Have you ever sat on a bench and squeezed people's heads between your fingers. Not really squeezed but just put your fingers next to your eye and made it look like you crushed their head. That is alot like a solar eclipse and today we will see that it is becuase the moon is so close to the Earth that it apears to block out the sun in an eclipse but really it is much smaller than the sun.
