We will see a new moon
What else can I help you with?
Where is the moon located at tonight?
The moon's current location in the sky can vary depending on your location and the time of night. You can use a stargazing app or website to track the moon's position based on your specific location.
What causes phases of the moon to change in the same pattern every 29 days?
The moon's phases result directly from the moon's synodic period, the length of time it takes for the moon to move from one location relative to the sun back to the same location relative to the sun after orbiting earth. This connection with the sun makes perfect sense since the phases of the moon have everything to do with its appearance to us in terms of how much or how little of its visible surface is illuminated by the sun.
When the moon and sun are on the opposite sides of earth and on the same line then what may you see?
You will definitely see a New Moon, and you may see a Solar Eclipse, depending on the relative positions of the Sun and Moon, and your location on the Earth.
Where is the moon located in the sky?
The moon isn't located in the sky - It is actually in space and rotates around the Earth. If you are talking about its location in where you can see it in the sky at a certain time, say the time in your question.
Can you see the moon phases in space?
The phases of the moon are caused by the relative positions of the sun, the moon and the observer. It is possible to see phases of the moon in space depending on your position relative to the sun and the moon.
Where will it be relative to its current location 100 years from now?

Where can you find a website showing not the phases of the moon but the relative placement of the moon in the sky?
The relative position in the sky (relative to the Sun) is completely related to the phase. For example, at full moon the Moon will be opposite the Sun (an angle of almost 180 degrees), at new moon it will be near the Sun (an angle near zero degrees), and at half-moon it will be at a 90 degrees angle.
When can a full moon not transit?
It cannot transit relative to any location that is in daylight.

What is ment by the term relative location?
It means the place something is located in relation to something else. Which really means any kind of location when you come to think of it--even degrees of latitude or GPS readings are given in relation to the earth's poles or equator. You could talk about location relative to the moon or the sun if you wanted to.

Why are solar eclipses visible from a much smaller part of Earth than lunar eclipse?
Because the Earth is much larger relative to the Moon than the Moon is relative to the Sun. In a total solar eclipse the Moon will only just cover the Sun so a slight change in position means that you will only see a partial eclipse whereas the Earth will cause a much larger shadow relative to the Moon so a difference in location will not affect it so much.
Can you see the moon phases in space?
The phases of the moon are caused by the relative positions of the sun, the moon and the observer. It is possible to see phases of the moon in space depending on your position relative to the sun and the moon.
What type of moon will you have tonight?
I am a computer program, so I do not experience the night sky or moon phases. However, you can check the current moon phase in your location by using a weather app or a moon phase calendar.
Where does the moon rise in the northern hemisphere?
In the northern hemisphere, the moon generally rises in the east and sets in the west, just like the sun. However, the precise direction can vary slightly depending on the moon's position relative to the Earth's axis and the observer's location.
