Does moon look the same everywhere on earth on the same date?

Answer 1

Tides on Earth are caused by the fact that while the Moon is orbiting the Earth, the Earth is also orbiting the Moon. (Because the Earth is much larger than the moon, the Earth moves much less than the Moon does.) The Earth is relatively solid, but the oceans of the earth are liquid.

The different orbital distances of the ocean on the moon-side of the Earth and the ocean on the far-side of the Earth mean that the oceans actually move in different orbits than the Earth itself does, but the water is moving at the orbital speed of the Earth itself. An object farther out from the center of the orbit will fall out away from the center, while an object inside the orbital distance falls toward the center of the orbit.

This causes the liquid oceans to "bulge out" as each water molecule tries to follow its own path ir orbit around the Moon, toward the Moon on the inside and away from the moon on the far side.

The same forces act between the Sun and the Earth, and the tides we see are a blend of the orbital motions of the water under the influence of the Moon and Sun's gravity.

So to answer the question directly, tides are higher at New and Full moons when the Moon and Sun are more-or-less lined up and their orbital forces add up, and less at the quarters of the moon when the orbital forces are at cross-angles to each other.

Answer 2

The phases of the Moon are the same to all observers on Earth, at a given time.

Answer 3

it doesn't look any different from where ever you look at it

Answer 4

no,

The moon's phases are on the same date everywhere around the world, but the moon itself will look different depending on your latitude.

Answer 5

1/4 of the Moon in light

Answer 6

Yes
