A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon moves between the Earth and the Sun, casting a shadow on Earth and blocking out the Sun’s light.
In a total solar eclipse, the Sun is completely obscured, while in a partial eclipse, only a part of the Sun is covered. An annular eclipse occurs when the Moon is too far from Earth to completely cover the Sun, leaving a ring of sunlight visible.
