A flat Earth video I recently watched asked how the moon can go from West to East and at a slow pace relative to the fast speed of the Earth vs the slower speed of the Moon.

Well this animation answers that question pretty easily.

The speed of the eclipse over the Earth and the direction of the eclipse isn't tied to the Moon's speed—the eclipse isn't showing the Moon's movement—but the Earth's movement in relation to the source of the light: the Sun.
