Summary
| Description |
English:
A diagram illustrating the difference between a full moon and a lunar eclipse, and the difference between a new moon and a solar eclipse. This is caused by the 5° incline of the moon's orbital plane around earth, meaning that an eclipse can only happen when the moon is nearly in line with the nodal line.
