Fun fact:-
In some religion, people practice starting directly into the sun for a period of time, known as "sun gazing ". It is also done as a part of spiritual practice.
Lunar Eclipse;
Occurs when the moon passes directly behind earth into its Umbra(shadow). This can only occur only when the sun, Earth and moon are aligned exactly with Earth in the middle. Hence a lunar eclipse can only occur on the night of full moon 🌝🌕
#astronomy
The word "telescope" originated from the Greek word "tele", which means "far", and "skope" which means "to look" or "see".
Literally telescope 🔭 that means "far seeing"
