The Moon does not orbit the Sun; it orbits the Earth. The Earth orbits the Sun.
No The moon roates around the earth. The earth rotates around the sun within the solar system.
We earthlings experience days and years.
The Earth neither spins round the Sun nor the Moon. The Earth rotates(spins) on it own axis, top give us night and day. The Moon revolves (orbits) round the Earth once a month (Moonth). The Earth and Moon, as a binary system revolve (orbit) round the Sun once a year. The Moon making 13 orbits of the Earth in once a year.
a retrograde rotation, meaning it rotates in the opposite direction compared to its orbit around the Sun.
-- The Earth rotates on its axis in roughly 4 minutes less than 24 hours.-- The Moon revolves around the Earth AND rotates on its axis in 27.32 days.-- The Earth revolves around the sun once a year.
Answer 1) They all move. But the moon moves around the earth which goes around the sun which is spinning.Answer 2) Both move. The sun rotates on a fixed point. The moon rotates arounds a fixed point and also rotates around the Earth.
Actually all moves. The sun rotates on its axis. The earth rotates on its axis and revolves around the Sun. The moon revolves around the earth
No The moon roates around the earth. The earth rotates around the sun within the solar system.
Yes. The earth rotates around the sun. The moon rotates around the earth. What make the moon bright is sun light reflecting off its surface. When the moon is full, the side that is facing the earth is also facing the sun, thus the entire moon is lit. As the moon rotates around the earth, the side facing the earth turns away from the sun and isn't illuminated as fully; the moon moves to the next phase.
The Sun stays still while the Earth rotates on its axis while revolving around the Sun. The Moon rotates on its axis while revolving around the Earth.
a planet because other masses rotate around it. a satellite rotates around another mass, ie: our moon rotates around us, making the moon our satellite. the sun doesn't rotate around other masses making it a planet
The moon takes about 27.3 days to orbit around the Earth, not the sun. This period is called the sidereal month.
Because the earth rotates around the sun, and the Moon rotates around the Earth, so we are constantly changing our position as we rotate.
The Moon orbits the Earth, so, because the Earth makes a full orbit around the Sun once every 365.25 days, the Moon does as well.
Because the moon rotates around the sun and not the other way around. The sun is made up of fire ( therefore red) and the moon space dust so it's blue.
As the moon rotates around the earth the sun reflects off of the moon at different angles(as it may be blocked by the earth). The moon's glow, remember, is only a reflection of the sun's shine.
