No, you would not expect to see auroras on the Moon as you do on Earth. Auroras are caused by interactions between the solar wind and a planet's magnetic field and atmosphere, which the Moon lacks. While the Moon does have a very thin exosphere, it does not possess a significant magnetic field to create the conditions necessary for auroras. Therefore, any potential auroral phenomena on the Moon would be vastly different and much less visible than those on Earth.
What else can I help you with?
Why dont you see auroras on the moon?
The moon has an extremely weak electromagnetic field, so solar wind does not get caught in it like it does in Earth's. Even if the moon did have a substantial electromagnetic field, it has no atmosphere for the solar wind to react with to produce auroras.
What would you have to do if you wanted to see the Moon's waning crescent phases?
You would have to wait until after the moon is full. Then, the moon is in its waning phase and you can see it!
What can be seen on earth at night from the moon?
Very little, you will see the planet Earth, and depending on the amount of light available and cloud cover you may be able to see the continents at best, the moon is too far away to see any more detail with the naked eye.
Right half of moon is illuminated.?
When the right half of the moon is illuminated it would be called first quarter. (That's when you see the Moon from the northern hemisphere.)
How would the Moon appear to an observer in space during its revolution Would phases be observable Explain?
During the Moon's revolution, an observer in space would see the moon, but would not be able to see it spin around. From far to the north, about the solar system, the moon would appear to make a squiggly
If you see quarter moon where the right side is lit would you expect that the moon will soon be full or new?

Why don't we see auroras on the moon?
The auroras we see on Earth are a result of Earth's magnetic field funneling high-energy particles from the sun into Earth's upper atmosphere, where excited electrons in gas molecules create a glow. The moon has no magnetic field and no atmosphere.

Which type of eclipse would you expect to see at night?
Lunar Eclipses are visible from the entire NIGHT half of the Earth.
When can you see auroras?
In the north and south poles.
What kind of moon can people expect to see during a lunar eclipse when Earth is between the moon and the sun?
During a lunar eclipse when Earth is between the moon and the sun, people can expect to see a "blood moon." This is because the Earth's atmosphere scatters sunlight, allowing only red light to reach the moon, giving it a reddish hue.
Is it possible to forecast an aurora borealis?
We can't forecast auroras with any precision, but if you visit SpaceWeather.com, you'll see when the conditions are especially good for one. For example, if a coronal mass ejection (CME) from the Sun strikes the Earth, auroras are quite likely, even if we cannot predict exactly WHERE they will be visible.However, auroras also sometimes appear even when we don't expect them, when no solar storm is in progress.
How often has the Aurora Borealis been sighted in Graves County KY?
It would be quite unusual to see auroras as far south as Kentucky, but it has happened; at the peak of the last sunspot cycle, there were auroras in Florida!
What would you see on earth if you were positioned behind the Moon's umbra?
you would see who and what is built on the moon.
What type of eclipse would be seen on the moon if earth experienced a total lunar eclipse?
In this case, from the Moon you would see a total solar eclipse.In this case, from the Moon you would see a total solar eclipse.In this case, from the Moon you would see a total solar eclipse.In this case, from the Moon you would see a total solar eclipse.
Why can t you see the borealis and australis here in the Philippines?
Auroras are usually confined to arctic (and antarctic) regions near the magnetic poles. The Philippines is a tropical nation. It would be extremely unusual for auroras to be visible in the Philippines.
'When a full moon occurs if there were people on the moon would they see a 'full' Earth'?
Not necessarily. Think about it... if you can see a full moon in the middle of the night, then someone on the moon would be able to see your part of the earth.... which would be in darkness.
