Answer: there is no shadow on the Moon with the solar eclipse.

Explanation: When the Moon passes between the Earth and the Sun, it casts a moving shadow on the Earth's surface, known as a solar eclipse. When the Earth passes between the Sun and the Moon, a lunar eclipse occurs, creating a shadow on the Moon.
