No, the moon is made of rock and dust and is not a reflective surface. You can not see the Earth reflected off it.

When does earthshine occur?

Sunlight reflected from Earth, especially that reflected onto the dark side of the Moon. For a few days before and after each new moon, this doubly reflected light is powerful enough to make the whole Moon visible, producing the effect, in the case of the new moon, of "the new moon holding the old moon in her arms."


Does earth reflect or emit light onto the moon?

The Sun's light is reflected off the Moon, making it appear to glow. The Moon is not reflecting light from the Earth. Although some sunlight is reflecting off the Earth to the Moon.


Why is it that the round outline of the moon can sometimes be seen during the new moon or cresant phase?

This is due to sunlight being reflected off the earth, onto the moon. Lighting up areas that are not directly lit by the sun.


Where does the light come from that you see from the moon?

The light comes from the Sun. Not only does the Sun shine on Earth, but it also shines on the Moon. The sunlight that shines onto the Moon is reflected back into space and we see it as moon light. NB All the othert planets in the Solar System will have sun lighty.


What does it mean when the moon turns orange red?

I'm pretty sure it means that something really bad has or is going to happen to you or someone you know. But I don't know completely? That's when a lunar eclipse occurs. The Sun earth and moon have lined up exactly, with the Earth between the moon and the sun. The earths shadow is cast onto the moon. It turns red because the earths atmosphere seperates all of the colours from the sun, we see the red part of the spectrum on the moon.

How many types of symmetry are there?

There are several types of symmetry:rotational symmetry: an object maps exactly onto another if rotated about an axistranslational symmetry: an object maps exactly onto another if moved along a linereflective symmetry: an object maps exactly onto another if reflected along a lineand many combinations of the above, such as helical symmetry where an object maps exactly onto another if moved along a line and rotated about an axis.· Rotoreflection symmetry· Helical symmetry· Non-isometric symmetries· Scale symmetry and fractals
