eclipses

Definition von eclipses im Englisch Englisch wörterbuch: the full or partial blocking of the appearance of a luminary by a luminary as seen from the Earth; These are of two kinds: solar and lunar (sun or moon)
eclipse: Of astronomical bodies, to cause an eclipse
The Moon eclipsed the Sun.
eclipse: A seasonal state of plumage in some birds, notably ducks, adopted temporarily after the breeding season and characterised by a dull and scruffy appearance
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
lunar eclipses: plural form of lunar eclipse
solar eclipses: plural form of solar eclipse
eclipse: the obstruction of a heavenly body by its entering into the shadow of another body
eclipse: {n} an obscuration of a luminary, darkness
eclipse: {v} to darken, cloud, put out, disgrace
eclipse: One one body covers another or casts its shadow on it During an eclipse of the sun (upper animation), the moon covers the sun
eclipse: To overshadow; to be better or more noticeable than
eclipse: {f} cause to undergo an eclipse; outshine, surpass, outdo
eclipse: The total or partial obscuring of one celestial body by another The events that most affect satellites are eclipses of the Sun by the Earth or the Moon, which deprive the satellite of its usual source of power (solar energy) and cause it to cool down rapidly because it is no longer heated by the Sun The satellite is designed to cope with such extreme events Normally, there is no effect on the communications services provided by the satellite during eclipse
eclipse: {i} obscuring of one celestial body by another (i.e. sun, moon, etc.); any obscuration of light
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"
eclipse: The occurrence of one celestial body's shadow temporarily falling on another body
eclipse: cause an eclipse of; of celestial bodies; "The moon eclipsed the sun
eclipse: When one body passes through the shadow of another, causing one of the planets to darken or disappear Indicates great changes for the next 6 to 12 months Comes in 2 types, solar and lunar See also Eclipses
eclipse: 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
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
eclipse: The obscuring of one celestial body by another
eclipse: The loss, usually temporary or partial, of light, brilliancy, luster, honor, consciousness, etc
eclipse: The obscuring of one celestial body by another See lunar eclipse or solar eclipse
eclipse: The blocking of all or part of the light from one object by another For example, a "lunar eclipse'' occurs when the Earth's shadow falls on the Moon, preventing sunlight from illuminating all of its surface A "solar eclipse'' occurs when the Moon passes directly between us and the Sun, blocking part or all of its light from reaching us Lunar eclipses can occur only when the Moon is on the opposite side of the Earth from the Sun (at Full Moon), while solar eclipses can happen only at New Moon [See phases of the Moon]
eclipse: To obscure, darken, or extinguish the beauty, luster, honor, etc

eclipse: The cutting off of light from one celestial body by another
eclipse: The blocking of one astronomical body by another as seen from Earth The most common of these events are the Solar and Lunar eclipses Spherical Aberration: A blurring of the image caused by the inability of a spherical mirror to focus all light from infinity to one focal point Light rays from the edge of the spherical mirror focus to different points than those from the centre
eclipse: A lunar eclipse is caused by the moon passing through the earth's shadow; a solar eclipse, by the moon coming between the sun and the observer
eclipse: The eclipse of a small portion of the sun by Mercury or Venus is called a transit of the planet
eclipse: To cause the obscuration of; to darken or hide; said of a heavenly body; as, the moon eclipses the sun
eclipse: 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
eclipse: 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
eclipse: cause an eclipse of; of celestial bodies; "The moon eclipsed the sun"
eclipse: The hiding or blocking of one celestial object from another
eclipse: 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). See also Baily's beads
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
eclipse: To suffer an eclipse
eclipse: exceed in importance; outweigh; "This problem overshadows our lives right now"
eclipse: The partial or total apparent darkening of the sun when the moon comes between the sun and the Earth (solar eclipse), or the darkening of the moon when the full moon is in the Earth's shadow (lunar eclipse)
eclipse: The total or partial blocking of one celestial body by another
eclipse: the alignment of celestial bodies so that one is obscured, either partially or totally, by the other
eclipse: A chance alignment between the Sun, or any other celestial object, and two other celestial objects in which one body blocks the light of the Sun, or other body, from the other In effect, the outer object moves through the shadow of the inner object
eclipse: The cutting off of all or part of the light of one body by another; in planetary science, the passing of one body into the shadow of another
eclipse: of; to sully; to cloud; to throw into the shade by surpassing
eclipse: The partial or total obscuration of a bright object by a shadow A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between the Earth and the Sun, blocking out the light from the Sun A lunar eclipse occurs when a the Earth passes between the Sun and the Moon, and the Earth's shadow obscures the full Moon
eclipse: When one heavenly body obscures another for a short period of time, creating a temporary veil or shadow For example, a Solar (Sun) eclipse is when the Moon passes between the Earth and the Sun, blotting out some or all of the Sun's light
eclipse: Of atronomical bodies, to cause an eclipse
eclipse: (a) When one body moves between an observer and the body being observed, obscuring the view Solar eclipses occur when the Moon moves between the Sun and the Earth; 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
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
eclipse: 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"
eclipse: Eclipses occur when the Sun, Moon, and Earth precisely line up The Moon, in its orbit around the Earth, is inclined at about 5 degrees to the ecliptic (the plane at which the Earth orbits the Sun) Therefore the Moon spends most of its time above or below the ecliptic plane The Sun must be at a precise location too Since the Sun travels an apparent path around the celestial sphere once per year, eclipses are possible only at roughly six-month intervals
