Shadows are made by blocking light. Light rays travel from a source in straight lines. If an opaque (solid) object gets in the way, it stops light rays from traveling through it. This results in an area of darkness appearing behind the object.

Like all worlds orbiting a sun, Earth casts a shadow. Earth's shadow extends about 870,000 miles (1.4 million km) into space. You might not realize it, but, from Earth's surface, you can see the shadow.
