Why does the moon rise and set 50 minutes later each day?
The moon rises and sets about 50 minutes later each day because it orbits around the Earth approximately once every 27.3 days. This means that as the Earth rotates on its axis, the moon appears to move across the sky from east to west, causing it to rise and set at different times each day.
Does the moon rise and set every day?
Yes, unless you happen to be in the Polar Regions where there are days where the moon never rises/sets. The moon rises at a different time each day due to it's constant orbit around our planet.
Do the moon rises?
Yes, the moon rises in the east and sets in the west, just like the sun. Its rise and set times vary each day.
Do constellations rise and set like the sun and the moon?
Yes. It's not the sky that's moving, it's the Earth (well, the Moon does move also, but MOST of the apparent motion of the stars, Sun and Moon come from the rotation of the Earth ... the Moon's actual movement acts to reduce its apparent motion, since it's actually travelling from west to east. This is why it rises a little later each day).
What day did neil Armstrong set foot on the moon?
Neil Armstrong set foot on the moon on July 20, 1969.
What time does the moon rise and set each day?
About 50 minutes later every day.
Do the moon set and rise at the same time each day?
No. The Moon tends to rise about 50 minutes later every day.
Why does the moon come up later the night after the full moon?
The moon orbits the earth, therefore it will always be in a different spot each day or night so will rise later each day by 48 minutes. This also affects what time the moon will set and when it will reach it's highest point in the sky.

The sun is ahead of the moon in the sky during waxing phases what time would a 10 old moon set if the sun set at 7pm?
The Moon sets about 50 minutes later each day. At the "new moon", the Moon and Sun are very close together in the sky, and rise and set together. 10 days later, the Moon rises (and sets) about 8 hours after the Sun does. So the Moon 10 days after the new would be waxing gibbous, and would set around 3 AM.
How many minutes later does the moon rise or set each night?
Approximately 50 minutes.
How much later does the Moon rise and set each day?
There are some relatively small variations in that number during the course of a month. But on the average, over a complete cycle of phases, the moon rises 48.76 minutes later each day than it did the day before. (24 hours in 29.53 days).
What time does a three day old moon set?
The new moon sets when the Sun does, somewhere near (depending on the season) 6 PM. (Earlier in the winter, later in the summer, and this doesn't count Daylight Savings Time where applicable.) The Moon "moves backwards" about 12 degrees per day, rising and setting about 45 minutes later each day. So a 3-day old Moon, 3 days past the new, will set about 8:30 PM, VERY roughly, and depending on the declination of the Moon at that point. If you want an accurate answer, the U.S. Naval Observatory's Sunrise/Sunset calculator can provide precise-to-the-minute computations, requiring only the date and your location.
How much later does the moon rise and set in Brisbane?
How much later than where ?
Does the moon rise and moon set occurr at the same time each day?
I found a really good site on the Navy site to answer this question. Year (table)http://aa.usno.navy.mil/data/docs/RS_OneYear.php Plug in your town, use the drop-down bar to select moonrise/sets, sunrise, etc. Simple answer is, the moon rises and sets about 1 hour later every day. :)
Do the moon always rise when the sun set?
No. Just observe the Moon for a few days!Due to the Moon's orbit around the Earth, every day it will rise approximately 50 minutes later than the day before. For example, at full moon, it will rise more or less at sunset; at new moon, it will rise and set together with the Sun.
Does the moon rise and set every day?
Yes, unless you happen to be in the Polar Regions where there are days where the moon never rises/sets. The moon rises at a different time each day due to it's constant orbit around our planet.
