However, even when The key to understanding eclipses is to realize that the orbit of the moon around the earth is not in the same plane as the orbit of the earth around the sun (SF Fig Throughout history, solar eclipses have inspired awe and fear. Totality, that in ancient times the solar eclipse was generally explained in one of four ways. One hundred years ago this week, a total solar eclipse briefly blotted out the sun and gave humanity a new understanding of the universe.
