What causes the rise and set times of the stars to change from month to month?

The relative position of the earth. The earth changes its position as it orbits around the sun. As its position changes, the ''apparent'' positions of the stars change. This is also why some constellations appear to be farther north or south or whether they are even visible or not (depending on your location) at certain times of the year. And while the axial tilt doesn't change or wobble enough to be noticeable to us, its angle, relative to the sun, affects our view of space.

∙ 14y agoNo; the Moon moves rather quickly about the Earth. As a result, it rises about 50 minutes earlier every day. I suggest you take the trouble to actually observe the Moon during several days.

∙ 14y agoThe reason why the stars, as well as the sun, the moon, and other astronomical objects rise and set in the sky is because the planet Earth is rotating. Since we are on a spinning platform, everything we see appears be spinning.

∙ 14y agoThey change because, as the earth moves around the sun, the part of the sky that used to be seen at night is now showing during the day, when the sun's light prevents you from seeing it. The part that used to be overhead during the day is now overhead during the night, when you can see it. If you don't understand what I mean, take two objects and place them on a surface, one next to the other. One object will represent the sun and the other will represent the earth. Now move the "earth" slowly around the "sun." You will notice that a point on the "earth" that used to be facing the "sun" is now facing away from it.

∙ 14y agosince the sun hits different things so yeah. i think
Wiki User
∙ 14y agoThe time of moonrise changes because the Earth rotates on it's axis once in 24 hours and the Moon rotates areounf the Earth once in 28 (or so) days.
Wiki User
∙ 14y agoThe Moon orbits the Earth every 28 days or so. So the Moon rises about 45 minutes later each day.

Why do the the times of moonrise and moonset change during the month?
The times of moonrise and moonset change during the month because the Moon orbits the Earth, which causes its position relative to the Earth and Sun to shift. This changing position results in variations in the timing of when the Moon rises and sets each day.
How do the stars locations change over time?
All the stars and the Sun are moving through space in different directions and at different speeds. Over long times (to a person) they change their positions in the sky and the constellations change.
How can you tell the time by the stars?
To tell the time by the stars you need star maps for each month or a "planisphere". Setting and rising times of planets and stars are also found in tables and lists. By observation of a selected star one can then determine real time.
