A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between the Earth and Sun and the Moon's shadow crosses the Earth, solar eclipses can be total, partial, or annular. A total eclipse is when the Moon obscures the Sun entirely. A partial eclipse is when the Moon only covers a portion of the Sun. Because the Moon's orbit about the Earth is not perfectly circular, sometimes it is slightly farther away from the Earth. If a solar eclipse occurs when the Moon is at the far point in its orbit, the Moon will not cover the Sun entirely. A thin ring, or annulus, of sunlight will be visible around the Moon. This kind of eclipse is called an annular eclipse.
A lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth passes between the Moon and Sun. Lunar eclipses are either total or partial, depending upon whether the Moon moves completely into the Earth's shadow or not.
