You can only see a full moon at night because its position in the sky is opposite to the sun. At most other phases of the moon, it can be seen during the daytime as well. A new moon cannot be seen during daytime because it is in the same part of the sky as the sun but on rare occasions, the new moon may pass in front of the sun. This is called a solar eclipse.
After the first quarter moon comes the waxing gibbous moon. The waxing gibbous moon appears as the illuminated portion of the moon grows larger each night until it reaches a full moon.
Check a calender but I believe a full moon.
Last quarter moon comes after the full moon
Because this is how the moon cycle works: MOON---EARTH---SUN=full moon EARTH---MOON---SUN=new moon. So, when you see the moon during the daytime, it's because its orbit is interfering with the Sun's. But during a full moon, when the moon is behind the Earth, it cannot interfere. See?
The shining of the moon at night is the reflection of the sun bouncing off the surface of the moon. That is why we on Earth can see the moon appear as shining. For me: At day time when the sun heats the moon, the moon become hot by the energy absorbed and for anything that is hot it radiates light to some extent somehow our eyes can only receive light for wave length about 400 nm to 700 nm, and that light radiated from moon has low intensity from light radiated from the sun, we cannot see moon light at day time. At night, we can easily see the moon light since no longer exist light from the sun. Therefor, anything when it is being heated, it radiates light eventually. And for this, certainly, we can store the sun light at day time and use it at the night time, don't you think so?
zero the full moon only comes out at night!
Because she comes out hunting (being the Goddess of the Hunt) at night when the moon is out.
It comes out on the 20th of November 2009.
This is when you can only see half a moon out at night.
why is the moon only show in the night?
The eclipse that occurs only at night or night of a full moon in particular is the Lunar Eclipse. The eclipse only happens when the sun, Earth, and the moon are aligned the Earth in the middle.
When the sun rises and when the sun goes down and the moon comes up in the night ?:)
After a new moon comes the waxing crescent moon phase. This is when the moon slowly begins to show a crescent shape as it waxes or grows larger each night.
After the first quarter moon comes the waxing gibbous moon. The waxing gibbous moon appears as the illuminated portion of the moon grows larger each night until it reaches a full moon.
The moon is not always visible at night. If the moon is in conjunction with the sun, it will be a "new moon" and will be very hard to see. Waning crescent moons cannot be seen at night, only in the morning.
You are probably looking at the moon with a different perspective each night, but the face of the moon doesn't change; Only the lighting of the moon changes.
because it feels like it
