Solar Eclipse

  • Earth gets light from sunlight, and it makes day happened.

  • When the moon moves between sun and the earth, Solar Eclipse is happened.

  • Because the sunlight is been covered by the moon, then some of places is dark

Types of Solar Eclipse

1. Total Solar Eclipse

  • A total solar eclipse is only visible from a small area on Earth. 

  • For a total eclipse to take place, the sun, moon and Earth must be in a direct line.

  • The sky becomes very dark, as if it were night.

Types of Solar Eclipse

2. Partial Solar Eclipse

  • This happens when the sun, moon and Earth are not exactly lined up.
