What is the 5th phase of the moon?
Waxing gibbous, a day or two from the Full. The First Quarter moon rises about noon, the Full Moon rises about 6 PM, and the 3rd Quarter moon at about midnight.These APPROXIMATE times are for "standard" time, not DST.
What is the phase of the Moon if it rises at 3 AM?
The 3rd quarter moon rises at average around midnight. For the mid-north latitudes it balances from cca 10 PM (September; north-east) to 2 AM (March; south-east). It culminates around 6 AM (often is writen at sunrise, but sunrise balances from 4 AM to 8 AM, so that is better to wite/say"6 AM". It rides low in March, intermediate in June and December and high in March. It sets around 10 AM (March; southwest), noon (June and December; due west) and 2 PM (September; northwest). Moonrise retardation and orientation: In March and September), in time of moonrise/moonset the Moon's orbit makes intermediate angle with horizon (angle same as the celestial equator does), so time of moonrise/moonset varies by cca 50 minutes (it's an average) and it's orientation is also intermediate. When the Moon culminates, it stands due upright. In June and December the Moon rises due at midnight and due east. But notice great difference of retardation and orientation (they are at extreme values). The reason is angle between Moon's orbit and horizon. In June, the orbit makes shallow angle and the Moon rises SLIGHTLY later night-by-night and it stays rather upright). But in December, Moon's orbit makes a steep angle with the horizon and the Moon rises CONSIDERABLY later night-by-night and it look like "U". Notice also orientation of Last Quarter Moon when it culminates. Only in March and September it stays due upright (see above). In June, it is inclined to west and in December to East.
How are the moon phases formed?
The phases of the moon are caused by the earth's shadow being cast by the sun on to the lunar surface. As the moon rotates around the earth, and the earth rotates around the sun, the way the earth's shadow is cast gradually changes. These changes follow a very precise pattern, and so we can accurately predict them on our calendars.
What The time of day of first quarter moonrise?
Donald J. Barry answered on November 30, 1999, A: If the moon is visible in the western sky after sunset, then it is near the sun in the sky (because the sun also sets in the west). In this configuration, the sunlight falls mainly on the back side of the moon as seen from the Earth, and we only see a crescent of light on the thin region visible from both the sun and the earth. If the moon is rising as the sun is setting, then the two objects are nearly opposite one another in the sky. So we view the moon from the same vantage as the sun would (it would be as if one person (the sun) were looking over another's shoulder (the earth) at a third person (the moon). Anywhere the sun shines on the moon, we see. So the moon looks full.
What moon occurs about 3 days before new moon?
For roughly the last 5 or 6 days before the New Moon, the "waning crescent" moon rises in the east just before the sun, getting skinnier each morning than it was on the morning before. The majority of normal people never see this, because it's only visible just before sunrise.
What phase of the moon is the 1st quarter?
"First Quarter" is the phase when the moon appears half-illuminated, and rises and sets roughly 6 hours (1/4 day) after the sun.
What time does the sun rises and sets October 5 2009?
The sun rises at 6:54 AM and the sun sets at 6:29 PM in the Eastern Time Zone in the United States.
What time does 3rd quarter moon rise?
The time of day that the Moon rises or sets depends on its phase. This should be obvious when you remember that the phase of the Moon depends on the relative positions of the Sun, Moon and Earth. For example when the Moon is Full it is opposite the Earth from the Sun, so when the Sun sets, the Moon must rise and vice versa. Here is a table summarizing that: Moon phase Moonrise Moonset New Moon Sunrise Sunset 1st quarter Local noon Local midnight Full Moon Sunset Sunrise 3rd quarter Local midnight Local noon By local noon and local midnight I mean the points when the Sun crosses the meridian, and exactly 12 hours later. This can be different from the time on your watch because we define time zones which all use the local time at the centre of the zone.First Quarter moon rises one quarter day after the sun, or around Noon.Around noon, plus or minus a bit depending on where in your time zone you live.
What moon rises at 4 in the morning?
The waning crescent, during the week before the New Moon,rises 6 hours or less before the sun.
What moon sets 2 to 3 hours after the sun sets?
The full moon typically sets 2 to 3 hours after the sun sets. This phenomenon occurs because the full moon rises as the sun sets and sets as the sun rises due to their positions in the sky opposite each other during a full moon phase.
If a crescent moon rises in the east how will it appear in 6 hours?
full
What phases of the moon are the moon and the sun visible in the sky?
Strictly speaking, the exact moment of "Full Moon" is the only time when the sun and moon can not bein the sky at the same time ... the Full moon rises just as the sun sets.At every other moon phase, the sun and moon are in the sky simultaneously during SOME part of the day.New Moon: Sun and moon are in the same direction in the sky. As long as one is up the other is up,but you can't see the moon, so forget about it.First week: Moon rises after the sun, a delay that grows from zero to six hours during the week.Then they're both in the sky until the sun sets.Second week: Moon rises after the sun, a delay that grows from 6 hours to 12 hours during the week.Then they're both in the sky until the sun sets.Full Moon: Moon rises just as sun sets.Third week: Moon rises before the sun, a lead that dwindles from 12 hours to 6 hours during the week.Then they're both in the sky until the moon sets.Fourth week: Moon rises before the sun, a lead that dwindles from 6 hours to zero during the week,Then they're both in the sky until the moon sets.

What is the phase of the Moon if it rises at 3 AM?

During crescent phases the sun earth moon is at a what degree angle?
During the moon's crescent phases, the earth is at the vertex of an acute angle formed with the sun and moon. Another way to look at it is that during the crescent phases, the moon is always less than 90° away from the sun in our sky. Also, it rises and sets within 6 hours of the sun.
What time does the moon come out in Canada?
The moon takes about 25 hours to circle the earth, so just like any place in the world, the moon rises about an hour later each night. During the full moon, it rises just about sunset and when the moon is new, it rises with the sun. There are 6 time zones in Canada and this needs to be factored in as well.
