To take in all the reasons how our moon creates such a nice eclipse is
amazing. How perfect is it for blocking out the sun's radiation?


Total' means that the sun's disk is totally blocked from view. You can
see light emitted from the sun's corona which extends past the area
blocked by the moon.

Forbidden subject. LOL



What is the total gravitation increase when the sun,and moon are one in
that area? Does a total eclipse case higher tides? Bert



No more so than what happens every lunar month at new moon.

Gravity and tidal forces. If gravity were instant, tides would be instant.
