How long does it take for the moon to make one revolution around the Earth?

A lunar cycle is the time it takes for the moon to make a full revolution around the Earth. It takes about 29.5 days.


How long does it take the moon to complete its phases?

The lunar cycle requires about 29 1/2 days (29.531 days). This is longer than the actual time it takes to orbit the Earth and to make a complete rotation (which are the same time). This is because the Earth and Moon are orbiting the Sun, the light from which is reflected by the Moon and observed on Earth.29.53 days29.53 days


When is the first lunar month?

A lunar month is the amount of time it takes for the Moon to pass through each of its phases (new moon, half, full moon), and then return back to its original position. It takes 29 days, 12 hours, 44 minutes and 3 seconds for the Moon to complete one lunar month. You might have heard that the Moon only takes 27.3 days to complete one orbit around the Earth. So why is a lunar month more than 2 days longer than the orbit of the Moon? A lunar month is the amount of time it takes for the Moon to get from a specific phase, like a new moon, back to the same phase. In other words, the Moon has to get back to the point in its orbit where the Sun is in the same position from our point of view. Since the Moon is going around the Sun with the Earth as part of its orbit, the Moon has to catch up a little bit on each orbit. It takes 2.2 additional days each orbit of the Moon to catch up.

Depends on what you want to do when you get there. Interplanetary probes make the journey in about a day. The Apollo lunar landing missions took about 3 days the travel the same distance.

How many days does it takes the moon to complete the lunar phase cycle ecplain?

It takes 29.531 days. (rounded) That's the time required for the moon to physically orbit the Earth (27.32 days), plus the extra part of the orbit that it has to cover to make up for the roughly 27 degrees that the Earth has moved in its orbit during that time ... since the visual 'phases' are all the result of our positions compared to the sun.
