Yes, the brightness of the moon is the sun reflecting light off of the moon's surface so te sun reaches the moon.
When a solar eclipse happens the moon is in front of the sun. So you see the shadow of the moon you do not see the reflection of the sunlight though. The only thing you see is the shadow of the moon and the sun's corona.
At new moon, the Moon is right next to the Sun - that is, you see it in the same direction, more or less. At new moon, the Moon rises together with the Sun.
You see just that part of the moon that the sun is shinning on.
Moonlight is reflected sunlight. When the moon and sun are on opposite sides of the earth the face of the moon we can see is illuminated and it is a full moon. When the sun and moon are on the same side of the earth then the side of the moon away from us is illuminated.
During a quarter moon, we see half of the moon's surface lit up by the sun. This is because the angle between the sun, Earth, and moon creates a line where we see only half of the illuminated side.
We can see the sun and the moon because when Aston outs givbe the moon the satallitte you can see it
We are not able to see the moon because the light reflection coming off of the sun but when the sun goes down we can see the moon perfectly because there is no sun reflection
The new Moon "phase" is when the Moon is (more or less) in front of the Sun. We cannot normally see the Moon in this phase. If the Moon is exactly in front of the Sun, the Moon covers the Sun and we see a solar eclipse.
We see the moon because it reflects the sun's light.
We see a crescent moon.
the moon is in the opposite of the sun
sun and moon different sun bigger, farther, hotter, heavier, brighter than moon sun all gas, moon all rock people been to moon, no people been to sun you can see moon day or night, but you can't see sun at night
We see phases of the Moon because we see the Moon by the Sun's light reflected off it. As the Earth and Moon orbit each other, the Sun-Moon-Earth angle changes, and we see different portions of the Moon's day side. The Sun is a star, so it shines with its own light and so there is no dark side.
lunar eclipse which is the moon blocking the sun
as the earth moves so does the moon and where the earth orbits the sun and the moon orbits earth as the earth moves around the sun the sun projects light and it hits the moon and we can see the light from the sun reflecting off the moon
Because this is how the moon cycle works: MOON---EARTH---SUN=full moon EARTH---MOON---SUN=new moon. So, when you see the moon during the daytime, it's because its orbit is interfering with the Sun's. But during a full moon, when the moon is behind the Earth, it cannot interfere. See?
The moon gets full because.... When the sun is on the side of the moon facing away from Earth you cant see the moon. When the sun is on the side facing the Earth you can see the full Moon! it basically relies on where the sun is positioned.
