Very little, you will see the planet Earth, and depending on the amount of light available and cloud cover you may be able to see the continents at best, the moon is too far away to see any more detail with the naked eye.

Why is the moon not seen from the earth?

The moon is seen from the Earth...


Can the moon be seen anywhere at anytime?

No, the moon orbits the earth there for it is on the other side of the earth at day and visible at night. you can only see the moon when your side of the earth is facing it and some light from the sun is reflecting from it.


Explain what causes us to see the different phases of the moon Include in your explanation a reference to the motion of the moon involved the relationship of the earth's and moon's plane of orbit a?

What you can see of the moon is the light of the sun on the moon. The part that is dark is where the sun's light is not shining on the moon. The part where the light of the sun is on the moon is experiencing "moon day" and where it is not shining is the "moon night." When the moon is in part of its orbit that is between the earth and the sun, we mostly see the part of the moon which is dark. Since the moon is on the sun's side of the earth, we see it during the day. So a New Moon can always be seen during the day. Conversely, when the moon is in the part of its orbit in which the earth is between the moon and the sun, we mostly see the part of the moon which is in sunshine. We mostly see the moon at night, and a Full Moon can always be seen during the night. It is important to note that the dark part of the moon is not the earth's shadow on the moon. The earth's shadow falls on the moon occurs during a lunar eclipse, which is always during a full moon because the earth is between the sun and the moon and always seen at night.


What can be seen from Earth early in the morning or late in the evening?

The sun can be seen at both times of day. If it is a nice day, you can also see clouds and possibly remnants of the moon from the night before as long as it wasnt a "no moon" night.

When the Moon can be seen in the night sky, it is because the Sun on the other side of the Earth is illuminating the Moon to an extent where humans can pick it up on their visual scanning apparatus.


What are the factors that keep the Moon in orbit around Earth?

The gravitational forces between the Earth and Moon keep things together. The moon is slowly getting farther from Earth, however. Ancient humans would have seen a much larger moon in the night sky...
