It is known as a solar eclipse.
Despite being a modern person, when I once witnessed a solar eclipse, I could not help in feeling in awe, and a little bit small in the whole of the Universe.
When the moon is positioned between the Earth and the sun, it results in a solar eclipse. During this event, the moon blocks the sun's light either partially or completely, depending on the observer's location on Earth. This alignment occurs during a new moon phase.
It forms when the moon completely blocks the sun! WOW!
When one celestial body blocks the light from another, it is called an eclipse. In a solar eclipse, the Moon passes between the Earth and the Sun, obscuring the Sun's light. Conversely, in a lunar eclipse, the Earth blocks sunlight from reaching the Moon. Eclipses can provide valuable insights into astronomical phenomena and the positions of celestial bodies.
During a total solar eclipse, the shadow is called the umbra. It is the darkest part of the shadow where the moon completely blocks the sun. The umbra creates the area on the Earth where a total eclipse can be seen.

A Solar Eclipse
When the moon is positioned between you and the sun, it is called a solar eclipse. During this event, the moon blocks the sun's light, either partially or completely, depending on the alignment. A total solar eclipse occurs when the moon completely covers the sun, while a partial solar eclipse happens when only a portion of the sun is obscured.
A solar eclipse occurs when the moon blocks the sun's light from reaching Earth. This phenomenon can result in either a total solar eclipse, where the sun is completely obscured, or a partial solar eclipse, where only part of the sun is covered.
During a new moon, the earth blocks the sun's rays from hitting the moon, and thus does not let the moon reflect light to your eye. Basically, the new moon is covered completely by the earth's shadow.
When the moon blocks the Sun's light from reaching Earth, and also when our planet Earth blocks the Sun's light from reaching the moon.

When the moon appears completely dark it is called a new moon.
