Eclipses and Moon Phases Activity Student sample of a modeled eclipse. This lesson highlighted eclipses and lunar phases. If you had to teach another person about the difference between the two events, how would you explain it

Respuesta :

An eclipse is an event in which the sun or moon is blocked from view due to the presence of another celestial body, whereas lunar phases are caused by the reflection of the sunlight.

What is an eclipse?

An eclipse is an astronomical phenomenon where one celestial body (e.g., sun, moon) cannot be observed because another is interposed between the Earth and the first one.

Eclipses can be divided into moon eclipses (we cannot see the moon) and sun eclipses (we cannot see the sun).

On the other hand, moon phases occur due to how sunlight reflects the near side of the Moon.  

Moon phases can be divided into:

  • New Moon
  • First Quarter
  • Third Quarter
  • Full Moon

In conclusion, an eclipse is an event in which the sun or moon is blocked from view due to the presence of another celestial body, whereas lunar phases are caused by the reflection of the sunlight.
