How is it that the sun or moon can be hidden? The Earth is a planet which orbits around the, a journey that takes a year. The orbits around the Earth, a trip that takes about a month. An eclipse of the sun, or solar eclipse, occurs when the is aligned exactly between the Earth and the. Looking up from a part of the Earth that's in the 's shadow, you can see the vanish in the middle of the day! The 's orbit around the Earth is tilted about 5. degrees from the orbit of the Earth around the. As a result of this tilt, a solar eclipse occurs somewhere on the Earth about two to five times a year. A lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth is aligned exactly between the and the, so that the moon falls within the Earth's shadow and thus vanishes from sight. Lunar eclipses are more rare than solar eclipses, typically occurring three times a year or less. This Papercraft model will let you see for yourself how eclipses work. together.

The 's shadow falls on the Earth, and from within that shadow, the appears to vanish in the middle of the day. There are three types of solar eclipse. During a "total eclipse," the 's disk is completely hidden by the. An "annular eclipse" occurs when the is farther enough from the Earth that the is not completely hidden, and the outer edge of the 's disk is visible as a ring, or "annulus." When the covers only part of the 's disk, it is called a "partial eclipse." Solar eclipses occur two to five times per year somewhere on the Earth. (During a total eclipse, the 's outer atmosphere, called the "corona," is visible around the.) [ during a partial solar eclipse] Lunar eclipse [Total lunar eclipse] Total lunar eclipse [Partial lunar eclipse] Earth Earth [ during a total lunar eclipse] Partial lunar eclipse A lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth is aligned exactly between the and the, so that the moon falls within the Earth's shadow and thus vanishes from sight. There are two types of lunar eclipse. A "total eclipse" occurs when the falls completely within the Earth's shadow. A "partial eclipse" occurs when only part of the falls within the Earth's shadow. Lunar eclipses occur up to three times a year, but some years may not occur at all. [ during a partial lunar eclipse] New moon Half moon New moon Earth Full moon Half moon A "new " occurs when the is between the Earth and the. In this position, the surface of the seen from the Earth is not lit by the 's light, and thus is not visible. A new occurs about once a month.
