A telescope would give you a detailed view.
Without the moon we would have no tides and many of the currents that keep the oceans working the way they do would not exist.
Yes, solar power reaches the moon.
The Eagle's landing base and the reflector the Apollo astronauts left (this would prove they actually landed once and for all).Huge amounts of natural resources.Water on the moon would be useful for us.
no beacuse its a little to stellar.
New, because you would be looking at the shadow side of the moon, because the moon is between you and the sun.
Seeing that there is no precipitation on the moon, the answer is no. ______________________________ However, it might be useful as a parasol at protecting you from the intense light of the Sun. :-)
Probably one of the most useful resource on the moon would be titanium, of which there is a high abundance.
A parachute requires the drag of the atmosphere to slow the descent. As there is no atmosphere on the Moon, a parachute would be as useful as a chocolate diaper (nappy).
No. Matches need air to burn and there is no oxygen on the moon. Remember, the men who landed on the moon wore moon suits because they carried their own oxygen.
Electrolysis separates water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen. This is a useful process on the moon because we can use water on the moon to supply a colony with a reliable local source of breathable oxygen and burnable hydrogen, rather than having to fly it all the way from earth.
Any person on earth can see the phase of the moon by looking for the moon in the night sky. The only reason you would not be able to determine the phase of the moon by observational means would be if the night sky was obscured by clouds.
For earthbound investigators, the Foucault pendulum provides a nice proof.
