What is the only lunar phase during which a solar eclipse can occur?
Solar eclipses happen during NEW moons, when the Moon blocks the light of the Sun. Lunar eclipses happen during FULL moons, when the Earth blocks the light of the Sun.
Which planets doesnt have lunar and solar eclipse?
Uranus and Venus do not experience lunar or solar eclipses. Due to their unique orbital characteristics and the angles of their orbits relative to the Sun, conditions for eclipses are not possible on these planets.
Why dos Jupiter and Saturn have no eclipses?
In order to have a solar eclipse, the moon needs to have the same angular size as the Sun. Non of Jupiter's and Saturn's moons have that characteristic. They do however have lunar eclipses, when their moons enter the planets' shadows.
Why don't solar and lunar eclipses occur during every lunar orbit?
Solar and lunar eclipses do not occur during every lunar orbit because the Moon's orbit is tilted about 5 degrees relative to Earth's orbital plane. This tilt means that during most full moons and new moons, the Earth, Moon, and Sun are not perfectly aligned. Eclipses only happen when the Sun, Earth, and Moon align closely enough, which occurs during specific points in their orbits known as "eclipse seasons." These eclipse seasons happen approximately every six months, allowing for a limited number of eclipses each year.
How many lunar eclipses happen on Jupiter?
A lunar eclipse is where the Moon is in the shadow of the planet earth. The equivalent happens in Jupiter's system constantly, since the planet is so large and the sun appears only as a tiny ball of light. Jupiter's moons will orbit the planet and will be in complete shadow for long periods of time as they go behind Jupiter on every orbit.
Why does the lunar eclipses happen more often?
Earth's shadow is bigger comoared to the moons

What 2 planets to not experience solar or lunar eclipses?
Mercury and Venus do not, mainly because they have no moons.
How many years are there between two blood moons?
The time between two blood moons, which occur during total lunar eclipses, can vary. However, on average, a blood moon occurs approximately every 2.5 to 3 years within the same location. This periodicity depends on the cycles of the Earth, moon, and sun, but there is no fixed number of years between them universally. Each series of lunar eclipses may have varying intervals based on their specific circumstances.

Which of the following properties of light causes eclipses?
None. Eclipses are a result of the moons position relative to the earth and the sun. Solar and lunar are 2 different types of eclipses. Simply put an eclipse is the result of light from the sun being blocked by the moon from our perspective here on Earth.
Whats a lunar month?
A lunar month is the period of time between new or full moons.
Do eclipses occur monthly?
Eclipses of Jupiter's moons occur daily. But if you mean the regular solar and lunar eclipses, no, most of the time the Moon will pass by one of the sides of the position required for the eclipse, so there is no eclipse. That is because the Earth's orbit around the Sun, and the Moon's orbit around the Earth, are not exactly in the same plane.Eclipses of Jupiter's moons occur daily.

if you have enough light and water
