You only see a percentage of the moon because the Earth is blocking the light from the sun which then reflects off the moon. The other part of the moon has no light shining on it, therefore it cannot be seen
Well, the moon is a sphere, and if it is a full moon you are really only seing half of it. so technically you are seeing 50% of the moon
The moon is ALWAYS 50% (+/-) illuminated. Though we only see all of the half lit side when the moon is opposite the sun (Full Moon).
The hightest percentage is 50
68 percent
there is no water on the moon only some ice
you can only see the moon bugy on April 17th.
Quarter Moon.
This is when you can only see half a moon out at night.
No, we cannot See the Moon when it is raining because the clouds will cover the moon and if the cloud is clear only we can see the cloud.
The whole moon is there, but we only see the parts illuminated by the sun. We don't normally see the parts of the moon that are in deep shadow.
We can only see the parts of the moon that are directly in sunlight - this is why we see only part of the moon during its phases as it passes in and out of the direct light of the sun.
Because the sun is only on the right side of the moon.
