It doesnt point anywhere it is constantly rotating. But it is pulled by the earth.
an eclipse is the blocking of the sun by the moon, or the moon by the earth, a solstice is a point of the year when the earth's tilt is most toward or away from the sun
This is the answer------ A massive planet exerts a tidal force on a moon that causes the moon to align itself such that its tidal bulges always point toward and away from the planet.
Assuming you start with "new moon", the halfway point is "full moon". It's not a "gibbous moon".
Gravity exists throughout the universe and at every point in it. Because of the existence of gravity everywhere, there is a pair of forces that attracts every pair of masses toward each other.
Yes it is
Only by accident. A comet's tail will point away from the sun.

Waxing
Moon's gravitational force

Gravity
point E is when it clears from a whole moon to a half moon.
Third quarter moon
Earth
The force of gravitation attracting the earth and moon toward each other is exactly the same force on both bodies.Just as the force of gravitation that attracts you toward the earth is exactly the same as the force that attractsthe earth toward you.
The Moon's phase starts at the new moon as it waxes and then wanes, so the mid point will be the full moon.
