What is a Solar Eclipse?

• A star and the group of planets and other celestial bodies that are held by its gravitational attraction and revolve around it

• When the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun, covering all or part of the Sun; occurs when the Sun, the Moon, and Earth directly line up; lasts for less than 12 minutes.

• A celestial body consisting of a mass of gas held together by its gravity in which nuclear reactions in its interior generate the energy

What is the tilt of the Earth?

• A curved path followed by a satellite as it revolves around an object

• The imaginary line through Earth that extends from the North Pole to the South Pole and is the center of Earth’s rotation

• The slant of Earth’s axis, which is 23.5 degrees from vertical compared to Earth’s orbital plane around the Sun; results in the North Pole always pointing toward the North Star
