Yes, many people have witnessed a solar or lunar eclipse. Solar eclipses occur when the moon passes between the sun and the Earth, temporarily blocking the sun's light. Lunar eclipses occur when the Earth blocks the sun's light from reaching the moon. Both types of eclipses can be observed by people on Earth under the right conditions.

When is a solar eclipse visible from any place on earth?

A solar eclipse is visible from any place on Earth when it is a total solar eclipse. During a total solar eclipse, the Moon completely covers the Sun, creating a narrow path of darkness on Earth. People within this path will experience the total eclipse, while those outside the path may see a partial eclipse.


What does Eclipse mean in science?

An eclipse is the word used to describe an astronomical phenomenon in which the Sun, Earth and Moon happen to line up sufficiently for the Earth's shadow to fall on the Moon (a lunar eclipse) or the Moon's shadow to fall on the Earth (a solar eclipse). A lunar eclipse can be seen from half the Earth at once - the dark half. A solar eclipse has a more limited viewing area because the Moon is relatively small. Therefore although lunar and solar eclipses are equally frequent, it appears to anyone in a fixed geographical position that lunar eclipses are more frequent.


Was the moon supposed to turn red a couple of nights ago?

The phenomenon you are referring to is called a lunar eclipse, also known as a "blood moon." During a lunar eclipse, the Moon can appear red or coppery due to the Earth's atmosphere scattering sunlight. It does not happen every night, but it occurs a few times a year during certain alignments.


When was first tornado ever seen?

What is seen on earth during a solar eclipse?

A solar eclipse causes a shadow being cast over parts of the earth as the moon crosses the sun. Anyone standing inside the shadow area will see the sky darken, usually causing song birds to fall silent until the sunlight returns.
