Eclipse, in astronomy, is complete or partial obscuring of a celestial body by another. An eclipse occurs when three celestial objects become aligned.

From the perspective of a person on Earth, the Sun is eclipsed when the Moon comes between it and Earth, and the Moon is eclipsed when it moves into the shadow of Earth cast by the Sun. Eclipses of natural satellites (moons) or of spacecraft orbiting or flying past a planet occur as the bodies move into the planet’s shadow. The two component stars of an eclipsing binary star move around each other in such a way that their orbital plane passes through or very near Earth, and each star periodically eclipses the other as seen from Earth.

I witnessed a full solar eclipse in 1999, in Romania, on the beach.

It was breathtaking and thrilling. The hue of the water during the whole eclipse remained with me—light blue like turquoise, with pink sparkles, the same color as the sky. There was no discernible separation between the water and the sky. Like glancing into the Big Blue.
