    A total eclipse is a celestial event that occurs when one heavenly body such as a moon or planet completely moves into the shadow of another heavenly body - in relation to an observer's viewpoint. For example, in a total solar eclipse, the moon completely blocks the sun, and in a total lunar eclipse, the moon moves into the Earth's shadow, resulting in the sun, Earth, and moon forming a straight line.

Examples of total eclipse in a Sentence

    Annular eclipses are similar to total eclipses in that the moon, Earth and sun are aligned so that the moon moves directly in front of the Sun as viewed from Earth, but a total eclipse does not happen, that is the moon does not completely block out the visible disk of the sun because the moon is farther away and so its apparent size in the sky is [ slightly ] smaller than the sun. This means that a tiny ring of annulus of the solar disk is visible around the moon.

  4. The Hays ':

    Jung said. In Wyoming where it’s dry and in the peak of fire season, Anna Wilcox said campfires will be banned. People should be aware that leaving a car on the side of the road or throwing a cigarette butt out a window could start a fire, Anna Wilcox added. Anna Wilcox also said people could need to adjust to Casper’s high elevation and should keep an eye out for altitude sickness symptoms. Places like Casper and Hopkinsville may not have chosen to be in the path of totality, but they are still looking forward to showing off their communities and experiencing a total eclipse. There’s no reason why we ca n’t all have fun doing it together, the big thing here for us... is that when that moment of totality comes, that we can all experience it together.

  5. Joe Rao:
