What else can I help you with?
Is sun rise or moon rise when the sun or moon breaks the horizon or is it when the entire sun or moon is visible to the naked eye?
It is when the sun or moon breaks the horizon. And sunset and moonset happen when the last bit (trailing limb) goes below the horizon.
What is the phase of the moon when the sunset is near the horizon?

When can you see a new moon?
A new moon is typically visible to the naked eye only briefly after sunset, when it appears low on the western horizon as a thin crescent. However, it can be difficult to spot due to its proximity to the sun's glare.
Is it be impossible to see any object the distance of the moon or the moon?
Our eyes can only see as far as the horizon, due to the curvature of the Earth. For instance, an observer standing on a hill 100 feet (30 m) in height, their horizon is at a distance of 12.2 miles (19.6 km). Obviously, without the restriction of a horizon, we can look out far into space on a dark night and see our moon and many stars and planets with the naked eye - even better with a telescope.
Why does the moon appear larger on the horizon?
The moon appears larger on the horizon due to an optical illusion called the moon illusion. This occurs because our brain compares the size of the moon to objects on the horizon, making it seem larger in comparison.
High Tide Moon position?
the moon in on the horizon =)
Why does the moon appear bigger when it is closer to the horizon?
The moon appears bigger when it is closer to the horizon due to an optical illusion called the "moon illusion." This occurs because our brain compares the size of the moon to objects on the horizon, making it seem larger in comparison.

Once a year the moon appears larger?
Actually, the Moon appears larger when it is at the horizon. This is every time you happen to see it near the horizon, but it is only an illusion.Actually, the Moon appears larger when it is at the horizon.

What causes the moon horizon illusion, and why does it appear as though the moon is larger when it is near the horizon?
The moon horizon illusion is caused by our brain perceiving the moon as larger when it is near the horizon due to the Ponzo illusion. This optical illusion occurs because our brain interprets the moon as being farther away when it is on the horizon, surrounded by objects like trees or buildings. This makes the moon appear larger in comparison to the objects in the foreground, even though its size remains the same.
Why does the moon appear larger when it is closer to the horizon?
The moon appears larger when it is closer to the horizon due to an optical illusion called the "moon illusion." This occurs because our brain compares the size of the moon to familiar objects on the horizon, making it seem larger in comparison.
