How does a solar eclipse form? A solar eclipse is formed when the sun, earth, and moon are in a straight line with the moon in the middle. The moon will block the sun's light and be seen as a solar eclipse by the observer's eyes. The type of eclipse formed is determined by how far the moon is located from the earth. Keep an eye on the moon as it will get closer to its new moon position the next two weeks.
