That is NOT the case. A solar eclipse has to happen DURING the day time but from a particular location on Earth the eclipse may be seen as the Sun is rising or setting (in other words at any time of the day).
Note, while a solar eclipse is not constrained to happening at the MIDDLE of the day it has to happen DURING daytime because the clipse is caused by the Moon's shadow, so the Moon has to be between the Earth and the day time Sun for this to happen.
What else can I help you with?
Which moon phase do solar eclipses happen?
Solar eclipses can only occur at the new moon, while all lunar eclipses happen at the full moon.
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.
What is the moon during a solar eclipe?
Solar eclipses happen during a new moon, which is the first phase of the moon. Solar eclipses occur when the moon passes between the Earth and the Sun, which causes the moon to occult the Sun.
What is the only lunar phases in which a lunar eclipse can occus?
Lunar eclipses can only occur at the full moon.
Can a lunar eclipse occur during the quarter moon phase?
No, a lunar eclipse can only occur during a full moon phase when the Earth passes directly between the Sun and the Moon, casting its shadow on the Moon. In contrast, the quarter moon phase occurs when the Moon is at a 90-degree angle relative to the Earth and the Sun, which does not align for a lunar eclipse to happen.
What occurs during the new moon phase and full moon phase?
Those are the only times when eclipses can occur.

Can a lunar eclipse occur during the quarter moon phase?
No, a lunar eclipse can only occur during a full moon phase when the Earth passes directly between the Sun and the Moon, casting its shadow on the Moon. In contrast, the quarter moon phase occurs when the Moon is at a 90-degree angle relative to the Earth and the Sun, which does not align for a lunar eclipse to happen.
Why don't solar and lunar eclipses occur ever month?
Because the moon phase is irregular
Will new moon phase moon always cause eclipse?
No, a new moon phase does not always cause an eclipse. Solar eclipses occur when the new moon passes between the Earth and the Sun, while lunar eclipses happen when the full moon passes through the Earth's shadow. Eclipses only occur when the alignment of the Sun, Earth, and Moon is just right.
How is the full moon phase different from a lunar eclipse?
Lunar eclipses can only occur during the full moon. In fact, the moon must be almost perfectly full before there can be a lunar eclipse.
What type of lunar eclipse appears to be the least common in north america?
Lunar eclipses can only occur when the moon is in full phase. The least common of these eclipses is a full lunar eclipse.
How are solar eclipses possible?
Solar eclipses occur when the Moon passes between the Sun and Earth, blocking the sunlight and casting a shadow on Earth. This alignment only happens during the New Moon phase when the three celestial bodies are in a straight line. There are different types of solar eclipses, including total, partial, and annular, depending on the alignment and position of the Moon.
What moon phase occurs during solar eclipses?
A no moon! a solar eclipse covers it the moon
