Why is the moon at a different point in the sky every night?

The Moon orbits the Earth, once every 28 days. ( one month(Moonth)). So in the position as seen from a given point and time on Earth will change by 1/28 of circle in one day. (approximately) 12 degrees.


What controls the rising and setting of the sun and moon?

the sun is the center our this solar system, there are thousands like it. the earth is moving in a circle around this sun the earth is also spinning itself. the spinning makes the sun appear to rise and set every day the moon is moving in a circle around the earth. sometimes the earth is directly between the sun and the moon and the moon becomes shaded or eclipsed. sun eclipses can also happen when the moon is between the sun and the earth

No, it spins around in a circle on its axis. When the Earth is facing the sun, it is day. When it faces the moon, it is night.


If the moon is half full as seen from earth what would earth look like to a man on the moon?

If you are on the moon at the time of "New Moon", and you are facing the earth, you see a "Full Earth". If you stay up there a while, and call your partner on earth every day, and you describe to each other what you're seeing, you'll notice something very interesting: The part of the moon that HE sees, plus the part of the earth that YOU see, always adds up to a complete circle of illumination. Each of you sees the part of the circle that the other one is missing.
