What else can I help you with?
How long does it take the moon to make a full rotation on its axis?
27.3 days.
Why do you have half and full moon?
Due to the phases of the moon and rotation of the Earth.
How long does it take for the moon to make 1 rotation?
27.3217 days. This is known as the moon's sidereal rotation period. The time between full moons is longer because the earth is going around the sun.
What is it that the phases of the moon depends on?
The phase of the moon depends on the rotation of the moon. A full moon gets full sun. A new moon is on the other side of the earth from the sun.
What is the period of rotation for Luna?
The period of rotation for the Moon (Luna) is approximately 27.3 Earth days. This means it takes about 27.3 days for the Moon to complete one full rotation on its axis.
How long does the moon rotate?
The moon is always rotating. It completes a full rotation every 27.32 days.
Are all full moon the same?
The appearance of full moons tend to vary in size. This is an optical illusion caused by the Earth's rotation and the distance between Earth and the Moon at the time of the full moon.
How much time does it take for the moon to make one rotation?
The rotation period of the moon is 27.32 days.
How long does it take Saturn to do a full rotation around the moon?
Saturn only does full rotations around the sun. It is totally unaware of the existence of earth's moon, and is completely unaffected by the moon's location.
How long does it take the earth to make a rotation?
It takes 24 earth hours for it to make a full rotation.
How long is the moon's rotation?
The rotation of the moon, or the time it takes to rotate on it's axis exactly once, is 27.322 days (rounded), and the moon's orbital period, or the time the moon takes to complete one full revolution around the Earth, is exactly the same. That's why the Moon appears to always show the same face. We see the same side of the moon and never get to view the far side from Earth.
How long does the moon take to complete both of these motion?
One revolution of the Moon around the Earth takes about 27.5 days. Note that a full cycle, from full Moon to full Moon, is a bit longer, about 29.5 days.One of the Moon's rotation around its axis is also 27.5 days.
