Answer:

Solar eclipses happen once every 18 months. Unlike lunar eclipses, solar eclipses only last for a few minutes. NEVER look directly at the sun: It can permanently damage your eyes! You must use proper safety equipment to look at any type of solar eclipse

Answer:

Eclipses occur during the new Moon phase of the Moon's cycle when it passes between the Earth and the Sun.
