JLab India Solar & Lunar Eclipse Manual Model
The JLab India Solar & Lunar Eclipse Manual Model is an educational astronomy tool designed to demonstrate how solar and lunar eclipses occur through the alignment of the Sun, Earth, and Moon.
Product Overview
This model is ideal for students, teachers, and educational institutions. It helps in understanding celestial alignment and the conditions required for eclipses in a simple and visual manner.
Product Description
The JLab India Eclipse Model consists of three main components representing the Sun, Earth, and Moon. By manually adjusting their positions, users can demonstrate how shadows are formed, leading to solar and lunar eclipses.
The model clearly explains the difference between a solar eclipse (when the Moon blocks sunlight reaching Earth) and a lunar eclipse (when Earth’s shadow falls on the Moon).
