Every new moon, because every time the moon got between us and the sun, it would be a solar eclipse.

i imagine i'd be stepping outdoors my uniqueness the following slightly of, yet the following is my idea in this. i'm assuming that by an orbital airplane of 0 tiers, you mean that the moon orbits interior an identical airplane because the solar. thus, a photo voltaic eclipse may take position about once a month and a lunar eclipse may take position about once a month. extra precisely, a lunar eclipse may take position about once each and every 29.5 days. this era of time is familiar because the synodic month (see my source). it really is the time it takes the moon to finish one vacation round the earth and get decrease back into an identical position relative to the solar (it really is needed for eclipses). A photo voltaic eclipse may ensue once each and every 29.5 days too. A photo voltaic eclipse takes position at the same time as the moon is in between the earth and solar. A lunar eclipse takes position at the same time as the earth is in between the solar and moon. for that reason, those 2 activities does no longer take position round an identical time; they could be as spread out as accessible, by about 15 days. If we were to adventure a lunar eclipse on the instant, we may have a photo voltaic eclipse in 15 days from now and the subsequent lunar eclipse in about 30 days from now. wish this facilitates. As an afterthought, I imagine the eclipses may also very last more than they do now. What does anybody else imagine?

Patrick is right, a solar eclipse every month. And all the total solar eclipses would be seen in the tropics. Partial Solar eclipses could be seen outside the tropics, but not all the way to the poles. Total lunar eclipses would be visible from all over the world (well, half the world at a time) once a Month.

Solar eclipse would be every new moon (because then the moon is towards the Sun and the moon's shadow would fall on the Earth) and would be visible along the Earth's equator. Lunar eclipse would be every full moon (because then the Earth would be between the moon and Sun, and Earth's shadow would fall on the moon) and would be visible by everyone able to see the moon on the night side of the Earth.

If a moon's orbital plane was zero degrees, solar eclipses would occur at every new moon, and lunar eclipses at every full moon. The solar eclipses would be seen at 23.5 degrees southern latitude, and the lunar eclipses at 23.5 northern latitude.

I believe it is about 29-30 days. and can be seen between the new moons.
