Moreover, because of the solar eclipse and lunar eclipse, the shape and shadows of the sun and the moon can be different. A solar eclipse occurs when the moon lies between the sun and the earth. The moon either covers the sun completely or covers it partially. Thus, four kinds of solar eclipses happen on this day.

Total Solar Eclipse: When the whole moon comes before the sun and only the corona is visible as a faint light.

Annular Solar Eclipse: It happens when the sun and the moon are in line but the moon covers it in such a way that only a small dark circle in the middle is visible.

Hybrid Solar Eclipse: This eclipse will happen when the sun and moon are in one line, but it looks like an annular as well as a total solar eclipse.

Partial Solar eclipse: When the sun is covered only partially.
