No. Motions of Earth around the Sun and Moon around the Earth are almost independent of each other. Think about that: if Moon were to rise every time the Sun sets, that would mean that the Moon is always hiding in the shade of the Earth (the Sun-Earth-Moon would be in the straight line), so you would never be able to see the moon (as no light from Sun would ever reach it). The reason that you do not see the Moon and stars during the day (actually sometimes you do) is because the light from the Sun is many many many times brighter.

∙ 11y agoNope. Each night the Moon's proper motion moves it back along its apparent track from east to west about one diameter (29 arcminutes) every hour, or expressed another way, the Moon takes about a month to circle the Earth.
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoSo far as rising in the East and setting in West, yes.
Otherwise, kinda.
The Moon's orbit is inclined to the ecliptic from about 5.0° to 5.3°. So it will rise and set nearly where the Sun does so, but rarely exactly.

∙ 15y agoNo,it does not because the moon rotate's east,and it takes 27.5 days to rotate and 27.5=13.8.So each night the moon rotate's another 13.8 degrees east.
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoIt mostly depends on the day. There is not a sertain time the moon sets.

What makes a wave?
What makes a wave a wave? what makes wave is he location of the moon. If the moon is on the other side of the world then is shouldn't be wavey but in night time... it should be wavey!
Since the earth's shadow creates the crescent moon why does the moon not look like a crescent after 7 days?
Your assumption is not correct. The crescent moon has nothing to do with the shadow of the earth falling upon the moon. The moon being obscured by earth's shadow is a relatively rare event, and it is known as a lunar eclipse. Furthermore, during a lunar eclipse the passing earth shadow does not show as a sharp edge on the moon's surface. The crescent moon shapes that you typically observe over the course of a month are a result of the fact that earth's view of the moon is changing, and as our view changes, we see more of the lit surface of the moon or less, depending on where we are in the month. The moon orbits the earth once every month in its west-to-east orbit. During the same time, the earth is spinning on its axis west-to-east once every 24 hours. This is why the sun, moon and stars all appear to rise in the east. During our nighttimes, we watch the moon slowly progress from lunar noontime (at the time of the full moon, for an observer at the center of the moon's face) to lunar midnight (at the time of the new moon when the view of the moon is obscured by the brightness of the sun) and back to lunar noon at the next full moon. We can sometimes observe the very fine first crescent of the moon shortly after the time of the new moon, after sunset. The moon's orbit around the earth is not in the same plane as the earth's orbit around the sun. This means that the earth's shadow never touches the moon during most months. Now and then, and only at the time of the full moon, the earth's shadow will pass over some or all of the full moon during what is called a lunar eclipse. These eclipses last for a few hours at most.
Can you have a full moon in both hemispheres on the same day?
Yes, when the moon is full, it is full everywhere that day. Only one side of the earth is turned toward the moon at any given time, meaning that only one side can see the moon until the earth turns.
Can ash cause global temperatures to rise?
ash cannot cause global temperatures to rise. At least not all the time
What direction relative to an observer on the earth's surface does the moon travel in its orbit?
In this case, there is 'true' motion, and there is 'apparent' motion. To an observer on earth, the moon 'appears' to rise in the east and set in the west, just like the sun. But in fact the moon travels from west to east in its orbit around the earth. From a perspective far about the earth and to the north, the moon travels counter-clockwise around the earth. It is the relatively rapid daily spin of the earth from west to east that causes the apparent motion. The moon takes a whole month to orbit earth; in that time 27+ days have gone by on earth.
Does the moon rise at the same time and in the same location in the sky?
that would make an eclipse. so no
Why would you choose this topic does the moon rise every night at the same time and in the same location in the sky?
No. Moonrise can occur day or night. The moon is not related to the sun at all. Since our way of measuring time is relative to the sun, the moon does not rise at the same time every time.
Can the moon and the sun rise at the same time?
No
Does the moon rise the same time each day?
no
What time will the moon rise tonight?
Each night the moon rise changes, So.... If you go to timeanddate.com, you can select a location in the drop-down menu and see times for moonrise and moonset in that location. Also provided is local time when the Moon passes the meridian with distance, fraction of the Moon illuminated and moon phase.
What is the rise time of a New Moon in Alamogordo NM?
Since the new moon is between the Sun and the Earth, it will always rise at sunrise, whatever the time of sunrise is at any particular location.
What time does the moon rise in 32408?
It would still rise at a different time every day, the same as it does now.
Do the moon set and rise at the same time each day?
No. The Moon tends to rise about 50 minutes later every day.
What time of the day do you expect the new moon to rise?
The new moon rises about the same time that the Sun does.
Does the moon rise at the same time the same location?
no it slows down a tad so it changes that's why on weather.com it says sunrise at 7:09 Am and another day it says 6:59 AM =)
What time will the full moon rise tonight?
Each night the moon rise changes, So.... If you go to timeanddate.com, you can select a location in the drop-down menu and see times for moonrise and moonset in that location.

Does the moon rise at the same time at the same place?
No. It constantly changes, because it is always moving.
