The moon is never "blocked out". It's not even clear what that might look like,
or what it means.
-- During a solar eclipse, the moon gets in the way, so that you can't see the sun
for a few minutes.
-- During a lunar eclipse, the Earth gets in the way, so that the sun can't shine
on the moon and light it up for a few hours.
a Lunar Eclipse
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.
The earth gets it's light from the sun. During a total solar eclipse, the moon blocks that light.
The moon can appear completely dark from Earth during a total lunar eclipse. This phenomenon occurs when the Earth passes directly between the sun and the moon, blocking sunlight from reaching the moon's surface. During this event, the moon can take on a reddish hue due to the Earth's atmosphere filtering and bending some sunlight into the shadow. However, when fully eclipsed, it can seem to vanish entirely from view.
An eclipse is a shadow. A lunar eclipse is the shadow of the Earth darkening the Moon, while a solar eclipse is a shadow of the Moon darkening the Earth.
A solar eclipse occurs when the moon passes between the Earth and the sun, blocking the sunlight. A lunar eclipse happens when the Earth comes between the sun and the moon, causing Earth's shadow to cover the moon.
This Is A Solar Eclipse, Where The Moon Is Between The Sun & The Earth, Blocking The Sunlight From The Earth With The Moon.
a Lunar Eclipse
When the Earth blocks the Moon from the Sun, it causes a lunar eclipse. This occurs when the Earth's shadow falls on the Moon, temporarily blocking sunlight from reaching it. The Moon may appear reddish during a lunar eclipse due to some sunlight being refracted through Earth's atmosphere.
The moon is only big enough to block sunlight from a small spot on the Earth ... never more than about 170 miles across. On the rare occasion when that happens, the event is called a "solar eclipse".An eclipse occurs when the Moon blocks sunlight from reaching Earth. The same is true when the opposite occurs.

When Earth moves into the Moon's shadow, we experience a lunar eclipse. This occurs when Earth blocks the sunlight reaching the Moon, casting a shadow on the lunar surface.
