Original Note:
A solar eclipse happens when the moon passes between the Earth and the sun. This causes the Moon’s shadow to be cast upon the Earth. https://science.nasa.gov/eclipses/types/ The Moon orbits Earth the same direction that Earth rotates when viewed from above. The Moon actually moves west to east through our POV. https://www.astronomy.com/science/since-the-sun-and-moon-move-from-east-to-west-why-did-the-eclipse-move-from-west-to-east/
