How many earth diameters would equal the dis tance from the earth to the moon?
Probably only like one or 2 so because in difference the earth is much Larger than the Moon
What moon phase is found low on the western horizon at midnight?

What direction is a harvest moon in?
Because of the rotation of the Earth, the Harvest moon -any moon- appears to rise in the east to it's zenith, then fall out of sight below the Earth's western horizon. If you are north of the Equator, the moon's zenith is southward. Conversely, if you are in the southern hemisphere, the moon's zenith is northward.
When we are seeing moon in the evening seems to be bigger than the moon seeing in the midnight?
That actually depends. If you notice a full moon on the horizon, it seems bigger compared to other things on the horizon. When you notice the full moon closer to its zenith in the sky, it seems dwarfed by the vast expance of sky. The difference is an optical illusion.

What can you infer from studying the dpths and diameters of craters on the moon?
By studying the depth and diameters of the moon's craters, an impact specialist could determine the size of the object that hit the moon, give a good estimate of the velocity of the object, and approximate where it originated from in the sky.
How many horizons are there?
If you are talking about the geographic idea of horizon, there are infinitely many. Horizon is not a thing or a place, but a relationship between an observer and the thing observed, usually a planet or moon.
