No, it is not. This will seem wrong to people who are aware that the moon's orbit it tidally locked with earth. Observed over a long enough period, the moon has a distinct wobble that comes from what is called libration. It results from the fact that the moon's orbital velocity around the earth is not constant, while the moon's rotational velocity is for all practical purposes constant. So the earth will appear to move a bit in the lunar sky. This is an apparent motion and not a true motion. It occurs to me that there must be places on the moon where the earth would appear, over the course of a lunar cycle, unable to decide whether to rise or to set! It would appear to bob up and down at the moon's horizon.
What else can I help you with?
Name the stationary star?
There is no stationary star anywhere in the universe.
Is Earths crust stationary?
Earth is constantly moving. The Earth spins on its axis (which is why the Sun appears to be moving across the sky). Earth is also orbiting round the Sun. Then the seasons, Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter, are created by the tilting of the Earth.
What are the Esperanto words for earth and sky?
The Esperanto words for earth and sky are tero and ĉielo.
What outer planet can be seen from earth without the aid of a telescope?
Jupiter is the outer planet that can be seen from Earth without the aid of a telescope. It is the fourth brightest object in the sky and is visible to the naked eye.
What is the line where the earth and the sky called?
The line where the earth meets the sky is called the horizon. It is the apparent line that separates the Earth from the sky when viewed from a specific point.
Why does the Moon appear as a bright object in the sky?
The moon is lighted by sunlight. That's why when the Earth is between the sun and the moon the shadow of the Earth causes the Moon to be entirely dark (a lunar eclipse).
Why does the earth always remains in about the same position in the lunar sky?
The Moon rotates once per orbit, and has the same side of the Moon always facing the Earth. So looking at the Earth from the Moon, it's always in pretty much the same place.Because the Moon rotates at a constant speed but follows an elliptical orbit, there is a little variation; over the course of several months, the Earth would appear to "wobble" a little in the lunar "sky", and would appear to get somewhat smaller and larger as the Moon recedes from the Earth and then gets closer.
What color is the lunar sky?
The lunar sky appears black, similar to the night sky on Earth, due to the lack of atmosphere on the moon. This means there is no scattering of sunlight to create the blue hue we see during the day on Earth.
From Earth why does the moon appear to be the largest object in the sky?
The moon is the closest object to Earth.
Where can you see the lunar eclipse?
Any place on earth where it's night-time during the lunar eclipse and the sky is clear.
What happens in a lunar eclipses?
A lunar eclipse is when the earth casts a shadow on the moon. and when it is funny and you see something funny in the sky...!
Name the stationary star?
There is no stationary star anywhere in the universe.
What is the lunar perigee?
The side of the orbit of the moon that is closest to the Earth is the lunar perigee.
What is the nearest object in the sky nearest to earth?
The Moon
From earth is the moon the brightest object in the sky?
No. The Sun is
How much area do lunar eclipses cover when they occur?
When a lunar eclipse is in progress, it's visible from any point on earth where the moon is in the sky, i.e. nominally 1/2 of the earth.
Were and when do you see a lunar eclipse?
A lunar eclipse occurs whenever the moon passes through the earth's shadow. The phenomenon is visible from any place on earth where the sun is down and the sky is clear at the time.
