A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes in front of the Sun and obscures it totally or partially. This configuration can only occur at New Moon, when the Sun and Moon are in conjunction, as seen from Earth.
There are four types of solar eclipses:

    * A total eclipse occurs when the Sun is completely obscured by the Moon. 
    * An annular eclipse occurs when the Sun and Moon are exactly in line, but the apparent size of the Moon is smaller than that of the Sun.
    * A hybrid eclipse is intermediate between a total and annular eclipse. At some points on the Earth it is visible as a total eclipse.
    * A partial eclipse occurs when the Sun and Moon are not exactly in line, and the Moon only partially obscures the Sun.
