PLEASE HELP When do lunar eclipses occur?(1 point)

A. They happen every month during the new moon.


B. They happen infrequently during the full moon.


C. They happen every month during the full moon.


D. They happen infrequently during the new moon.

Answer 1

i think its B bc Lunar eclipses can only happen when the Moon is opposite the Sun in the sky, during a full moon. But lunar eclipses do not occur every month because the Moon's orbit is tilted five degrees from Earth's orbit around the Sun
