When the moon is not quite full, the missing bit can be found in the shadowed portion of the moon, which is illuminated by sunlight. This creates the crescent or gibbous shapes we see during different phases. The unlit part is often a darker area, contrasting with the bright section, and is sometimes faintly visible due to Earth's reflected light.
What else can I help you with?
Where can the missing bit be found when the moon is not quite round?
The missing bit is found during a lunar phase called the crescent moon, where the illuminated portion of the moon is less than half. The missing portion is not visible to us on Earth, as it is facing away from the sun.
When the moon is not round where can the missing bit be found?
The missing part of the moon during its various phases is not "found" elsewhere; rather, it is due to the changing positions of the sun, Earth, and moon relative to each other. The moon appears to change shape as different portions of its illuminated side are visible from Earth.
Can the moon change its position?
I'm not quite sure if this is what you mean, but the moon revolves around the earth in an elliptical pattern, not a circle, and it also rotates as it does this. So yes the moon can change its position.
Far where on the moon have the youngest rocks been found?
The youngest rocks on the moon have been found near the Apollo 11 landing site in the Ocean of Storms region. These rocks are estimated to be around 1.2 billion years old, much younger compared to the overall age of the moon.
Is the moon on a axis with earth?
Yes, the moon does have an axis of rotation, but it is not tilted like the Earth's axis. The Moon's axis is nearly perpendicular to the plane of its orbit around Earth. This means that the Moon's poles do not experience the same seasonal variations as Earth's poles.

When was Missing the Moon created?
Missing the Moon was created in 1991-08.
Where is the moon found?
The moon can be found in space. Moons will orbit around planets that have moons. Earth has one moon that gives four different phases each month.
Is the moon's orbit the same as the earths orbit around the sun?
not quite. The moon circles the Earth, which circles the sun. So the moon's orbit around the sun isn't a smooth track, but consist of a wave like pattern.
Why don't solar eclipses occur every time the moon revolves around earth?
The moon's orbit is tilted relative to Earth's orbit around the sun. As a result during most full moon and new moon phases the sun, moon, and Earth are not quite perfectly aligned.
Aliens on the moon?
No. The moon is quite barren.
Is it possible for the sun to be found inbetweeen the earth and the moon?
No. The Moon orbits the Earth. If the Sun DID get between the Earth and the Moon, then we would not be around to report it.
What material was found on the moon?
Moon rocks were found on the Moon.
Why is earth missing the moon every now and then?
The earth is never missing the moon. It just looks like it is not there. It is probably just hiding behind some clouds or something.
When will Moon show at Darwin cinema?
