For everyone who was forced to watch this, here's what you need to know:
1: eclipse means the obscuring of the light from one celestial body
2: In a solar eclipse, the sun gets darker, and in a lunar eclipse, the moon gets darker
3: In a solar eclipse, the moon is blocking out light from the sun and casts a shadow on the earth
4: In a lunar eclipse, the earth blocks out the light from the sun, so earths shadow is cast on the moon
5: The moon is a full moon during a lunar eclipse, and a new moon during a solar eclipse
6: We don't always see a lunar eclipse whenever there is a full moon because the moon orbits the earth at an angle, meaning that the sun can't cast a shadow on the earth onto the moon because they're not in a straight line
Ty you actually helped me get an 100 on my quiz :D
DANG! This helped me alot! Thanks dude.

I should read this during a quiz
Edit: darn i cant copy it lol
Thanks so much

Julissa Ramirez lmao Jesus.
Isabella Zimmer why you gotta be so toxic, if your gonna get mad over some dam comment then don’t scroll through 🤦♂️
@Isabella Zimmer This is for learning purposes? Jesus christ.
@Isabella Zimmer calm down, take some deep breaths
dam thx I'm going to skip this video. You perfectly explained this video in 2 sec thx
Online schooling hasn’t helped me like any educational videos that aren’t game theory
mc same bro why cant every science class be a game theory episode
Children calm down this helps
Instead of a school bell it would be the intro music.
Update I have found one
Teacher made us watch the simpsons
Bro teacher just made us watch this in online schooling😤
same
yeah
storm plush productions me too
Me too

Aug. 11, 1999 - i will always remember the full solar eclipse above my head...Every birds stopped singing at once. People got completely euphoric...really weird and exciting. Oh, and when the eclipse is total, you can remove the glasses 8)
I bet you were glad when you found there is another one on 20th March 2015.. 90% darkness in UK! I'm really excited
Wendy Ydnew thank you. you saved my googling the date of it :P
Wendy Ydnew ME TOO!
Wendy Ydnew
nop ! cause e-penser and i are french so no full solar eclipse for us :'(
Pas mal la vidéo merci d'avoir fait partagé Bruce! !!
I saw my first lunar eclipse last year when I was visiting my aunt at a apartment and it was amazing. I also saw the solar eclipse at school with solar glasses and to be honest I prefer the lunar eclipse since I can look directly at it with my eyes.
1:59 when ur trying to choose between sleeping or eating
Then you decide to do both
This is a great video. I just taught about eclipses to my grade sixes as part of our space unit. I put your video up on our class newsfeed to reinforce the concepts. I think it will really help them, as I remember getting the two mixed up a lot (before I had to teach them :).
whos here from Online School?
Me this is annoying

I am very happy to see this. I wanted to start a channel like this but I've been pulled to do other things. I wish you the best. Keep teaching.
Who else watched this from the thing, “Watch It!”
me
Yessir
yes
Yes
Me oml
love the way you have expressed ...... it is marked in my memory forever ❤
This was a really well put together video! I was able to understand everything you said. Keep up the good videos :)
OMG. Thank you so much! I have a science test soon, and our teacher gave us barely any revision material. THANK YOU SO MUCH! I have subscribed and will surely be watching again
That was really clear and your enthusiasm is intense. Now do the umbras.
I had a huge grin when I searched for a random question on youtube and a Physics Girl video was the top result 😁
:D Love these videos! Thanks for the upload
You will never know how i got this many likes buahahahahaha!
ur not alone dude

Memes for all the kids who are watching this for online school
ANGEL COOLEY-KNOTTS he has a fortnite PFP lol
@WYATT WOODARD Thats not even Fortnite my guy, thats JoJo,
These videos that we’re getting forced to watch for online schooling really stink
thank you for this!! i have my science final tomorrow and this just taught me the difference!
We watched you videos in class and they were very helpful!! You remind me of my favorite teacher Mr. Neidow, you two act the exact same!!
Good video! I remember being confused about a lunar eclipse.
thank you for the help your vid is still being used in schools in 2021
LOVE your videos...but I learned the difference between the lunar and solar eclipse way back around the second grade of elementary school...from my paternal grandfather...I guess there are always those who have no idea about things though. Interesting that my high school never taught physics...nor did they do much math beyond geometry...had to learn that all later in night school courses...then on to college...
Thx! This helped me a lot I have a science final exam on this tomorrow!! :)
This is the best video explaining for these phenomenons !
my favorite factoid is that the sun is about 400 times farther away than the moon and about 400 times larger in diameter, so the two are relatively the 'same size' and the moon (in a solar eclipse) perfectly covers the sun.
Mike Meyer solar and lunar eclipses can happen on any planet with moons
Nice very informative, and the way you presenting, superbbbbbbb
I really like this channel :) I hope you post often.
Thank you so much!
You helped me with last minute school assessment
I hope my teacher likes it
That certainly clears things up. Thanks!
Great video explanation!
Great vid that could brighten your day (if the moon isn't between your eyes and your screen)
if the moon was between your eyes and the screen then you'd be dead
Great Explanation!
Thank you so much awesome video :-)
It helped a lot! Thank you!
"Sorry" eyes were amazing *-*
Seems like an amazing coincidence that the moon happens to be the right size and distance to totally eclipse the sun but not block out the corona. I don't think this happens for any of the other planets in our system.
But, but, but… why is the moon red during a lunar eclipse?!
I know the answer, I just thought I'd try and spark an interesting comment answer :)
It's on its period ?
Refraction from the earths atmosphere disperses the sunlight and the red bit hits the moon.
Wardog11111
It's not really due to refraction from the earths atmosphere en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rayleigh_scattering
Mostafa Elkady are u fucking insane man ? i almost died laughing with your comment
Because its called the blood moon
The Lunar eclipse cause slightly different than 6 Solar months because The Moon is twirling around the Earth. That causes the moon to go in the shadow late. Also, the distance between the Sun and the Earth isn't constant. That also has effects on the Lunar Eclipse.
i can not thank you enough!!! i had a quiz on this and i thought i was going to fail the test but this helped me sooo much
Apocalypse: MSE.
how can apocalypse happen
how can sun move between earth and moon
come on tell me
@sre family
it bully's its way in :-)
This video helped me understand thanks so much 👍🙏😎
We drove down to my sister's place in Oregon to see the 2017 eclipse. It was sooo cool! I remember the crows started roosting at the beginning of the eclipse and were quiet during it, then got really noisy afterwards like they felt they were tricked. 😂
Who's watching this bc there's an eclipse today in North America?😂🖐
Nice video, I subscribed
Loved it!!!
Gabriela Piloni Pires You are one of the few females (in the world) that are really interested in Physics!!! Very well!!!
"Parabéns!"
Ty soo much u earned a sub👍👍
You are awesome !!!! Thanks a ton.
Thank you i needed to get my home work done and this helped
Why didn't my class text book just say this? lol
🤔🤒🤒🤓😃
Good job.

Well you see, we must fill the paragraphs to full capacity to cause as much confusion as possible, leading to students to fail their exams, then the class, and then the second wave of money rolls in.
*_-laughs-_*
*_coughs_* - Er, sorry, I honestly, _genuinely_ feel terrible that students must pay to retake their classes
really Informative
Wow, loved the way she explained. 😁
You are hilarious. "If you are on the moon during a Lunar eclipse, it would be a Solar eclipse to you."... ""wot??!!" 😄 🤣 😂!
The part about the tides confused me a bit. From what I know maximum tides are caused by both the sun and the moon being in line with earth, so the gravity of both bodies work together. The video makes it sound like this only happens during lunar eclipses, but the same would be true during solar eclipses, as the bodies are all aligned again... right?
Also, the audio clip in the background from the first 20 seconds is the same clip that RoosterTeeth uses on the end screen for their Lets Play's. Yay for royalty free music libraries! (I assume)
A Lunar eclipse has the Sun&Moon lined up with the earth in the middle place (SEM) while a Solar eclipse has them lined up both on the Suns side of the Earth(SME), I assume that would make some difference and could have one of these events producing higher tides than the other. But i'm not reliable enough to factcheck :p
I thought about that as well, and it makes sense that they would. If you look up how this works though, it turns out being on opposite sides works as well. Both are pulling the oceans in their own direction, which pulls water from areas not in line with them, adding water to both sides... it's hard to describe, when you see it visually it makes way more sense. Also, this video had a great chance to introduce the word Syzygy, which is when 3 celestial bodies line up, and a great scrabble word!
Tyler Gunderson Yeah that is true. so I guess both would cause the tides
0:35 The sun gets darker from our perspective. The sun itself doesn't get darker. There's key difference. It's like saying that the sun gets darker because it's nighttime and it gets brighter because it's daytime. Perspective does matter quite a bit :)
Who els is watching this at school

I love ur vid so much
Lady u r beautiful n ur way of teaching is also impressive. Thnx a lot.....
very good video! See u next week
thanks i used this video in my fourth grade class today!
Wow very informative thanx.
Very educational 👍
I love this video! But I wish you could update it to include the "upcoming 2024" eclipse instead of the 2017. Just an hopeful idea. :)
thx you are so much help
see i just asked becoz i think you are great teacher and can explain better then my teacher.
Thank you 💕
Solar sme
Lunar sem
So much easier to understand in my language (Bulgarian). The word for eclipse also sounds like darkening. Nobody can get confused because if you say "Solar eclipse" you basically say "Darkening the sun".
2.04
I learned something and also...this expression is Adorable and like small kid...hahaha
Good teacher
may be because the length of the arc of the eclipse in the two sides are not equal.
correct me if i am wrong
On September 6th 2017 in corpus Cristi Texas around 8:30-9:30 full lunar eclipse
I remember when your channel only had a few thousand subscribers
Good explained
Helped me alot got an a on my test
can you explain the axis of rotation of spherical objects, and why venus and uranus rotates clockwise unlike other planets anticlockwise
Thank you so much this really helped my for my science test tommorow btw I’m in 8 th grade
Good video!
Physics girl u r awsm..u r my fvrt...i liked ur dance...
Catchy song! 1:54 🤣👏🏻
can you make a video about why the suns outer layer is slowing down?
Thanks a million
If you would go even faster, that would be more captioning, I think. The basics are pretty doable, I think that most people watching you will already have a certain kind of basic knowledge about everything, so if it were up to me, you could just as well tell us more in the same time, or just as much in a shorter time.
It is just a thought, the content of the video is great :)
This really helped me on my science test
I love it yay I'm happy cause you're the bset yay shear for you
this is prefect for my project
I love this
Ma'am if, during solar eclipse, what would we see if we stood on Moon and look at on Earth?
When I would go backpacking an at night you could see something come out of the earth shadow so a light appears where you could not see it before. You see a moving light an it goes out in med sky it passes into the earth shadow
Thanks physics girl
Do a video of the january 31 2018 Blue moon
Thanks :)
omg thx so much
Great video! that clears everything.
nice video
I have the answer for the question you asked! its because the earth doesn't revolve around the earth perfectly like sometimes the earth is closer to the earth and sometimes far away...so the eclipses aren't exactly 6 months after the first eclipse .....
I thought what you are describing as a solar eclipse is actually a solar occultation/ lunar eclipse... Occultation meaning to conceal and eclipse meaning to surpass out-do or stand in front of.
just one last question. why is it said that about 600 million years after there will only be partial eclipses.? and why is the moon going away from earth?
i have one more question. why is it said to wear glasses while looking at sun during a solar eclipse
