The phases of the moon are dependant on the relative positions of the sun, moon and earth.
It's the angle between the view-lines to the sun and the moon, with you at the vertex of the angle.
The phase of the moon you see depends on how much of the sunlit side of the moon faces earth.
there are phases of the moon because when it orbits us sometimes you can't see it and other times you can see half it all depends.
The phases of the moon are caused by the relative positions of the sun, the moon and the observer. It is possible to see phases of the moon in space depending on your position relative to the sun and the moon.
The phase of the moon you see depends on how much of the sunlit side of the moon faces earth.
The phases of the moon are visible because of the relative positions of the Earth, the Moon, and the Sun. As the Moon orbits the Earth, different portions of its illuminated side are visible from Earth, creating the cycle of full, new, and crescent phases. The changing angles between the Earth, Moon, and Sun cause the appearance of the moon's shape to change over the course of a month.
it depends on the phases of the moon
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.
Anywhere that it is night. inless if it is a new moon then you can not see the moon.
The phases are caused by the angle that the sunlight strikes 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.
See the link below to "Phases of the Moon" from the U.S. Naval Observatory.
The phase of the moon that you see depends on the relative positions of the Earth, moon, and sun. As the moon orbits Earth, different portions of its illuminated side are visible from Earth, creating the various phases like full moon, new moon, crescent, and gibbous. These phases change as the moon's position changes in relation to the Earth and sun.
It takes a full month to see all phases of the moon, then it begins again.
