tonight you see the moon at midnight at its highest point in the sky. What is the phase of the moon? three hours later, what phase will the moon be in?
The angle of the lit portion of the moon relative to the horizon changes. For example, sometimes the crescent moon looks like a crooked smile; other times it looks like a hat cocked at an angle. The lit portion of the moon doesn't really rotate, so why does it look like it does? What is REALLY happening?
The new moon is the first phase of the moon. During the day, a new moon
is between the sun and the Earth. It's daytime, so we usually can't see it.
Then, at night, the moon is on the other side of the Earth. Because the
moon is not lighting up the sky, this is the best time to see stars and
constellations.
New moon
Which of the following best describes the relationship between the new moon phase
and constellations?
During the new moon phase, constellations take on different shapes due to a lack
of moonlight.
During the new moon phase, constellations are on the same side of the earth as
the sun.
huring the new moon phase, constellations are easier to see due to a lack of
moonlight.
During the new moon phase, constellations are easier to see due to increased
sunlight.
