How are the sun, Earth, and moon aligned during a lunar eclipse? (will give brainliest)
A: In a straight line with the moon between Earth and the sun
B: In a straight line with Earth between the sun and the moon
C: With the sun and the moon at right angles to each other in relation to Earth
D: With the sun and Earth at right angles to each other in relation to the moon
A lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes directly behind the Earth into its umbra (shadow). This can occur only when the Sun, Earth, and Moon are aligned exactly with the Earth in the middle.
