The moon's "orbital period" is the length of time it takes the moon to make one
complete revolution around the earth. That period of time is about two days less
than the time it takes for the moon to go through all of its phases.

Months! A blue moon is when there are 2 full moons in 1 month.
What is FULL STOP called in Canada?
FULL STOP means period. In Canada it is called.. Full Stop because Canadians speak english.
What date is Three weeks after the first full moon after the autumnal equinox?
When that happens would be on a different date each year, as full moons do not happen on the exact same date each year, so there is no precise answer to your question.
How many seconds in a day on the Moon?
The Moon is "tidally locked" and always has the same face turned to the Earth. So, the rotation period equals the orbital period. The Moon rotates once (a sidereal day) per 27.321582 Earth days. So, that's the length of the Moon's "sidereal day". The "daylight" is about 14 days long, and the nights are about the same length. (If you're on the "near side" of the Moon, then the lunar night is at least sort-of illuminated by the nearly full Earth, which is WAY brighter than the full Moon.) So the answer is: about 2,360,580 seconds.
Will the next blue moon happen over the US?
Blue Moons aren't like solar eclipses - they don't just happen to a certain part of the Earth. A blue moon is just the name for the event where a full moon happens twice in the same month; The second full moon in that month is called a "blue moon". You can see the moon from anywhere on the Earth in a 24 hour period, so yes, the next blue moon will happen "over" the US.
How many full moons will there be in a 90 day period starting after the next full moon?
the answer is 2
Are the moons on Jupiter always full?
No, they will have phases similar to our own moon bit on different timescales due to their varying orbital periods.
How many moons will occur in 2014?
The question is a little vague; I'm going to assume you mean full moons. The synodic period (the time between two full moons) averages 29.53 days, which works out to about 12.4 of them per year. In any given calendar year there are either 12 or 13 full moons. 2014 is a "12 full moons" year; 2015 will have 13.
How many full moons were there in 1982?

The full moon IS the orbital stage of the full moon....
How many full moons are in 100 years?
That would be 1,200 full moons at a rate of 12 full moons per year.
What is the full form of p orbital?
A full p orbital contains 6 electrons.
If the Moons orbital plane were exactly aligned with the ecliptic plane?
If the Moon's orbital plane were exactly the same as the ecliptic, there would be solar eclipses at every new moon and lunar eclipses at every full moon. They would be ordinary, and we would lose our sense of wonder about them.
Is half and full filled stability theory also applicable for f orbital like d orbital?
in d orbital and f orbital there is a full filled & half fulled stability
How many full moons happen on a leap year?
A leap year, like normal years, usually has 12 full moons, but can have 13 full moons.
The element argon is the last element in its period What does this tell you about?
Since argon is the last element in its period, it is a noble gas. This means that it has a full outer shell of electrons (specifically a full p orbital), and is not very reactive (at all).
