What else can I help you with?
When a solar eclipse happens what happens?
The moon, Earth, and sun line up. We, Earth, see the moon in front of the sun, blocking it, and it forms a halo shape light.
Why a lunar eclipse happens?
The earth's shadow blocks the light from the sun from reaching the moon, so we can no longer see it.
What are the different shapes of the moon you see from the earth are called?
Moon phases. As the moon revolves around the earth on its tilted path, (search for diagrams to find out what happens with it tilted) the light from the sun hits the moon and reflects towards earth. But we see a different amount of light and darkness depending on where it is in the orbit. This causes us to see different shapes.
Why does full moon occur?
This happens when the moon is on the opposite side of the earth from the sun. The moon reflects the light of the sun, and because it is directly opposite, we can see half of it from the earth. This is the half that appears as the full moon.
Is moon a source of light?
No, the moon does not emit its own light. Instead, it reflects light from the sun, which is why the moon appears to light up the night sky. This phenomenon is what allows us to see the moon from Earth.
Why can't I see the stars when I can see the moon?
Sometimes the brightness of the light from the moon drowns out the star's light.
Why do we see the moon?
We see the moon because it reflects the sun's light.
Does the moon provide light in the solar system?
No, the Moon generates no light of its own. However, it reflects the light of the Sun, so when you see moonlight you are actually seeing reflected sunlight.(They apparently didn't think about that when they created the vampire legends. If sunlight kills vampires and moonlight is just reflected sunlight, why doesn't moonlight kill vampires, too?)
What happend to the other side of the moon in half moon day?
Nothing happens to the other side of the Moon in half moon days. The reason we do not see the whole Moon is because only half of it is reflecting the light from the Sun.
What happens to the amount of light reflected by the moon to the earth as it turns towards the sun?
it is because of this reflected light you can clearly see the moon
What is the source of light you see from the moon?
The light we see from the moon is actually sunlight that is reflected off the lunar surface. The moon does not produce its own light.
Why do you see moon in day light also?
The moon reflects the light from the sun.
