Why is it possible for the moon to disappear from the sky every month?

The moon does not disappear from the sky every month. What we observe as the moon "disappearing" is actually the result of its changing phases as it orbits Earth. During the new moon phase, the side of the moon facing Earth is not illuminated by the Sun, making it appear invisible in the night sky.


Why does the moon disappear at certain times of the month?

The moon is above your horizon and in your sky for about 12 hours 25 minutes out of every 24 hours, on the average. That means that it's in the sky for at least part of every day and at least part of every night. There are a few reasons why you might not notice it: -- You're not looking at the right time or in the right place. -- The phase of the moon may be a crescent so slender that it's hard to find in a daytime sky. -- It may be the time of "New Moon", when none of the moon's lighted side faces earth, and the moon isn't visible even though it's 'up'.

Is a full moon everyday of the year?

You can not see the whole moon every day or (night). The moon does not shrink, or disappear. It is just the place and angle you are at, because you can not see it.


Why is a day on the moon equal to a month on earth?

It really does not, but it is close to a month. The moon always faces the same way to the earth as it goes around the earth. So the Moon day is the same as its orbit around the Earth, Roughly 29 days.
