Let's Talk About Eclipses (Just for Fun)
Eclipses are like nature's reality TV shows. You never know when they're going to happen, but when they do, everyone's glued to the screen (or, in this case, the sky). There are two main types: solar and lunar.
Tip: Write down what you learned.
- Solar eclipses are when the Moon gets between the Sun and Earth, blocking the Sun's light. Imagine a cosmic game of peek-a-boo.
- Lunar eclipses are when the Earth gets between the Sun and Moon, casting a shadow on the Moon. It's like a cosmic horror movie, but without the scary monsters (usually).
How to Watch an Eclipse (Safely)

QuickTip: Compare this post with what you already know.
