for the next hundred millenia, they are the same angular diameter, and this is the reason why we have total solar eclipses. in the distant future however, this won't be the case because the moon will get further apart from the earth and become smaller in angular diameter.
yes the moon is visible when the sun is up
yes half the moon is lit up by the sun
During a full moon, the Sun is opposite to the Moon, in the sky.During a full moon, the Sun is opposite to the Moon, in the sky.During a full moon, the Sun is opposite to the Moon, in the sky.During a full moon, the Sun is opposite to the Moon, in the sky.
Nothing is happening on the moon when it lights up. The moon is illuminated by the sun, but only the half that faces the sun.
The Moon appears to be lit up because it reflects light from the Sun. The amount of the Moon that is illuminated by the Sun changes as the Moon orbits the Earth, creating different phases like full moon, new moon, and crescent moon.
When the Earth is directly between the Sun and Moon, its shadow falls on the moon, causing a Lunar Eclipse.
The sun! depending on where the sun is and where the moon is depends on how much u can see the moon at night
The surface of the moon heats up.
if it is a full moon, then yes.
In a lunar eclipse, the Sun, Earth and Moon are lined up so precisely that the Moon is in the Earth's shadow. Sun . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Earth - Moon
Sizing Up the Senate was created in 1999.
The tides are high when the Moon and the Sun are lined up on one side of the Earth. This is when there is the greatest gravitational pull on the water there. When the Sun is lined up right behind the Moon, then the Moon appears black (because the Sun's not on the other side to light it up)
