What causes a total eclipse of the sun?
The moon passes in front of the sun and this causes a shadow to be cast on the earths serface. When the sun is completely covered by the moon this is called a total eclipse.
What does the Moon's gravitational pull causes?
sun and the moon
What causes the moon to orbit around the sun?
the moon doesent orbit the sun, the earth orbits the sun and the moon orbits the earth.
What is the relative locations of the sun earth and the moon during a new moon phase?
During the new moon, the Moon is in the same direction as the Sun - in front of the Sun, basically, since the Sun is farther away.
Does a lunar eclipse occurs when the moon passes into earth's shadow?
Yes, Earth is between the sun and the moon, causing the moon to pass through Earth's shadow. A solar eclipse occurs when the moon is between Earth and the sun causing the bright ring in the sky.

Does the sun go in front of the moon or does the moon go in front of the sun?
The Moon goes in front of the Sun. The Moon is closer to the Earth than the Sun, so when both the Moon and Sun can be seen from the Earth (i.e. they are both in the same direction) the Moon will always be closer.
What can change shape and get light from the sun?
Clouds can change shape and get light from the sun when they pass in front of it, causing shadows to form on the ground.

How does lunar eclipse occurs?

Why can astronomers predict eclipses?
Astronomers can predict eclipses because they understand the movements of the Earth, Moon, and Sun in space. By tracking their positions and orbits, astronomers can calculate when the Moon will pass in front of the Sun (solar eclipse) or when the Earth will pass between the Sun and the Moon (lunar eclipse). This knowledge allows astronomers to forecast eclipses with accuracy.
What does the Moon's gravitational pull causes?
sun and the moon
How does the moon become a new moon?
The new Moon "phase" is when the Moon is (more or less) in front of the Sun. We cannot normally see the Moon in this phase. If the Moon is exactly in front of the Sun, the Moon covers the Sun and we see a solar eclipse.
Could the sun pass between the earth and the moon?
No. The Earth revolves around the sun, and the moon revolves around the Earth. Therefore, it is physically impossible for the sun to pass between the Earth and the Moon.
What causes a total solar eclipese?
It occurs when the moon passes in front of the sun, so throwing a shadow over the earth.
What causes the sunlight on the moon?
The sun.
