Why dont you see the new moon?
The moon does not emit any light, the only reason why we see the moon at night is due to the sun reflecting off it. When there is a new moon the earth is exactly in between the moon and the sun, thus no sunlight reaches the moon as a result it is dark and cannot be seen in the night sky
Does Jupiter have Auroras?
Yes Jupiter does have aurorae. This is because Jupiter has a magnetic field that can attract the electrically charged particles emitted from the Sun, as well as the charged particles given off by Jupiter's volcanic moon, Io. The auroral emission is caused by electrically charged particles striking atoms in the upper atmosphere from above. The particles travel along Jupiter's magnetic field lines. This is the same mechanism that causes auroras on Earth
What can you not see a full moon or a waxing moon or a waning moon?
You can see all three of these. The phase of the moon when it is not visible is called new moon.
Do solar flares from the sun cause auroras near earths poles?
Magnetic storms unleashed by solar flares can cause auroras, but all solar flares don't cause auroras.
Do auroras occur on other planets?
Auroras can occur on other planets and have been observed on several of them including Venus, Jupiter and Saturn. According to the Geophysical Institute of the University of Alaska auroras can form on any planet that has an atmosphere and is bombarded by energetic particles. As such all planets in our solar system are subjected to energetic particle bombardment due to the polar wind so any that have a dense enough atmosphere will have the potential for the formation of aurora. Further to this, they also state that the intensity of the aurora will be dependent on the strength of the planets magnetic field. According to NASA some of the largest auroras occur on Jupiter (which has auroras larger than the diameter of Earth) and it is unusual in that solar winds are not required as Jupiter (and its moon Io) is able to create its own charged particles and an intense electric field at it's poles. Currently NASA believe that volcanic activity on Jupiter's moon (Io) ejects oxygen and sulphur ions (O+ and S+) into Jupiter's spinning magnetic field. It is the rotation of this magnetic field that creates the very high electrical charge at Jupiter's poles. This interaction of the electric field and the charged particles from Io ultimately causes the majority of Jupiter's aurora. Please see the related links for more information.
Why dont you see auroras on the moon?
The moon has an extremely weak electromagnetic field, so solar wind does not get caught in it like it does in Earth's. Even if the moon did have a substantial electromagnetic field, it has no atmosphere for the solar wind to react with to produce auroras.
Would you expect to see auroras on the moon?
No, you would not expect to see auroras on the Moon as you do on Earth. Auroras are caused by interactions between the solar wind and a planet's magnetic field and atmosphere, which the Moon lacks. While the Moon does have a very thin exosphere, it does not possess a significant magnetic field to create the conditions necessary for auroras. Therefore, any potential auroral phenomena on the Moon would be vastly different and much less visible than those on Earth.
What causes auroras on the moon?
Auroras on the moon are caused by the interaction of the solar wind and the moon's surface. Charged particles from the solar wind interact with the moon's magnetic field, resulting in auroras. However, the moon's lack of a significant atmosphere means the auroras are much fainter than those seen on Earth.
Why do we see moon on earth?
i dont know what do you think
Why does it seem like the moon isn't always in the sky?
Why dont we always see the moon
When can you see auroras?
In the north and south poles.
What is round but not always sometimes you see it sometimes you dont?
The moon
What phase of the moon is hardest to see?
The new moon phase is the hardest to see because it is not visible in the sky. During this phase, the moon is positioned between the Earth and the Sun, with its dark side facing Earth, making it invisible from our perspective.
What can be seen on earth at night from the moon?
Very little, you will see the planet Earth, and depending on the amount of light available and cloud cover you may be able to see the continents at best, the moon is too far away to see any more detail with the naked eye.
Can we only see the full moon at night?
I think we dont becuse somtimes you can see it like around 7:00pm and am
Why dont you see the new moon?
The moon does not emit any light, the only reason why we see the moon at night is due to the sun reflecting off it. When there is a new moon the earth is exactly in between the moon and the sun, thus no sunlight reaches the moon as a result it is dark and cannot be seen in the night sky
Why dont you see moon and stars in day?
You do see the moon in the day time. About 14 days out of 28 days you see the moon between sun-up to sun-set at any given spot on the Earth. Different 14 days for diffrent locations on the Earth.
