What else can I help you with?
Why does the appear to move?
The sky does not move and you must be complete looney.
What is the position of the person on the earth when he sees new moon?
When a person on Earth sees a new moon, that means the moon is positioned between the Earth and the Sun. This alignment results in the side of the moon facing Earth to be in shadow, making it appear as if there is no moon visible in the sky.
What is the map of the stars as seen from the moon?
There's only one difference between the sky seen from the Earth and the sky seen from the moon. The sky seen from the Earth has a moon in it, and the sky seen from the moon has an Earth in it. Other than that, exactly the same objects in the same patterns are seen from both places.
How big would the earth be to people living on the moon?
To someone living on the moon, the Earth would appear much larger than it does to those on Earth. It would look about 3.7 times bigger in the sky as seen from the moon.
Why does the earth always remains in about the same position in the lunar sky?
The Moon rotates once per orbit, and has the same side of the Moon always facing the Earth. So looking at the Earth from the Moon, it's always in pretty much the same place.Because the Moon rotates at a constant speed but follows an elliptical orbit, there is a little variation; over the course of several months, the Earth would appear to "wobble" a little in the lunar "sky", and would appear to get somewhat smaller and larger as the Moon recedes from the Earth and then gets closer.
From Earth why does the moon appear to be the largest object in the sky?
The moon is the closest object to Earth.
Why does the moon move across the sky?
The moon moves across the sky because of the Earth's rotation on its axis. As the Earth rotates, the moon's position relative to an observer on Earth changes, causing it to appear to move across the sky.
Why does the full moon rise into the sky?
The full moon rises into the sky due to the Earth's rotation. As the Earth rotates on its axis, different parts of the planet, including our location, come into view of the moon, causing it to appear to rise in the sky.
What is the realation between earth and sun during a full moon?
During a full moon, the Earth is positioned between the Sun and the Moon. The Sun is illuminating the side of the Moon that faces Earth, making it appear fully lit from our perspective. This alignment causes the Moon to appear bright and full in the night sky.
What is colour of sky when viewed from the moon?
The color of the sky on earth would still appear blue but the "sky" around you would be black
Why does the appear to move?
The sky does not move and you must be complete looney.
Why do the earth and moon appear the same size?
The Earth and Moon appear the same size in the sky when viewed from Earth because the Moon is about 1/4 the size of Earth and is about 1/4 as far away from Earth as the Earth is from the Moon. This alignment creates the illusion that they have the same apparent size.
Why does the Moon appear as a bright object in the sky?
The moon is lighted by sunlight. That's why when the Earth is between the sun and the moon the shadow of the Earth causes the Moon to be entirely dark (a lunar eclipse).
Why does the moon appear to change over time in the sky?
the moon never changes, the Earth seems to change it because of rotation
What is the region of the sky where the moon and planets appear?
The Moon, Sun and planets all appear in a strip of sky called the ecliptic. It is a plane defined by the plane of the Earth's orbit and the Sun is always on the ecliptic, while the Moon and planets stay close to it.
Why does the moon appear to change shape in the night sky?
The moon appears to change shape in the night sky because of its position relative to the Earth and the Sun. As the moon orbits the Earth, different portions of its illuminated surface are visible from our perspective, creating the phases of the moon.
What makes the moon appear as if it were changing shape in the sky?
The changing shape of the moon in the sky is caused by its position relative to the Earth and the Sun. As the moon orbits the Earth, different portions of its illuminated surface are visible from our perspective, creating the appearance of different moon phases.
