My inquiry question is: What is an eclipse? How would the patterns of eclipses change if the Sun, Earth or Moon were positioned differently?  Answer: An eclipse is when an object is in front of the other and blocks the view and creates a shadow. Example- when the Moon is in the way of the sunlight reaching the Earth, the Moon gets lit up on one side of it and we see the dark side. If the universe was set up as Sun, Earth then The Moon, The sun might only reach its sunlight to half of the Earth and half of it would be dark plus The Moon would be completely dark in this part of the cycle because of the suns shadow. The Earth would look like the picture above. If the universe was set up as Sun, Earth then The Moon, The sun might only reach its sunlight to half of the Earth and half of it would be dark plus The Moon would be completely dark in this part of the cycle because of the suns shadow.
