Question : The solar eclipse occurs when:
Option 1: the Sun comes between the moon and the Earth
Option 2: the moon moves too far away from the Sun
Option 3: an asteroid comes between the Sun and the moon
Option 4: the moon comes between the Earth and the Sun
Correct Answer: the moon comes between the Earth and the Sun
Solution : The correct option is the moon comes between the Earth and the Sun .
When the Moon comes in front of the Sun, it blocks some or all of the Sun's light from reaching the Earth, and a solar eclipse takes place. When a total solar eclipse occurs, the Sun is entirely obscured by the moon as seen from the Earth. The solar corona, or outer atmosphere of the Sun, comes into view.
