When the moon passes between the Sun and Earth and the moon fully or partially blocks the Sun, it is called a solar eclipse.
That's amazing. I saw two solar eclipse before.
Did you see "The Great American Eclipse" which happened this past August 21st?
Yes I did. I watched it with a special reflective mirror. Did you?
I only saw it on the news. Before this event, no solar eclipse had been visible across the entire contiguous United States since 1918.
It was a once in a life time chance to see.  Do you know the next time this event will take place?
I believe the next solar eclipse will not occur until April 8th of 2024.
