When you go to moon why you have to see up to saw earth?

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.


Why does the time the moon stays in the sky change depending on what phase it's in?

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.
