The temperature on the near side of the Moon varies significantly, ranging from about -173 degrees Celsius (-280 degrees Fahrenheit) during the lunar night to approximately 127 degrees Celsius (260 degrees Fahrenheit) in direct sunlight during the lunar day. These extreme temperature fluctuations occur due to the Moon's lack of an atmosphere, which means it cannot retain heat. The near side experiences these temperatures similarly to the far side, as both are subject to the same solar exposure.
What else can I help you with?
What is the temperature of the sunny side of the moon?
it is about 273 degrees on the sunny side of the moon.
When did you see the dark side of the moon?
you see the dark side of the moon when you see half the moon. because there is always a full moon but you only see some of it exept when there is a full moon
The Moon's near side always faces earth due to what?
The Moon's near side always faces Earth due to synchronous rotation, which means it takes the same amount of time for the Moon to rotate once on its axis as it does to orbit Earth. This causes one side of the Moon to always be facing us.
What do you call the Moon's surface that faces earth?
The Moon's surface that faces Earth is called the near side. This side of the Moon is what we see from Earth and is the side that is always facing towards us due to its synchronous rotation with Earth.
Is the near side of the moon the dark side?
"the near side of moon is not dark" this is not entirely correct answer. there are infact many times when the near side of the moon is dark throughout the year. the moon has day and night cycles aswell as other forms of darkness. first off, a full moon seen on earth is when the sun shines light on the moon without the earth being in the way to cast a shadow on the surface. however a Crescent Moon is the moon being partially shadowed by the earth, so the near side is actually dark because the earth is blocking out the sun light to it. also depending on the position of the moon the far side gets the light and the near side wont. this is because the sun is stationary and the moon goes around the earth. there will always be a light side and dark side of the moon just like there is on earth a day and night but you have to remember that its not night all around earth at the same time, same goes for the moon. also the dark side of the moon generally refers to the far side, which is not always dark.
Why does the phases of the moon effect us?
if we are near the full side of the moon, the temperature will drop. If you notice, when we have anew moon, it's a bit warmer. In a word, magnetism. (Gravity)
Is the far side of the moon similar to the near side of the moon?
Yes.
What is the name of the front of the moon and the back of the moon?
The near side and the far side .
What is the temperature of the sunny side of the moon?
it is about 273 degrees on the sunny side of the moon.
We see what sides of the moon?
you see the near side of the moon.
What phase is the moon in when you can see the entire near side of the moon?
Full Moon
How many percent illuminated is full moon?
There are two separate things that need to be addressed. One is the surface area of the Moon. The other is the surface area of the NEAR SIDE of the Moon. As a sphere in space, the Moon is always 50% illuminated, except during lunar eclipses. The phases of the Moon measure what percentage of the NEAR SIDE of the Moon is illuminated. At the new moon, none of the near side is lit up; at the full moon, 100% of the near side is illuminated.
What do you call the side of the moon that you always see?
The near side.
When did you see the dark side of the moon?
you see the dark side of the moon when you see half the moon. because there is always a full moon but you only see some of it exept when there is a full moon
