When the sun, a planet, and another body are lined up in a row, it is called inferior conjunction.
From the other body, the planet's disc sometimes seems to move across the Sun's disc, and this is called a transit of that planet.
When the Sun and Moon cross paths, it's called a Solar Eclipse. If the Sun is in front of the Earth and the Moon is behind, then it's called a Lunar Eclipse.
that is a waning moon.
When the gravitational pulls of the sun and moon partially cancel each other out, Earth experiences a neap tide.
The moon changing phases. Phasing as some call it.=====================================A waining moon. (The opposite - when the moon gets bigger each night is called a waxing moon).
The visible shape of the moon is called its phase. The moon goes through different phases as it orbits the Earth, such as new moon, first quarter, full moon, and third quarter. These phases are determined by the position of the sun, Earth, and moon in relation to each other.
When the Sun and Moon cross paths, it's called a Solar Eclipse. If the Sun is in front of the Earth and the Moon is behind, then it's called a Lunar Eclipse.
To Mission Control and to each other, they were called "Neil" and "Buzz".
The moon crosses the equator twice each lunar month due to the moon's change of declination.
that is a waning moon.
It's called a "full moon", or if they are TRULY opposite each other, it's an eclipse.
When the gravitational pulls of the sun and moon partially cancel each other out, Earth experiences a neap tide.
The month the full moon the called harvest moon is October.
He didn't cross he jumped over the moon?
our moon is called lunar
The moon changing phases. Phasing as some call it.=====================================A waining moon. (The opposite - when the moon gets bigger each night is called a waxing moon).
Because the gravity of the SUN and the MOON are pulling at 90 degrees to each other and not with each other.
