Answer:

There are three main types of solar eclipses:

Total solar eclipse: A total solar eclipse is visible from a small area on Earth. ...

Partial solar eclipse: This happens when the Sun, Moon and Earth are not exactly aligned. ...

Annular (an-yə-lər) solar eclipse: An annular eclipse happens when the Moon is farthest from Earth.

There are three types of lunar eclipses: total, partial and penumbral. Total lunar eclipses are when the Moon passes through Earth's umbral shadow -giving it that red-orange tone. The red-orange glow is caused by the umbral shadow. This is the inner darkest part of the shadow.
