Solar Eclipse

The solar eclipse is a natural phenomenon that occurs when the Moon enters between the Sun and Earth during its orbit movements. The Moon enters between the Sun and the Earth, preventing certain or all of the Sun's lights from reaching the Earth for a short time. In this case, the shadow of the Moon falls on Earth. The solar eclipse occurs in the form of full solar eclipse, partial eclipse, and ringed eclipse. The eclipse is shaped according to the position of the Moon between the Sun and the Earth. The position of the Moon between the Sun and the Earth varies according to the angles of the orbital planes. Therefore, every entry of the Moon between the Sun and the Earth does not cause eclipse. 

What is Solar Eclipse? 

The solar eclipse that occurs when the Moon enters between the Sun and the Earth is seen as a complete, fragmented or ringed solar eclipse.
In full eclipse, the Moon completely covers the sunlight. Full eclipse is the most rare eclipse. For a full solar eclipse, the Moon must be far from the Sun, close to Earth. The Moon's proximity to the Earth causes the Sun to be invisible and the sun's lights are blocked by the Moon. Because the Moon has a smaller mass than the Sun and Earth. The shadow of the Moon in full eclipse creates a line on the Earth with a length of 16.000 km and a width of 160 km. The exact moment of eclipse in solar eclipse is observed between 2 and 4 minutes.
In partial eclipse, the Moon partially covers the Sun. It is observed as a black ring in one corner of the Sun. The most common solar eclipse is partial eclipse. The moon is seen as a black spot on the Sun.
The ring eclipse is observed when the Moon does not completely cover the Sun. The solar eclipse with ring occurs at stages where the Moon is close to the Sun, which is far from Earth.
1 passes between the Moon, the Sun and the Earth 12 times a year. On each of these 12 passes, it does not fall between the Sun and the Earth. Due to the angle difference in the orbital planes, 5 solar eclipses occur at most. Solar eclipses are very short natural events. It is recommended that people who wish to observe this event do not follow the naked eye. 

How does the eclipse occur? 

Solar eclipse occurs when the Moon enters between the Sun and Earth. For the eclipse to occur, the Moon must be in the neo-moon phase and the orbit plane of the Moon coincides with the orbital plane of the Earth around the Sun. The Moon revolves around 12 times in a year around the Earth. However, the angle difference between the Moon and the Earth's orbit planes prevents the Moon from passing precisely in front of the Sun each time. Due to the angular differences, the maximum number of 12 grains that the Moon revolves around the Earth's 5 times per year results in solar eclipse. Without this 5 eclipse, the maximum 2 eclipse occurs as a full solar eclipse.
If the moon's orbit around the Earth and the Earth's orbit around the Sun were in the same plane, a solar eclipse may occur at each transition of the Moon between the Earth and the Sun. However, the angle difference of 5 degrees between the orbital planes causes the maximum 5 eclipses per year. 

Causes Solar Eclipse? 

The moon revolves around 12 times in a year around Earth after orbit movements. During these turns, the Moon enters between the Sun and the Earth, causing a solar eclipse. Because of the angle differences between the orbital planes, the Moon can enter 5 times between the Sun and Earth at most times a year, causing solar eclipse. Moon, Sun and Earth do not always meet in the same plane because of this angle difference. Because of the 5 degree angle difference between the orbital plane of the Moon and the orbital planes of the Earth, the Moon enters between the Sun and the Earth at the maximum 12 of the 5 times per year between the Sun and the Earth. When the Moon does not cause a solar eclipse, the shadow of the Moon passes over or under the Earth. Again due to the angle difference, each retention is of different dimensions. In order for the eclipse to occur, the Moon must be in the new moon phase. The Moon comes to the new moon phase every 29,5 days. In the New Moon phase, the dark side of the Moon faces the Earth. The bright side faces the Sun. Due to the fact that the lunar mass is smaller than the Sun and Earth masses, solar eclipses can be observed in a very small corridor.
