Question

Write a summary about the relative positions of the sun, earth and moon throughout the lunar cycle. Your summary must should be a minimum of 5 sentences.

Answer 1

The amount of Moon we see changes over the month — lunar phases — because the Moon orbits Earth and Earth orbits the Sun. Everything is moving. During a lunar eclipse, Earth comes between the Sun and the Moon, blocking the sunlight falling on the Moon. Earth's shadow covers all or part of the lunar surface.
