An eclipse is a celestial event that occurs when one astronomical object, such as the Moon or the Earth, passes into the shadow of another object. A solar eclipse happens when the Moon comes between the Sun and Earth, blocking sunlight from reaching certain areas on Earth. A lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth is between the Sun and the Moon, causing Earth's shadow to fall on the Moon.
