'Solar eclipse' is a form of eclipse when the Moon passes through the middle of the Earth and the Sun, and when the Sun is seen from Earth, the Sun is covered in full or partially by the moon. From the point of view of the Sun, when the moon approaches between the Sun and the Earth, the sun's illumination behind the moon is covered for a while, the same phenomenon is called the solar eclipse
There are three types of solar eclipse that are called the complete solar eclipse, partial solar eclipse and the circular eclipse:The complete solar eclipse occurs at the time when the Moon approaches the Earth with a lot of distance between the Earth and the Sun, and the Moon completely takes the Earth into its shadow area.In the partial solar eclipse, when the moon came between the sun and the earth in such a way that only a part of the sun is not visible from the earth, that is, Chandama can only take only part of the sun into its shadow.When the Moon is very close to the Earth in the solar eclipse, the moon and the Sun come between the Earth, that is, the moon covers the sun in such a way that only the central part of the Sun comes in the shadow area.
The solar eclipse always happens to the new moon. When the Moon is the minimum and the Sun is full and full of light. The angular diameter of the sun and the moon are the same on the day of the solar eclipse. For this reason, the moon only takes the sun in its shadow for a few minutes. The area covered by the solar eclipse is called the full shadow area.
