What is the moment when the sun appears to be across the celestial equator called?
The sun appears to cross the celestial equator twice in the course of one year. The point in the sky where the sun appears to cross the celestial equator on its way south is called the Autumnal Equinox. The moment when it appears to be in that position is called the "Beginning of Fall" in the northern hemisphere. The point in the sky where the sun appears to cross the celestial equator on its way north is called the Vernal Equinox. The moment when it appears to be in that position is called the "Beginning of Spring" in the northern hemisphere.This happens at the equinox, which is around March 21 and September 21. (The date varies a day or so either way, depending on the cycle of leap years.)If you need to know exactly when this is, you can look that up on the US Naval Observatory's web site on the "Earth's Seasons" page (linked below).

"stare" - to look at something for a prolonged period of time, whether it be with curiosity, or to study it carefully. "rubberneck" - to look at something that does not concern you and which may then cause inconvenience to others, such as when people "rubberneck" at traffic accidents. "sightsee" - generally denotes an interest in something new, as a tourist may do when visiting a new place. "look" - implies directing one's eyes to something, but not for a protracted length of time.

Why the moon appears to have different phases?
Because of its position relative to Earth and the Sun. The Moon orbits the Earth once every 29 days. Starting with day 1. It is a NEW Moon . Its position is in a plane between Earth and Sun. We do NOT see a New Moon, because the Sun's Light over powers it, except when that plane the Moon in , becomes a direct line between Earth Moon & Sun; then it is a Solar Eclipse. From day 2 to 7 the Moon is moving away from the Sun's plane, so we begin to see it . During this period is a WAXING CRESCENT Moon and seen in the evening, shortly after Sunset. At day 7 the Moon is at a right angle(90 degrees) between Earth & Sun, So we see it as a half circle , known as FIRST QUARTER ( Because it has gone a Quarter way around its orbit of Earth). From day 8 to 14 the Moon is moving away from the Sun's plane, so we begin to see it . During this period is a WAXING GIBBOUS Moon and seen in the early night. At day 14 or 15 the Moon is at a plane (180 degrees) This plane is Sun, Earth and Moon. So we see it as a full circle , known as FULL MOON ( Because it has gone a half way around its orbit of Earth). At this point , if the Sun Earth and Moon are in a staight line , we see a LUNAR Eclipse. The Moon is far less bright and appears as a dull red or grey colour, due to Earth's reflected light. From day 15 to 21 the Moon is moving towards the Sun's plane, so we begin to see it . During this period is a WANING GIBBOUS Moon and seen in the late night. At day 21 the Moon is at a right angle(90 degrees) between Earth & Sun, , but on the opposite side of the Earth. So we see it as a half circle , However, the circle is the opposite way around to the first quarter. , known as LAST QUARTER ( Because it has gone a Three Quarter way around its orbit of Earth). From day 22 to 28 the Moon is moving towards the Sun's plane, so we begin to see it . During this period is a WANING CRESCENT Moon and seen in the early morning before sunrise. Day 29 or 1. It is a NEW Moon . Its position is in a plane between Earth and Sun. We do NOT see a New Moon, because the Sun's Light over powers it, except when that plane the Moon in , becomes a direct line between Earth Moon & Sun; then it is a Solar Eclipse. And the process is repeated. As an experiment , Din a darkened room, with a pin-hole of bright light, two balls, one larger than the other. The pin-hole of light is the Sun , The larger ball is the Earth , and the smaller is the Moon. Place the Moon(ball) between Earth(Ball) and Sun (pin hole) and look at it from behind the Earth. . Then move the Moon to a right angled postion and loo at it from the opposite side of the Earth. . Similarly for a stright line , Sun, Earth and Moon , and finally at the opposite side of the Earth. If done well then you should see the Moon (ball) its its different phases(shadows). Hope that helps!!!!!
