Why is the moon not always visible in the night sky?

The moon is not always visible because the moon has a daily motion of about 25 hours so it will appear in different locations in the sky each day.


On the night when you were watching the Moon at sunset and then at 1000 its overall motion in the sky during that time was?

The Moon's overall motion (apparent motion) in the sky was from East to West.


How many motions does the moon have?

The motion of the moon is 2,808 a year


What direction relative to an observer on the earth's surface does the moon travel in its orbit?

In this case, there is 'true' motion, and there is 'apparent' motion. To an observer on earth, the moon 'appears' to rise in the east and set in the west, just like the sun. But in fact the moon travels from west to east in its orbit around the earth. From a perspective far about the earth and to the north, the moon travels counter-clockwise around the earth. It is the relatively rapid daily spin of the earth from west to east that causes the apparent motion. The moon takes a whole month to orbit earth; in that time 27+ days have gone by on earth.

When does a planet is said to be in retrograde motion?

A planet is said to be in retrograde motion when its apparent motion - the motion as seen by us, against the background stars - is from east to west.Planets spend more time in prograde motion, from west to east. The apparent movement of Sun and Moon against the background stars is also from west to east. Not to be confused with the daily motion, due to Earth's rotation.
