What else can I help you with?
The sunlit fraction of the moon that you can see from the earth is getting larger?
This indicates that the moon is waxing, meaning it is transitioning from a new moon to a full moon. As the days progress, more of the moon's sunlit side becomes visible from Earth.
What is it called when the sunlit fraction of the moon that we can see from earth gets larger?
It is the waxing phase.
As the sunlit fraction of the moon gets larger, we say the moon is what?
The gibbous moon appears to grow fatter each night until we see the full sunlit face of the Moon. We call this phase the full moon. It rises almost exactly as the Sun sets and sets just as the Sun rises the next day. The Moon has now completed one half of the lunar month while orbiting earth. Hope this helps!
Is Orion getting larger?
No, Orion is not getting larger. The Orion constellation appears to change position in the sky due to the Earth's rotation, but its physical size remains constant.
What are the shapes of the moon sunlit portions called?
The shapes of the moon's sunlit portions are called phases. The main phases include the new moon, crescent, first quarter, gibbous, full moon, and their corresponding waning phases. These phases result from the relative positions of the Earth, Moon, and Sun, which change as the Moon orbits the Earth.

What depens on how much of the sunlit side of the moon faces the earth?
The brightness depends on that.
Why univers is getting bigger but earth not?
The universe is getting bigger because more and more objects are being discovered. The earth will never get any larger.
Which moon phase cannot be seen from earth?
the New Moon is difficult to see from the earth since the sunlit side of the moon is turned away from the earth.
Is Orion getting larger?
No, Orion is not getting larger. The Orion constellation appears to change position in the sky due to the Earth's rotation, but its physical size remains constant.
When is the moon considered new?
when the moon is considered new, the sunlit side of the moon is not visable to the earth
What time does the waxing gibbous moon rise?
Because of the Earths' rotation the moon will always rise in the east no matter what its' phase.
What part of the moon would you see depends on how much of the sunlit side of the moon faces earth?
