the moon is always in the sky, but due to the earths rotation it cant be seen during the day.
The orbital path of the moon and gravitational attraction between the moon and the earth keep it up there where it is supposed to be.
A moon is a round shaped circle in the sky which comes up when the sun goes down
Both the Sun and the Moon rises towards the East and sets towards the West. There are times during the Moon orbit round the Earth, when the Moon is in the sky during daylight. The brightness of the sunlight makes it difficult to spot the Moon in the sky.
because there is no atmosphere to break up the visible spectrum of light
The same reason you have to look up to see the moon when you're standing on earth. From earth, the moon appears to move across the sky, but on the moon, the earth stays in the same spot at all times. This is because the near side of the moon is always pointing to earth while the earth rotates, which gives the moon the appearance of movement across the sky.
The length of time it stays in the sky doesn't change. What changes is the length of time that you can see it.The moon is in the sky for just about the same amount of time every day as everything else is ... the sun, the planets, the stars, etc. Actually almost 25 minutes longer every day than all the rest, on the average.As the moon's position in the sky changes, the length of time it stays up after the sun sets changes.When it's nearest to the sun in the sky ... appearing as a skinny crescent ... it either rises just before the sun, or sets just after the sun.When it's farthest from the sun in the sky (at the time of Full Moon), it rises just as the sun sets, and is in the sky all night.But the truth is that any time the moon is more than half full ... for about the middle two weeks of every full cycle of phases ... it's bright enough to see during the day too, if you know where to look.

When you see it up in the sky, yes! Venus is the second brightest object in the night sky. Our moon is first.
It's the same as the sky is brighter when the Sun is up, only not as much.
its pushed up using a twain...
The moon is easily seen in the night sky. You just have to look up.
Look up in the sky, it's a bird, it's a plane, no, it's the moon.

When the Moon can be seen in the night sky, it is because the Sun on the other side of the Earth is illuminating the Moon to an extent where humans can pick it up on their visual scanning apparatus.
There is no year of discovery. The moon is an obvious object in the sky. You can see it just by looking up.
