During the new moon you can't see no bright side because the sun is facing away from the moon.
What else can I help you with?
How much of the bright side of the moon is visible during a full moon?
All of it. That's why it's called a "full" moon.
What is the side of the moon that is always facing earth?
the bright side
When the moon appears to be a bright circle it is in this phase?
The moon appears as a bright circle during the full moon phase. This occurs when the Earth is directly between the sun and moon, with the sun fully illuminating the side of the moon facing Earth, making it appear as a complete circle.
What you see of the moon depends on how much of the sunlit side of the moon faces the earth?
Yes, exactly. The part of the Moon we see bright is the part that is exposed to direct sunlight.
What is the bright side of the half moon?
The illuminated part
What percentage of the moon's bright side can you see durning a new moon?
68 percent
How are the sun moon and Earth are positioned relative to each other during a new moon and how this alignment changes to produce a full moon?
During the new moon the Moon is between the Earth an the Sun. Hence only the side that cannot be seen from Earth is illuminated, making the moon appear dark. During the full moon the Earth is between the Sun and the Moon so sunlight falls on the side of the moon facing the Earth, making it appear bright.
Why there is a phases in the moon?
Depending on the relative position (direction, actually) of Earth, Moon, and Sun, we see the bright side of the Moon (full moon), the dark side (new moon), or something in between.
If you were on the moons near side during a new moon how much of the side of earth facing you would be sunlit?
During a new moon, the side of the Earth facing the Moon would be completely sunlit. This is because, from the Moon's perspective, the Sun is positioned directly behind the Earth, illuminating the entire hemisphere of the Earth that is facing the Moon. Therefore, if you were on the Moon's near side during a new moon, you would see the Earth fully illuminated.
What is it callled when you cannot see the lit side of the moon?
That is called the New Moon. The moon is between the Earth and the Sun. The sun is so bright, it makes the moon impossible to see, and, of course it's lit side is facing the sun.
What is it called when we see the entire sunlight side of the moon?
When we see the entire sunlight side of the Moon, it is called a "full moon." During this phase, the Earth is positioned between the Sun and the Moon, allowing the Sun's light to fully illuminate the Moon's surface as viewed from Earth. This results in a bright, round appearance in the night sky.
When is the lighted side of the moon seen from the earth the same?
The lighted side of the Moon seen from Earth is the same during a full moon. At this phase, the Earth is positioned between the Sun and the Moon, allowing us to see the entire illuminated portion of the Moon's surface. This alignment results in the Moon appearing fully round and bright in the night sky.
