An '''eclipse''' is the partial or total obscuration of the Sun or Moon.  
Un '''eclipse''' es el oscurecimiento parcial o total del Sol o la Luna.  


During a '''solar eclipse''', the Moon is positioned directly between the Earth and the Sun. The Moon is smaller than the Sun, but because it is closer to us it appears to be about the same size as the sun and therefore blocks the Sun’s light from our view.
