A solar eclipse is when the Moon passes in front of the Sun. In contrast, a lunar eclipse is when the Sun passes in front of the Moon!
I think a solar eclipse is when anything passes in front of the sun, ie when the sun is eclipsed. We just don't often see it from the moon
TIL. Nature is amazing.
I was told there would be a big prism and a rainbow, wtf
Did you mean to say a lunar eclipse?
A lunar eclipse here on Earth is a solar eclipse when viewed from the Moon. :)
You know what, that’s a really good point
This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.
