What is it called when the moon is fully visible to observers on Earth?
When the moon is fully visible to observers on Earth, it is called a full moon. This occurs when the sun, Earth, and moon are aligned with the Earth in the middle, causing the moon to be fully illuminated by the sun.
What results on earth when the sun and the moon are aligned?
When the sun and the moon are aligned, we experience either a new moon or a full moon. During a new moon, the sun and moon are aligned with the moon between the Earth and the sun, causing the moon to be largely invisible. During a full moon, the sun, Earth, and moon are aligned with the Earth between the sun and the moon, resulting in a fully illuminated moon.
Is there a full moon when the sun is behind and a little above earth?
No, a full moon occurs when the sun, Earth, and moon are aligned with the Earth in the middle. The sun illuminates the entire side of the moon facing Earth, which gives it its full appearance. If the sun is behind and a little above Earth, the moon would not be in the position for a full moon.
Is a full moon when you see the whole moon?
Yes, a full moon occurs when the entire face of the moon that is visible from Earth appears illuminated. During this phase, the sun, moon, and Earth are aligned, with the Earth situated between the sun and the moon.

When the Earth, Moon, and Sun are aligned in that order, a lunar eclipse occurs.

This alignment typically happens during a full moon, when the Moon is directly opposite the Sun in the sky.
