Shadows, how do they work?

First, the moon is much smaller than the earth. So the moon's shadow covers only a limited region of the earth. Then the earth rotates. No eclipse at night, cuz the sun is on the other side. The earth turns and after a while the eclipse is gone, i.e. the moon has moved away from covering the sun.
