First off the moon doesn't orbit around the earth. But it takes aproximatly one month to go through all the moon phases.

The moon cycle from one new moon to the next is about 29.5 days. This period is known as the synodic month and represents the time it takes for the moon to go through all its phases.
Because that is the time it takes for the moon to go thru a complete cycle. It is based on the speed of the earth and moon.
That's the time it takes the Moon to go (approximately) half way round the Earth. The time an object takes to orbit Earth depends on its distance from Earth.
14.5 days.
The Space Shuttle does not go to the moon. It only orbits the Earth.
approximately 28 days
No - it takes about 2 weeks to go from a new moon to a full moon - then 2 more weeks to go from a full moon, to a new moon again. 4 weeks total - that's why it's called a "month" - it comes from the word "moon" ---- The periodic variations in the geometry of the Earth-Moon-Sun system are responsible for the phases of the moon, which repeat every 29.5 days, thus from new to full moon takes half this time
The full lunar cycle is roughly 4 weeks, and from full-moon to new-moon is half the cycle, so it would take (roughly) 2 weeks to go from full to new moon.
It took roughly 3 days to go to the moon and another 3 days to return from the moon.
about 15 days
