The moon stays up in the sky on average for about 12 hours, just like the sun. It rises in the east, moves across the sky, and sets in the west. However, the exact length of time it is visible can vary depending on its phase and the time of year.
It is always in the sky. When you cant see it, it is simply hiding behind the sun. Jesus is also in on this switcharoo. If you mean how long it is above the horizon, that depends on the moon's phase and the time of year. For example, a full moon in June in the northern hemisphere will be above the horizon for a shorter period of time because the night is shorter, and the full moon is opposite the sun. The flip side is that the full moon will be visible for a longer above the horizon period of time in December, again because the night is longer than the day.
The word "up" when standing on the moon would refer to the direction away from the moon's surface or towards the sky. This is based on the perspective of being on the moon's surface looking away from it.
The moon appears to "go down" when the sun comes up because its position in the sky is influenced by the rotation of the Earth. The moon orbits the Earth just like the Earth orbits the sun, so as Earth rotates, it seems like the moon moves across the sky. When the sun rises, the moon's position in the sky is lower as it follows its own orbit.
The sky appears black on the moon because the moon has no atmosphere to scatter sunlight like Earth. On Earth, the atmosphere scatters sunlight in all directions, creating the blue sky we see. But on the moon, without an atmosphere, there is no scattering of light, resulting in a black sky during the lunar day.

The same reason you have to look up to see the moon when you're standing on earth. From earth, the moon appears to move across the sky, but on the moon, the earth stays in the same spot at all times. This is because the near side of the moon is always pointing to earth while the earth rotates, which gives the moon the appearance of movement across the sky.
The length of time it stays in the sky doesn't change. What changes is the length of time that you can see it.The moon is in the sky for just about the same amount of time every day as everything else is ... the sun, the planets, the stars, etc. Actually almost 25 minutes longer every day than all the rest, on the average.As the moon's position in the sky changes, the length of time it stays up after the sun sets changes.When it's nearest to the sun in the sky ... appearing as a skinny crescent ... it either rises just before the sun, or sets just after the sun.When it's farthest from the sun in the sky (at the time of Full Moon), it rises just as the sun sets, and is in the sky all night.But the truth is that any time the moon is more than half full ... for about the middle two weeks of every full cycle of phases ... it's bright enough to see during the day too, if you know where to look.
It's the same as the sky is brighter when the Sun is up, only not as much.
its pushed up using a twain...
Look up in the sky, it's a bird, it's a plane, no, it's the moon.
The moon is easily seen in the night sky. You just have to look up.
When the Moon can be seen in the night sky, it is because the Sun on the other side of the Earth is illuminating the Moon to an extent where humans can pick it up on their visual scanning apparatus.

There is no year of discovery. The moon is an obvious object in the sky. You can see it just by looking up.
No. It stays a baby forever.
When you see it up in the sky, yes! Venus is the second brightest object in the night sky. Our moon is first.
