Figure 2b. Alignment of Sun, Earth, and Moon (3) What type of eclipse will occur when the earth is between the Sun and the Moon and the Moon is in the Earth's shadow? (4) What phase of the Moon does this eclipes take place? (5) Which letter in both figures represent umbra?penumbra? (6) When does an eclipse take place? (7) Is it possible for a solar or lunar eclipse to happen every month? Explain your answer.

6.)An eclipse takes place when the Alignment of the Sun, Moon and Earth forms in a Straight line. a Lunar Eclipse occurs when the earth goes in between the Sun and the moon, with the moon hidden in the Earth's Shadow. a Solar Eclipse Occurs when the Moon goes between the Earth and Sun, Covering the sunlight and creating a huge shadow on the earth.

7.)the orbit of the moon is tilted relative to the orbit of the Earth around the sun, so the moon often passes below or above Earth. At those times, it does not cross the line between the sun and the Earth, and therefore does not create a solar eclipse. There are just two times a year in the Earth's orbit when there is a possibility of a total solar eclipse.
