Eclipse is an astronomical event wherein the Earth or the moon comes in the way of the Sun’s light. This forms a shadow on Earth or Moon, thereby, forming an eclipse. During a solar eclipse, the Moon comes in the way of the Sun’s light and casts its shadow on Earth. On the other hand, during a lunar eclipse, the Earth comes in the way of the Sun’s light and casts a shadow on the Moon.
