When was the moon closest to the sun it is at?
* When Earth is at periapsis (closest to the Sun, in January), Earth, and therefore the Moon, are closer to the Sun than when Earth is at apapsis. * On average, at new moon the Moon is closer to the Sun than at full moon, since at full moon the Moon is opposite to the Sun in the sky.
Which is the smallest planet out of the Earth the Sun and the Moon?
The moon is the smallest out of the Sun,Earth and moon. It should be note, though, that neither the sun nor the moon are planets; the sun is a star and the moon is a natural satellite.
Where the sun be in the moon phase transporter?
In the context of the Moon phase transporter, the position of the Sun relative to the Moon determines the phase of the Moon we observe from Earth. During a New Moon, the Sun and Moon are aligned, with the Sun illuminating the far side of the Moon. In contrast, during a Full Moon, the Earth is positioned between the Sun and the Moon, allowing the Sun to illuminate the side of the Moon facing us. The Moon phases progress as the Moon orbits Earth, with its position changing in relation to the Sun.
In what aligment of sun moon and eath does lunar eclipse occur?

Can you see sun from moon?
Yes, the brightness of the moon is the sun reflecting light off of the moon's surface so te sun reaches the moon.
Why does the orbit earth as opposed to the sun?
Assuming you meant 'Why does the moon orbit earth as opposed to the sun?'The moon is still quite mysterious to us and there are multiple possible theories out there regarding its creation. But the moon is a natrual satellite of the earth, same as the moons of the other planets in our solar system. The currently accepted theory of how the moon came to be is that another planet, similar to Mars, collided with Earth in the early solar system, resulting in debris and rocks forming in orbit around our planet, later forming into the shpere that is our natrual satellite. As the moon was formed around Earth and pulled into our orbit, it stayed there, as Earth's gravitational pull is stronger than than that of the moon.
During a full moon where is the sun?

What happens when the moon passess between the sun an earth?

What is a non example of the sun?
A nonexample of a sun would have to be the moon.

What does the moon have that the sun and moon don't have?
The moon has a gravitational effect on Earth that causes tides, which is not caused by the sun. Additionally, the moon has a surface with craters and mountains, while the sun is a ball of hot gases without a solid surface.
Does the moon orbits or circles the sun?
The Moon orbits the Sun. The gravitation of the Earth will provide slight disturbances to the Moon's orbit around the Sun, but mainly, the Moon moves around the Sun.The Moon orbits the Sun.
