This may seem like a stupid question, but how come during solar eclipses the moon happens to be an almost perfect for over the sun? Especially considering the fact that they are so different in size and distance from the Earth? Is this coincidental?

It’s like when you’re standing close to a big building and you step back and realize it’s actually much bigger. The sun is way bigger than the moon, but it’s also way farther away from us, so from our perspective, they look about the same size.
