During a lunar eclipse, the order of the sun, moon, and earth is as follows:
1. Earth: The Earth is located between the Sun and the Moon. It blocks the Sun's light from reaching the Moon, resulting in the eclipse.
2. Moon: The Moon is positioned on the opposite side of the Earth from the Sun. As the Earth casts its shadow on the Moon, it gradually becomes darker during the eclipse.
3. Sun: The Sun is on the opposite side of the Earth compared to the Moon. Its light is blocked or partially blocked by the Earth, causing the Moon to appear dimmer or reddish during a lunar eclipse.
