What else can I help you with?
'When a full moon occurs if there were people on the moon would they see a 'full' Earth'?
Not necessarily. Think about it... if you can see a full moon in the middle of the night, then someone on the moon would be able to see your part of the earth.... which would be in darkness.
What would you see on earth if you were positioned behind the Moon's umbra?
you would see who and what is built on the moon.
When your friends back on Earth see the moon in its full phase in what phase would you see the earth if you are standing on the side of the moon facing the earth?
If you are standing on the full moon you would be facing the earth at night.
What earth phase do you see when you see a waxing gibbous phase on the moon?
It would be the opposite. If we went to the moon when it was full, we would look back at an earth in shadow (a `new earth`) If we went to the moon when it was new, then it would be between us and the sun, so we would look back at a full earth. For a waxing gibbous from earth, the earth would be a waning crescent from the moon.
What phase of moon would people see from earth?
full moon
Would you see phases of the earth from the moon?
Yes.
How is it possible for us to see the moon at night?
We see light (from the sun) reflected off the moon. That's how we see almost everything! In an eclipse of the earth we would not see the moon as it would be in our shadow.
Why is the side of the moon is always facing earth?
The moon does not rotate on its own axis like Earth does. If you were on the moon looking at the earth you would see it slowly turning. As you have observed,we only see the same side of the moon from earth because the moon does not turn on its own axis.
Phase changes of the Earth that one would see if viewed from the Moon?
Exactly the same as the ones we see the Moon go through from Earth, except that Earth does not always turn the same face to the Moon.
If standing on the surface of the moon might see which one what an eclipse of the moon or eclipse of the earth or the moon or an eclipse of the sun or eclipse of the earth or the sun?
If you were standing on the Moon, it would be easy to notice a solar eclipse; the Earth would block out the Sun, all over the Moon, for an hour or so. On the Earth, we would have called it a lunar eclipse. From the Moon, it would be difficult to notice an Earth eclipse; the shadow of the Moon on the Earth, so obvious when you're in the dark at midday, wouldn't be so obvious from 250K miles away; a small dark circle on the Earth.
Are there eclipses on the moon?
Sure! What we call a lunar eclipse is the shadow of the earth on the moon. So if you were on the moon, you would see the earth block out the sun.
What do you call the moon when it is not visable on earth?
the part of the moon cycle when you would not see it is called the new moon.
