Does the moon always appear over the eastern horizon at the same time each night?

Do you see the same side of the moon each night?

Yes ya you just see different portions and shadows of the moon. That's why there is the expression 'dark side of the moon' because it is always the same side that they are talking about (the side that always faces the sun)


Stars in the night sky always maintain the same distance from what?

Stars in the night sky always maintain the same distance to what? The sun, the moon, the horizon or the celestial meridian?


Can all of the moon phases be seen at the same time?

No, each one of the moon's phases appears on a different night.


Is a different of the moon surface visible at each full moon?

Nope! We always see the same side of the moon, even if it is a full moon.


Do we always see the same side of the Moon How do you know?

We do not always see the same side of the moon, because while its orbiting the Earth, it is also rotating on its axis, as does Earth. The rotation of the Earth on its axis is what causes night and day.


What causes the moon to have day and night?

The same thing that causes the Earth to have day and night; the Moon spins. Slowly, it is true. The Moon always has the same face turned toward the Earth, but since the Moon orbits the Earth that means that the Moon spins (relative to the Sun) once per orbit. So a "day" on the Moon lasts a little over 14 days, and the lunar "night" is just as long.


When does full moon happens?

When the side of the moon that faces Earth (the same side of the moon always faces Earth) is fully bathed in sunlight. The Moon experiences day and night cycles, but it takes 28 days for the moon to complete a day/night cycle because of the Moon's relatively slow spin (which is what keeps the same side of the Moon facing Earth).

Explain why does the moon not rise at the same time each night?

The Moon orbits the Earth. As a result, it rises about 50 minutes later every day.


What is true about the moon due to the fact that it rotates once for each revolution around earth?

The Moon always shows the same side to us.


Why does the moon appear to move eastward across the sky?

Each night at the same time the moon is further east because that is the direction that the moon orbits the earth. It gets round in about a month.
