When you are flying in an airplane why can't you see other airplanes?

You can, if you know where and when to look. Generally aviation rules enforce a minimum separation between aircraft on the same flight level.
Generally the separation (controlled airspace) for aircraft flying the same direction at the same level is 5 nautical miles (9.3 km). That distance means that the other aircraft will be hard to see (appears like a small dot).
Often when flying you do see other aircraft crossing at + or - 1000 feet....
If you can see another aircraft at the same level, this is not generally a good thing...
Under visual flight rules, planes must only remain well clear of each other, so you may see another aeroplane if you are in a small plane flying outside of Controlled areas.. your pilot's prime job is to see these planes and avoid them.

Is it illegal to look at a moose from a flying vehicle in Alaska?
Last I checked you cant help it if you happen to look down from a flying vehicle. And I don't think that you will get in trouble if happen to see a moose when you do so. First of all, vehicles (cars) can't fly. That's airplanes. Second, I don't think a moose will be visible from up high in the sky.....what kind of question is this? XD It is illegal in Alaska to push a moose out of a flying airplane though. I don't know why someone would push a moose out a airplane, or why the moose would even be in the airplane on the first place, but it must have happened before because why else would they have the law???
