When does a solar eclipse occurs why?

A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between the Earth and the Sun, blocking the Sun's light and casting a shadow on Earth. This alignment causes the Moon to temporarily obscure the Sun, leading to a solar eclipse.


When was the moon closest to the sun it is at?

* When Earth is at periapsis (closest to the Sun, in January), Earth, and therefore the Moon, are closer to the Sun than when Earth is at apapsis. * On average, at new moon the Moon is closer to the Sun than at full moon, since at full moon the Moon is opposite to the Sun in the sky.


Why do annular solar eclipses happen?

An annular eclipse occurs when the Sun and Moon are exactly in line, but the apparent size of the Moon is smaller than that of the Sun. This is because the distance of the moon from earth varies. The Sun appears as a very bright ring, or annulus, surrounding the outline of the Moon.


Which is the smallest planet out of the Earth the Sun and the Moon?

Where the sun be in the moon phase transporter?

In the context of the Moon phase transporter, the position of the Sun relative to the Moon determines the phase of the Moon we observe from Earth. During a New Moon, the Sun and Moon are aligned, with the Sun illuminating the far side of the Moon. In contrast, during a Full Moon, the Earth is positioned between the Sun and the Moon, allowing the Sun to illuminate the side of the Moon facing us. The Moon phases progress as the Moon orbits Earth, with its position changing in relation to the Sun.

If you look at the bright part of the Moon, that is where the Sun is shining so it has to be day. But away from the Sun the sky still looks dark.


Why do you see different phases of the moon if the same side is always facing the earth?

The phases of the moon are the result of the ever-changing positions of the Earth, moon, and sun relative to one another. When the moon and the sun are on opposite sides of the earth (whereby the sun, earth, and moon form a straight line), a full moon occurs. When the moon and sun are on the same side of the earth (whereby the sun,moon, and earth form a straight line), a new moon occurs.
