    The Moon, the Sun, and Earth form a straight line during the new Moon and full Moon.

    Explanation:

    When the earth, moon, and sun line up - which happens at times of full moon or new moon - the lunar and solar tides reinforce each other, leading to more extreme tides, called spring tides.
