Why aren't moon buggies that were left behind visible on the Moon's surface?

In relation to the size of the moon, they are tiny, and we are so far from the moon. Even the astronauts orbiting the moon could not see them.


Why can't you see the Moon lander on the Moon?

The Moon is much too far away to see anything as small as the lander.


When the moon is in its new phase what can you infer about the opposite side of the moon?

The far side of the moon is always opposite of the visible side. When the moon is new, it is between the Sun and the earth. Since we see the dark side of the moon, the opposite side must be fully lit by the sun. Likewise when we see a gibbous moon, the far side would be a crescent. When we see a full moon, the far side is in complete darkness.


How often do yo see the far side of the moon?

Only 21 people have ever seen the far side of the Moon; they are all the Apollo astronauts. Since nobody has gone to the Moon in the last 45 years, most people NEVER see the far side of the Moon.


Why do you never see the far side of the moon?

You never see the far side of the moon because the moon rotates around Earth much, much faster than it revolves on it's axis. Hope this helped!

Yes. The far side of the moon is dark when we see a full moon. It is partially dark at all phases other than the new moon.


Why is there a near side and a far side of the moon?

We only ever see the same side of the moon. The other side is called the far side or "the dark side of the moon"


Why can you not see the new moon?

We only see the Moon because it reflects light from the Sun. During a new moon, the far side is illuminated, and the near side is not.


Do you see moons or rings?

Why can you see the craters of the moon so clearly on earth?

There can be craters anywhere on the moon, not just the side we see


How far do you have to be to see whole side of earth?
