About Solar Eclipse
A solar eclipse occurs when the moon's orbit takes it to a position between the Earth and the Sun. The moon's image makes it appear that a 'bite' is taken out of the sun. The moon can completely cover the sun (at least it appears so) during a total eclipse of the sun. These are very rare, and in ancient times were thought to be mystical occurrences.
About New Moon
The New Moon is when the moon is a very thin crescent and is in its waxing phase. In astronomical terms, the new moon is not visible to the eye, as the moon is between the earth and the sun and the dark side is facing the earth.
