how do you mean? when Galileo was trying to build his telescope he realized that he needed a mirror to reflect the image of the moon so it wouldn't be upside-down when he looked through the eyepiece. If you mean in the sky, the relationship between the earth, sun, and the moon determines what part of the moon is lit. light from the sun is refracted (i may not be using the correct term there, but it's bent) and strikes the moon causing it to appear illuminated, sometimes is looks like a smiley and sometimes like the standard standing banana when it's in its crescent phase
No, the moon is not upside down when it sets. The perception of upside down depends on your location on Earth and the orientation of your perspective.
The upside-down stars on a navy badge represent the North Star. Navigators in the northern hemisphere use the North Star to find their bearings, so the stars on the badge are shown upside down to align with how they would appear when looking at them for navigation.
Wherever you are located, the moon appears the way it does because of the light reflecting off of it from the sun. Ie. The relationship or distance of the moon at your location to the sun renders the frown or the smiley face.
If the angles of the mirrors that you used on periscope are not parallel to each other you would see the image upside down.
A concave lens can make things appear upside down when placed in front of the eye because it diverges light rays. This causes light from the top of an object to converge towards the bottom of the retina and vice versa, resulting in an inverted image.

The moon has not flipped upside down. You are standing on your head.
Upside down and larger.
It would appear reversed, but not upside down. If it does appear upside down, then either the plate is mounted in such a manner.
The 'man in the moon' is upside down, and the moon is still full.
Images formed by concave mirrors appear upside down because the light rays coming from an object converge at a single point (the focal point) after being reflected. This causes the image to appear flipped, with the top and bottom of the object reversed.

Gymnastics is kind of an upside down sport because the handstand you do it upside down and that's the only sport you do upside down flips and etc...
Because Miami is in the northern hemisphere.
