No specific unique events have ever been caused or influenced by the moon's phase. So, forget about werewolves, full moon fever, Astrology, lunology and other myths and pseudosciences. They are simply nonexistent, untrue, or false.

The only real events I can think of that are directly related to the moon's phases are tides and eclipses. The likelihood of higher tides is greater when the moon is new. Lunar eclipses only occur when the moon is full. Solar eclipses only occur when the moon is new. If you want to know some MOON PHASES were are some basic ones full moon, and the new moon!!!

yes the moon phases are predictable because you can tell when a moon phase will appear by knowing what time of month it is.


How can you predict tides and moon phases are things that have not happened?

Tides can be predicted using mathematical models based on the gravitational forces of the moon and sun. Moon phases can be predicted based on the moon's orbit around the Earth and the relative positions of the sun, Earth, and moon. By understanding these celestial mechanics, scientists can accurately forecast tides and moon phases that have not yet occurred.


If the moon were larger would you still see the moon phases?

Yes, you would still see the moon phases because they are caused by the changing angles of sunlight hitting the surface of the moon as it orbits Earth. The size of the moon does not affect the appearance of these phases.


Why are lunar calendars not widely used today?

The seasons affect the scheduling of far more events than the moon phases do.


Does the moon have phases because of the earth's shadow?

No, the moon's phases are caused by the changing angles of sunlight hitting its surface as it orbits Earth. The moon does pass through Earth's shadow during a lunar eclipse, but this is a separate astronomical event from the moon's phases.


Do you see different sides of the moon as the phases of the moon?

No, we see the same side of the moon as it orbits and goes through phases because the moon rotates at the same rate it orbits.


What is going on with the 8 phases of the moon?
