What moon lies between the sun and earth so the side of the moon facing earth is dark and the moon is not visible?
The new moon phase occurs when the moon lies between the sun and Earth, with the side facing Earth in shadow. This position causes the moon to be not visible from Earth as the illuminated side faces away.
Which is the only historical monument which can be seen by the naked eyes from the moon?
The Great Wall of China is the only man-made structure that has been claimed to be visible from the moon with the naked eye. However, this is a myth and astronauts have confirmed that it is not visible from the moon without aid.
When The moon is fully visible to observers on Earth?
When the moon is fully visible to observers on Earth, it is said to be at its full moon phase. This occurs when the sun, Earth, and moon are aligned in a straight line, with the Earth in between the sun and moon. The full moon appears as a complete circle and is the brightest phase of the moon.
Why the visible moons shape changes?
Only the half of the moon that is illuminated by sunlight will be visible; the other half is dark. Because the relative positions of the Earth, moon, and sun are always changing, the viewer on Earth will see varying amounts of the illuminated half of the moon.
What is waning crescent and what causes it?
A waning crescent is a phase of the moon where only a small sliver of the moon's illuminated side is visible from Earth. This occurs as the moon travels in its orbit around the Earth and the angle between the sun, Earth, and Moon changes, causing less of the illuminated side to be visible.
What The moon lies between the sun and earth so the side of the moon facing earth is dark and the moon is not visible?
The New Moon is when the lit side of the moon is facing away from Earth, and only the dark side is visible.

Why is the moon only visible from earth?
The moon is only visible from Earht because the moon orbits Earth. If the moon had orbited a planet like Venus, then you can see the moon from Venus. Also, the moon is always orbiting the Earth. The reason why you can't see it in the daylight is because the sun has a brighter light. If there was no sun, you would only see the moon. So when the sun comes around, the moon and the stars will be in the same place, just, invisible.
Are all parts of the earth affected by eclipses?
Solar eclipses are visible only for a small portion of the Earth's surface where the moon covers the sun. Lunar eclipses in which the Earth's shadow covers the moon are visible for long distances but it's the color of the moon effected by those not the Earth.
What other moon can you see from earth?
Our moon is the only moon visible from earth with the naked eye. With a good personal telescope, it is possible to see 4 of Jupiter's moons.
Why is the eclipse only visible from certain areas?
That's because a solar eclipse is caused when the Moon gets between the Earth and the Sun, blocks the Sun's light when viewed from Earth, and casts a shadow on Earth's surface. The Moon's shadow on Earth's surface is very small, and the moon only aligns with the Sun when viewed from a small area, so a total eclipse only happens for a very small region. If you're outside that shadow, the sky won't go dark, and the Moon won't completely block the Sun's disc, but you will see the Moon cover at least part of it. A lunar eclipse, on the other hand, is visible across the entire night side of Earth.
Why the visible moons shape changes?
Only the half of the moon that is illuminated by sunlight will be visible; the other half is dark. Because the relative positions of the Earth, moon, and sun are always changing, the viewer on Earth will see varying amounts of the illuminated half of the moon.
What are the differences between solar and lunar eclipses?
A solar eclipse happens when the moon (that is passing between the sun and earth) covers the sun. At same point, the sun will only be partially visible (parcial eclipse) or will not visible at all (total eclipse). A lunar eclipse happens when the earth is between the sun and the moon. When sunlight hits the earth it projects a shadow and, if the moon is somewhere in the area of that shadow, it will not be visible.
What is waning crescent and what causes it?
A waning crescent is a phase of the moon where only a small sliver of the moon's illuminated side is visible from Earth. This occurs as the moon travels in its orbit around the Earth and the angle between the sun, Earth, and Moon changes, causing less of the illuminated side to be visible.
