Why aren't there solar eclipses every month? - Curiosamente #1

As you know a solar eclipse occurs when the moon is placed between the earth and the sun. But, if the moon takes about 28 days to travel around Earth... Why don’t we see eclipses every month? "Eclipse" comes from the Greek word "ékleipsis," meaning disappearance. Eclipses occur when celestial bodies align. A solar eclipse happens when the moon is between the Earth and the sun, but we don't see them monthly because the moon's orbit is tilted. Eclipses happen at lunar nodes, occurring around twice a year. However, Earth's rotation isn't perfectly synchronized with lunar cycles, so eclipse locations vary. Astronomers can predict them accurately. Ancient civilizations, like the Maya, also noticed eclipse regularity. A total eclipse occurs if you're directly under the moon's shadow, and the type may vary based on the moon's distance."
