Solar Eclipse Trivia Quiz Questions and Answers

Let’s start the quiz

Solar eclipse, when the moon comes between the Earth and the Sun, then the sunlight does not reach the Earth and some parts of the Earth's surface cover darken during the day. This position is called a solar eclipse. If the moon were orbiting a fixed circular orbit and the same orbital plane, every eclipse would have a solar eclipse. A solar eclipse occurs only when the moon is near the orbital plane of the Earth on Amavasya. It is important that the Moon revolves around the Earth in an elliptical orbit, so its distance from the Earth changes. This is the reason the state of the full solar eclipse, partial solar eclipse, and annular eclipse are formed. Let's take an awesome trivia quiz about Solar Eclipse.
