Solar Eclipse and Lunar Eclipse

A Solar Eclipse or a Lunar Eclipse happen when the Sun, Earth, Moon, and the lunar nodes line up. This happens twice a year in what is known as an eclipse season. Thanks for watching!

Literally the ONLY video that properly visualized solar and lunar eclipses to make me understand what is happening

You have made many people sleep peacefully after years of restless nights thinking about this.

Space is truly beautiful!!

By far the best explanation of solar and lunar eclipses. Easy to understand animations. It’s extremely difficult to make something look simple. And you nailed it. Thanks a lot man.

After watching about 15 videos on eclipse, finally I got my answer through your video..

While everyone else showed earth moving around it's orbit, you showed it on a plane which cleared my doubt about the nodal points.

Thanks a lot mate 👍 hope I'll be off your help some day.

Sir I had this question since High School (more than 20 years ago) and didn't bothered me enough to search for it on Google, but I'm greatly surprised you made a video about it and finally gave me the solution why we don't get Eclipses each month. Thank you! 👏👏👏

You have no idea how long I have been searching for a video that explains this for my 5th grade kiddies! Thanks so much, it really does a great job of visually explaining why there arent eclipses twice a month!
