Did You Know?

A total solar eclipse happens when the Moon perfectly aligns with the Sun, blocking its light for a short time. These rare events occur roughly every 18 months, though they aren’t visible from every location. Long ago, people might have thought eclipses were caused by mischievous gods or angry spirits. Today, we appreciate their beauty and marvel at the Moon’s ability to create such a stunning natural show.
