1. The document discusses the three types of solar eclipses: total, partial, and annular.
2. A total solar eclipse occurs when the moon completely blocks the sun's disc from view. A partial solar eclipse happens when only a part of the sun is obscured by the moon.
3. An annular solar eclipse is when the moon is too far away from Earth to cover the sun completely, so it leaves the sun's outer edges visible, making it look like a ring.
