Earth and the Sun, it is in its new moon phase. From Earth, the side of the Moon facing us appears dark as the illuminated side is facing away from us towards the Sun. This alignment is known as a solar eclipse when the Moon blocks the Sun partially or completely as seen from Earth.
In a lunar eclipse is the moon between the sun and earth?
No. In a lunar eclipse Earth is between the sun and the moon, thus casting a shadow on the moon. When the moon passes between Earth and the sun it is a solar eclipse, to an observer on Earth, the moon eclipses the sun.
When is the earth between the moon and sun?
When the Earth is directly between the Moon and the Sun, it is a full moon.
When the moon is between the earth in the sun?
When the moon is directly between the earth and the sun, it's a solar eclipse, because the moon blocks the light from the sun from reaching the earth.
