What else can I help you with?
Stars twinkle when you see them because you see them because their light is distorted by earth?
Stars shine steadily, but the atmosphere distorts the point image so that it appears to "twinkle". Planets are not point-sources; they actually have a tiny-but-visible disk. So the atmospheric turbulence doesn't cause planets to twinkle nearly as much.
What phase of the moon are you able to see the most surface area?
At just about any phase, you can see half of the Moon's surface. Close to new moon, however, it may be hard to see the dark side.

What if stars didn't twinkle?
Unlikely. Galaxies form from stars pulling each other together. If there were no galaxies, it would be indicative of a lack of forces between the stars. Which roughly means no gravity. Which also means no us.
What is the tool called that you see stars and the moon with?
A telescope is the tool used to see stars and the moon. Telescopes use lenses or mirrors to gather and focus light, allowing us to see celestial objects that are far away and faint.
Do you see stars twinkle if you live on the moon?
No. Stars twinkle on Earth because the light beams have to enter the atmosphere, altering the brightness of the star by the second. Since the moon really doesn't have a atmosphere, stars seen from there wouldn't twinkle.
Why do stars seen twinkling whereas the moon does not?
The stars twinkle because they're balls of gas burning and making their own light, just like the sun. The moon is a solid rock and it doesn't make it's own light. The light from the sun reflects on the moon and that's why we see it.
Could Neil Armstrong see stars from the moon?
Yes, Neil Armstrong could see stars from the Moon. However, the stark contrast between the bright lunar surface and the black sky made it difficult to see them without a specialized visor or when not looking away from the surface. Astronauts reported that while stars were visible, the conditions of the lunar environment affected visibility.
Can you see the moon and the stars at the same time?
Yes, it is possible to see the moon and the stars at the same time in the sky. The moon is often bright and can outshine the fainter stars, but on clear nights with a waxing or waning moon, you can still see some of the brighter stars in the sky.
Can you see the moon and stars at day time?
You can see the moon sometimes
Why ca you see both the moon and stars in the night sky?

Can you see stars from the moon?

Why do astronauts in orbit around Earth see a black sky with stars that do not twinkle but see a blue earth?
Stars twinkle due to the scattering effect of earth's atmosphere. In space this is no atmosphere, thus they do not twinkle. The sky is black in space because there is no scattering of light as there is in the atmosphere. The earth appears blue from space due to the color of the gases in the atmosphere, and their reflected light on large bodies of water.
Why can't stars be seen from the moon?
Stars can't be seen from the surface of the moon during the daytime because the brightness of the sun overwhelms the faint light of the stars. In the lunar night, stars can be seen, but due to the lack of a significant atmosphere on the moon to scatter the light, they appear much brighter and can make it difficult to see fainter stars.
Is it true that if you sing at night a fairy will come in your bedroom?
