Why do planets have phases similar to lunar phases?

The planet Venus has phases similar to the moon's phases because of its orbit around the sun, inside the orbit of the Earth. Because of its particular orbit, an observer from the earth is?æable to see various phases.

Why does Venus have phases like the moon?

You know how the moon rotates around the Earth, and has phases because of the suns rays hitting its crust? Its the same with Venus. You know that Venus revolves around the sun, right? But did you know that it also has phases? Its true. Anyway, Venus's phases are just like the moons. I don't know why Venus has phases, but I sure do know how.;)


During crescent phases the sun earth moon is at a what degree angle?

During the moon's crescent phases, the earth is at the vertex of an acute angle formed with the sun and moon. Another way to look at it is that during the crescent phases, the moon is always less than 90° away from the sun in our sky. Also, it rises and sets within 6 hours of the sun.


What causes the lunar phases that we see from earth?

The lunar phases are caused by the relative positions of the Earth, Moon, and Sun. As the Moon orbits Earth, different portions of its illuminated half become visible from our perspective, leading to the phases we observe. These phases range from new moon, when the Moon is between the Earth and Sun, to full moon, when the Earth is between the Moon and Sun, with various crescent and gibbous stages in between.

Can you see the moon phases in space?

The phases of the moon are caused by the relative positions of the sun, the moon and the observer. It is possible to see phases of the moon in space depending on your position relative to the sun and the moon.


Do the phases of the moon depend on the sun?

What effects the phases of the moon?

The phases of the moon are primarily influenced by the relative positions of the sun, moon, and Earth. As the moon orbits Earth, different portions of its illuminated side are visible from Earth, creating the different moon phases. The gravitational pull of the sun and Earth also play a role in shaping the moon's phases.
