Why does the moon appears to be moving with us?
because it is. it rotates around the earth
Where is the moon when there is a new moon?
The moon is still there it just appears as it is gone because the portion of it that is illuminated by the sun is facing away from us.
What phase of the moon appears completely dark when observed from Earth?
The new moon phase appears completely dark when observed from Earth because the side of the moon illuminated by the sun is facing away from us. This means that no sunlight is reaching the side of the moon that we can see, making it invisible to us.
Which moon phase appears darkest to us?
The new moon phase appears darkest to us because it is positioned between the Earth and the Sun, with its illuminated side facing away from Earth. This means the side of the moon we see is not illuminated by the Sun, making it appear completely dark from Earth.
Can please anybody help me with that the moon gets fuller each night and that star stays with her?
As the moon circles the Earth, the shape of the moon appears to change; this is because different amounts of the illuminated part of the moon are facing us. The shape varies from a full moon (when the Earth is between the sun and the moon) to a new moon (when the moon is between the sun and the Earth). The star only appear to be staying with the moon. They are millions of times more distant than the moon. This movement plus the rotation of the earth is what gives us this affect called "Proper Motion".
Why does a full moon appear white to us on Earth?
A full moon appears white to us on Earth because the sunlight reflecting off the moon's surface is a combination of different colors, which our eyes perceive as white.
What is biger moon or sun?
The sun is much larger than the moon. The sun has a diameter about 400 times larger than the moon, but it also appears larger to us on Earth because it is much closer to us than the moon.
What effect of the moons motion on earth is shown?
The phases of the moon are the different ways the moon looks during the month. As the Moon moves in space, different parts of it face the Sun. This means that different parts of it are lit up. We only see one side of the moon from the Earth because it rotates so that one side is always facing us. The moon phase takes between 29 and 30 days. The phases of the moon appears to be a circular disk, which is illuminated to some degree by direct sunlight.Tides are caused by the gravity of the Moon.
Why can't we see the new moon from earth?
NEW MOONThe new moon is the phase of the moon when the moon is not visible from Earth, because the side of the moon that is facing us is not being lit by the sun.
Why is that during the phase of the moon is full moon why is that lunar eclipse is occur?
AS the moon is in its phases and appears in full (full moon) our planet earth is somewhat away from the connecting line between the moon and and the sun. so it appears to us as full moon. during this phase if our planet earth comes across the line of sight between the moon and the sun, it shadows upon the surface of the moon. we call this phenomina as lunar eclipse.
If the moon does not have its own light and it reflects the light of sun then why does on the day of solar eclipse when the sun is behind the moon the moon appears to be black?
Viewed from Earth the moon appears black during a solar eclipse because we are looking at the dark side of the moon where no sunlight is falling. The sunlight falls on the side of the moon facing the sun. Unless we can see that illuminated side of the moon it will appear dark to us,
Why does moon look to us illuminated?
It appears illuminated to us because we see the reflection of the Sun's light upon it. Some of it bounces back to Earth and to your eye, sensing the light. Only the portion of the moon that is lit by the Sun during a given moon phase will show as illuminated, giving us the images of the half moon, full moon and so on.
