Well, honey, the moon doesn't have time to play favorites. It rises at different times and locations in the sky depending on the phase of the moon and your location on Earth. So, no, it doesn't rise at the same time and place every night. It's a celestial dance, not a strict schedule.
What else can I help you with?
How long is the synodic period of the moon?
The synodic period of the moon, which is the time it takes for the moon to return to the same phase as seen from Earth, is about 29.53 days. This is the time between two identical phases of the moon, such as two full moons or two new moons.
Can you have a full moon in both hemispheres on the same day?
Yes, when the moon is full, it is full everywhere that day. Only one side of the earth is turned toward the moon at any given time, meaning that only one side can see the moon until the earth turns.
Why do we see only one side of the moon at all times?
The moon is tidally locked to the Earth, meaning that it rotates on its axis in the same amount of time it takes to orbit the Earth. This causes the same side of the moon to always face towards us as we observe it from Earth.
What is the elevation?
This depends on your latitude, the moon's phase, the moon's position with respect to the Earth and sun and the time of year. Where I live in north London, and at the time I write this (Monday, 22nd July 2013), the moon is very close to full and is about 23 degrees above the horizon.
Since the earth's shadow creates the crescent moon why does the moon not look like a crescent after 7 days?
Your assumption is not correct. The crescent moon has nothing to do with the shadow of the earth falling upon the moon. The moon being obscured by earth's shadow is a relatively rare event, and it is known as a lunar eclipse. Furthermore, during a lunar eclipse the passing earth shadow does not show as a sharp edge on the moon's surface. The crescent moon shapes that you typically observe over the course of a month are a result of the fact that earth's view of the moon is changing, and as our view changes, we see more of the lit surface of the moon or less, depending on where we are in the month. The moon orbits the earth once every month in its west-to-east orbit. During the same time, the earth is spinning on its axis west-to-east once every 24 hours. This is why the sun, moon and stars all appear to rise in the east. During our nighttimes, we watch the moon slowly progress from lunar noontime (at the time of the full moon, for an observer at the center of the moon's face) to lunar midnight (at the time of the new moon when the view of the moon is obscured by the brightness of the sun) and back to lunar noon at the next full moon. We can sometimes observe the very fine first crescent of the moon shortly after the time of the new moon, after sunset. The moon's orbit around the earth is not in the same plane as the earth's orbit around the sun. This means that the earth's shadow never touches the moon during most months. Now and then, and only at the time of the full moon, the earth's shadow will pass over some or all of the full moon during what is called a lunar eclipse. These eclipses last for a few hours at most.
Does the moon rise at the same time and in the same location in the sky?
that would make an eclipse. so no
Why would you choose this topic does the moon rise every night at the same time and in the same location in the sky?
No. Moonrise can occur day or night. The moon is not related to the sun at all. Since our way of measuring time is relative to the sun, the moon does not rise at the same time every time.
What time does the moon rise in Tennessee?
The time the moon rises in Tennessee can vary depending on the specific date and location within the state. You can check online resources like timeanddate.com or use smartphone apps that provide real-time data on the moon's rise and set times based on your location.
What is moon rise?
Moon rise refers to the time when the moon appears above the horizon and becomes visible in the sky. It happens every day as the moon orbits around the Earth. Moon rise times can vary depending on the phase of the moon and your location on Earth.
What is the rise time of a New Moon in Alamogordo NM?
Since the new moon is between the Sun and the Earth, it will always rise at sunrise, whatever the time of sunrise is at any particular location.
What time does the moon rise in 32408?

Does the moon rise at the same time the same location?
no it slows down a tad so it changes that's why on weather.com it says sunrise at 7:09 Am and another day it says 6:59 AM =)
Does the moon rise the same time each day?
No, the moonrise time changes each day due to the moon's orbit around the Earth. The moon rises about 50 minutes later each day, so it does not rise at the exact same time each day.
Does the moon rise at the same time at the same place?
No. It constantly changes, because it is always moving.
What time will the full moon rise tonight?
Each night the moon rise changes, So.... If you go to timeanddate.com, you can select a location in the drop-down menu and see times for moonrise and moonset in that location.
