Why does the Moon's surface is visible to an observer on earth?
The Moon's surface is visible to an observer on Earth because sunlight reflects off the Moon's surface towards Earth. The amount of sunlight reflected depends on the Moon's position in its orbit, creating the different phases we see from Earth.
Where does the light from the moon come from?
it comes from the sun. The sunlight reflects off of the moons surface, and goes to your eyes.
How Many Moons are there in the night sky?
There is typically one moon visible in the night sky, also known as Earth's moon. However, there can be rare occasions where two moons are visible due to phenomena like a second moon or a passing satellite.
Is more of the Moon's surface visible during a new moon?
No. None of the lunar surface is visible from Earth during the New Moon phase.
Is there a hole in the moon's surface?
Yes, the moon does not have holes like Earth does. However, it does have craters, which are formed by impacts from meteoroids and asteroids. These craters can appear as "holes" on the moon's surface when viewed from a distance.
Why is The moon surface visible to an observer on earth?
Its surface is visible because of how AU's (Astronomical Units) it is away from the Earth.

What is a visible feature on the moons surface?
crators, maria, elevation. those are some things you can see that are visible on the moon.
Is a different part of the moons surface visible at each full moon?
We only see one part of the surface, at any time the moons faces occur.
Where does the light from the moon come from?
it comes from the sun. The sunlight reflects off of the moons surface, and goes to your eyes.

As the moon moves around the earth what does an observer on earth see?
He sees the phases of the moon. A varying amount of the sunlit surface is visible as the moon goes through its phases, having increased or decreased illumination with a curved boundary.
Is more of the Moon's surface visible during a new moon?
No. None of the lunar surface is visible from Earth during the New Moon phase.
How much of the moon do you see from earth at any time?
This depends on where the moon is in its orbit and its position in relation to the sun and the observer and the time of the observation.Theoretically you can see just over half of the moons surface over a period of time due to libration.
Why don't moons have moons?
The moon has plenty of gravity. In accordance with its mass and radius, any object weighs about 16.5% as much on the moon's surface as it does on the Earth's surface.
Is there a hole in the moon's surface?
Yes, the moon does not have holes like Earth does. However, it does have craters, which are formed by impacts from meteoroids and asteroids. These craters can appear as "holes" on the moon's surface when viewed from a distance.
What are the changes in the moons appearance called?
The changes in the moon's appearance are called lunar phases. They occur because of the moon's position relative to the sun and Earth, resulting in different amounts of the moon's illuminated surface visible from Earth.
