Once a month, Earth passes directly between the moon and the sun. Is a solar eclipse possible during this time?

Yes, because full moons happen when Earth is between the moon and the sun, and solar eclipses happen only during full moons.

No, because new moons happen when Earth is between the moon and the sun, and solar eclipses happen only during full moons.

Yes, because new moons happen when Earth is between the moon and the sun, and solar eclipses happen only during new moons.
