The moon always keeps the same "side" ... about half of its surface ... facing the earth.
If you're standing anywhere on that side of the moon, the earth is always in the sky, (though
it might not necessarily be visible, if, for example, there's a mountain in the way).
If you're standing anywhere on the other side, the earth is never in the sky.

If you stand on the moon can you see the other planets?
No Its Just Like When Your Standing On Earth And You Cant See The Planets. The moon is about in the same place as the earth, astronomically speaking. You can see the planets from the moon that are visible from earth. Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn are all visible. If you have good eyes and know where to look, Uranus is also a dim dot.
Could you see earth if you were standing on the dark side of the moon?
If you look down, you will see the surface of the moon. If you look up, you will be able to see other celestial bodies in the sky, such as Earth, stars, other planets, etc., as long as they are not currently below the horizon of the moon. However, since the moon keeps the same face toward the Earth, if you are not on the side facing Earth, you will not see the Earth at all.
Why does earth exerts a greater force than the moon?
There are two reasons: The Earth is more massive than the Moon, and the Earth is closer to you than the Moon. If you were standing on the Moon, then the force of gravity due to the Moon would be greater because you are closer to the Moon.
Why do you see moon?
We can see the moon because it reflects sunlight to Earth.
Where is the moon during a full moon?
During a full moon, the moon is on the far side of the earth, away from the sun. In other words, the earth is between the sun and the moon. That means that the sun is behind us, shining on the part of the moon facing us. Therefore, we see the fully lighted side of the moon, which we call a full moon.

Can you see the occurrence of the eclipse standing on a moon?
You could. It will completely darken the Moon. Not like on Earth, a light and a dark side.
Would a person on the moon see more than one side of the earth?
No because you are standing on a angle on the moon so you would not see more than one side of the earth
When you go to moon why you have to see up to saw earth?
The same reason you have to look up to see the moon when you're standing on earth. From earth, the moon appears to move across the sky, but on the moon, the earth stays in the same spot at all times. This is because the near side of the moon is always pointing to earth while the earth rotates, which gives the moon the appearance of movement across the sky.
Where is a person standing if they experience a total solar eclipse?
When it occurs, a solar eclipse is visible over only a portion of the earth. In order to see it, you must stand: -- at a place on earth where the eclipse will be visible, -- outdoors -- in the daytime, i.e. between the hours of sunrise and sunset
When we stand on earth we see the moon upward and when we stand on moon we see the earth upward. Why is that so?
The human body is made to relate to gravity. When standing on a body of mass, whether it is the Earth or the Moon, we will automatically look up to the sky. Our internal balance and the brain make the association.
How would where you are standing on earth influence how you see the moon?
I believe it is because it the Earth spins and sometimes things seem closer than how they really are.
How do the moon's phases depend on the relative position of the sun moon earth?
The moon absorbs the light of sun and reflect them. We may not see the full moon because the angle we are standing at is wrong. if we stand at he correct angle we will see the moon clearly
Why a person standing on the moon can jump higher than a person standing on earth?
It's simple Gravity you see...When you jump on earth the gravity pulls you down however if you jump on the moon there is no gravity meaning you'll just float off and eventually land.
If standing on the surface of the moon might see which one what an eclipse of the moon or eclipse of the earth or the moon or an eclipse of the sun or eclipse of the earth or the sun?
If you were standing on the Moon, it would be easy to notice a solar eclipse; the Earth would block out the Sun, all over the Moon, for an hour or so. On the Earth, we would have called it a lunar eclipse. From the Moon, it would be difficult to notice an Earth eclipse; the shadow of the Moon on the Earth, so obvious when you're in the dark at midday, wouldn't be so obvious from 250K miles away; a small dark circle on the Earth.
