Etymology: [ i-'klips ] (noun.) 13th century. From Latin eclīpsis, from Ancient Greek ἔκλειψις (ekleipsis, “eclipse”), from ἐκλείπω (ekleipō, “I abandon”), from ἐκ (ek, “out”) and λείπω (leipō, “I leave behind”).
A seasonal state of plumage in some birds, notably ducks, adopted temporarily after the breeding season and characterised by a dull and scruffy appearance, Of astronomical bodies, to cause an eclipse, An astronomical alignment in which a planetary object (for example, the Moon) comes between the sun and another planetary object (for example, the Earth), resulting in a shadow being cast by the middle object onto the other object, To overshadow; to be better or more noticeable than, To suffer an eclipse, one celestial body obscures another cause an eclipse of (a celestial body) by intervention; "The Sun eclipses the moon today"; "Planets and stars often are occulted by other celestial bodies", To obscure, darken, or extinguish the beauty, luster, honor, etc, cause an eclipse of;

lunar eclipses occur when the Sun is directly on the opposite side of the Earth to the Moon, causing the Earth's shadow to be projected onto the Moon The tilt of the Moon's orbit ensures that there can be no more than seven eclipses per year (b) Like a kind of cinema for goblins They particularly like the showiness of a good total solar eclipse, The obscuration of a planet or star by the moon or a planet, though of the nature of an eclipse, is called an occultation, Of atronomical bodies, to cause an eclipse, An interception or obscuration of the light of the sun, moon, or other luminous body, by the intervention of some other body, either between it and the eye, or between the luminous body and that illuminated by it, A lunar eclipse is caused by the moon passing through the earth's shadow;

gloom; darkness, The hiding or blocking of one celestial object from another, The complete or partial blocking of one celestial body by another An example is when the moon travels between the Sun and the Earth, which is called the solar eclipse, The cutting off of light from one celestial body by another, The obscuring of one celestial body by another, The obscuring of one celestial body by another (1) A Solar Eclipse occurs when the Moon comes between the Earth and the Sun In a total eclipse, the solar disk is completely obscured; in a partial eclipse the solar disk is only partly obscured An annular eclipse occurs when the Moon is near its apogee and the apparent diameter of the Moon is less than that of the Sun so that the Sun is never completely obscured "First and last contacts" are defined as the times of tangency of the solar and lunar disks A central eclipse (which can be total or annular) has two additional times of tangency: "second contact," when maximum eclipse begins, and "third contact," when it ends The last glimpses of the Sun through the lunar valleys, just before second contact, are known as Baily's beads (2) A lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon enters the shadow cast by the Earth (3) Spacecraft in the Earth's shadow are said to be in eclipse, An eclipse occurs when one celestial body passes in front of another, blocking the light from the latter Typically the term "eclipse" is applied only situations involving a planet, its satellites and the Sun A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between the Earth and Sun, casting its shadow on Earth A lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth passes between the Sun and Moon, casting its shadow on the Moon Due to the orbital geometry, these eclipses do not occur every month Eclipses also occur when the Moon passes in front of a star or planet, but in this case the eclipse is more commonly known as an occultation, cause an eclipse of; of celestial bodies; "The moon eclipsed the sun", cause an eclipse of (a celestial body) by intervention; "The Sun eclipses the moon today"; "Planets and stars often are occulted by other celestial bodies", An eclipse of the sun is an occasion when the moon is between the earth and the sun, so that for a short time you cannot see part or all of the sun. An eclipse of the moon is an occasion when the earth is between the sun and the moon, so that for a short time you cannot see part or all of the moon. an eclipse of the sun. the total lunar eclipse, obscuring of one celestial body by another (i.e. sun, moon, etc.); any obscuration of light, If one thing is eclipsed by a second thing that is bigger, newer, or more important than it, the first thing is no longer noticed because the second thing gets all the attention. The gramophone had been eclipsed by new technology such as the compact disc = overshadow. The passage of all or part of one celestial body into the shadow of another, the eclipsing body. Observers on Earth experience two major types lunar eclipses and solar eclipses each of which involves the Sun and the Moon. The type observed depends on whether Earth is the eclipsing body or the body in shadow. In a lunar eclipse the orbit of the Moon carries it through Earth's shadow. Observers see the full Moon dim considerably, but it remains faintly visible. In a solar eclipse the Moon is the eclipsing body, passing between Earth and the Sun while casting a traveling shadow across Earth's lighted surface. Observers along the shadow's path see a total or partial obscuring of the Sun's disk by the Moon's silhouette. The shadow cast by the eclipsing body consists of the central umbra, into which no direct sunlight penetrates (total eclipse), and the encircling penumbra, reached by light from only part of the Sun's disk (partial eclipse). Solar eclipses visible from different parts of Earth occur two to five times a year; one total solar eclipse occurs in most years. When Earth is closest to the Sun and the Moon farthest from Earth, the Moon's silhouette may fall entirely within the Sun's disk, with a ring of the disk visible around it (annular eclipse). Lunar eclipses occur twice in most years. Other kinds of eclipses include those of the Sun by Mercury or Venus (transits), of distant stars by planets or planetary satellites (occultations), and of stars by orbiting companion stars (see eclipsing variable star).
