wo events in space are described below. Event 1: The moon travels between the sun and Earth and prevents the sunlight from reaching Earth during daytime. Event 2: The moon moves into the shadow of Earth at night, and this makes it difficult to see the moon from Earth. Which event or events represent(s) a solar eclipse on Earth

The event that it best describes is Event 1. A solar eclipse occurs when the moon gets between the sun and Earth and blocks the sunlight from reaching Earth's surface during daytime, thus casting a shadow over Earth. This can be a beautiful sight also when you will view it in your bare eyes.

The answer is Event 1. A solar eclipse occurs when the moon gets between the sun and Earth and blocks the sunlight from reaching Earth's surface during daytime, thus casting a shadow over Earth. A lunar eclipse as represented by Event 2 happens when the moon passes into the shadow of Earth at night and we can see the moon darken.
