A little less than half. The moon "wobbles" slightly, meaning that we see a bit over half of its surface over the course of time.
None of it really unless the silhouette is visible because of a solar eclipse or from the earthshine
All of it. That's why it's called a "full" moon.
When the moon is fully visible to observers on Earth, it is said to be at its full moon phase. This occurs when the sun, Earth, and moon are aligned in a straight line, with the Earth in between the sun and moon. The full moon appears as a complete circle and is the brightest phase of the moon.
How much of it is visible from earth, ie half moon, full moon etc. These are the phases
You will never see a full moon during daytime. This is because the full moon is directly opposite the sun in the sky, making it visible only at night when the sun has set.
You will never see a crescent moon during sunrise and before sunset because the moon rises and sets with the sun and when the crescent moon is visible, it is typically seen later in the evening or early in the morning.
The new moon is visible once a month when the moon is blocked by the Earth's shadow
There are 8 "named" phases of the Moon, representing the portion of its sunlit surface that is visible from Earth. (Whether the progression is from right to left, or left to right, depends on whether you are north or south of the Equator) New moon (Not visible or very barely visible) Waxing Crescent moon (1-49% visible) First Quarter moon (50% visible) Waxing gibbous moon (51-99% visible) Full Moon (Fully visible) Waning gibbous Moon (51-99% visible, opposite side of face from Waxing) Last Quarter Moon (50% visible, opposite half from that visible on First Quarter) Waning Crescent Moon (1-49% visible)
The full moon in October 1951 was: 13th waxing gibbous 98% visible 14th full moon 100% visible 15th full moon 100% visible 16th full moon 98% visible 17th waning gibbous 94% visible
it is not visible but it is there
yes the moon is visible when the sun is up
The moon is visible to us because it reflects the sun's light.
