The moon is visible on Earth. That's where we get the idea of months from - from the different appearances of the moon at various times during its orbit around us.
The far side of the Moon.
The moon is visible to us because it reflects the sun's light.
The sun's light reflects off of the surface of the moon, illuminating it and allowing us to see it.
The moon was in first quarter phase when he walked on the moon, so it would have been visible in the USA.
It is the reflection of the sun's light on the moon that makes it visible to us here on Earth.
No, the moon does not play a role in making stars visible to us in the night sky. Stars are visible because they emit their own light, while the moon reflects light from the sun. The moon's brightness can sometimes make it harder to see dimmer stars, but it does not directly affect the visibility of stars.
The moon is visible to us for an average of 12 hours per day, as it rises in the east and sets in the west like the sun. However, the exact hours it is visible can vary based on its phase and our location on Earth.
The moon has one face that is constantly facing the Earth, a phenomenon known as synchronous rotation. This means that only one side of the moon is visible to us from Earth.
Because the side of the moon facing us is in the dark. Also, the moon is too close to the sun to be visible. It is possible to see a new moon with the right telescope. A new moon is also visible during a total solar eclipse.
The light source that allows us to see the moon is the sun. The sun's light reflects off the surface of the moon, making it visible to us on Earth.
Because the light from the sun is reflected off of earth, shining on to the moon so it is then visible to us earthlings.
