Shadows and eclipses are formed because light travels in a straight line. This principle is known as the rectilinear propagation of light. When an opaque object blocks the path of light, a shadow is cast in the region where the light cannot reach. An eclipse is a specific type of shadow phenomenon where one celestial body blocks the light from another.
