  18. Solar Eclipse 1. Moon passes between sun and Earth (in a straight line) Eclipses

  19. Solar Eclipse 2. Sun looks like a dark circle with a halo (moon’s shadow) Eclipses

  20. Solar Eclipse 3. Partial eclipse- people in moon’s outer shadow cast onto earth see this Eclipses

  22. Why are solar eclipses only visible in some parts of the world?

  23. Lunar Eclipse 1. Moon moves into Earth’s shadow (Earth between moon and sun) Eclipses

  24. Lunar Eclipse 2. Moon turns red because sun’s rays bend around Earth to reach moon Eclipses
