ECLIPSES. 239 on the surface of the earth 170 miles broad. The earth's shadow is towards a million of miles in length, and more than three and a half times as long as the dis- tance from the earth to the moon ; and it is also at the distance of the moon three times as broad as the moon itself. An eclipse ...of the sun can take place only at new moon, when the sun and moon meet in the same part of the heavens, for then only can the moon come between us and the sun ; and an eclipse of the moon can occur only when the sun and moon are in opposite parts of the heavens, or at full moon, for then only can the moon fall into the shadow of the earth.
