Phases of the Moon

Anudari Batjargal our phases aren't caused by the earth's shadow, but 7 translucent disks that also cause our solar eclipses. The ancient cultures and Asian religion call it rahu or black sun.

[@ok-zf1sd]

since the earth rotation is tilted by 23.5 degrees and the moon's is tilted by 5 degrees, cant we slightly see some part of the dark side of the moon as the phases go on? i feel dumb asking this so im really sorry for my idiocy and bad english

[@michaelwalsh3980]

Definitely not a dumb question! In fact a very intelligent intuitive question. Yes, we do see a small portion of the "Dark Side" of the Moon throughout its normal phases, we call this libration. And there are three types of libration. It permits an observer to see slightly different portions of the surface at different times. It is similar in both cause and effect to the changes in the Moon's apparent size due to changes in distance. It is caused by three mechanisms two of which are causing a relatively tiny physical libration via tidal forces exerted by the Earth. Such true librations are known as well for other moons with tidal lock rotation. Libration in longitude: results from the eccentricity of the moon's orbit around Earth; the Moon's rotation sometimes leads and sometimes lags its orbital position. The lunar libration in longitude can reach +/_ 7°54′ in amplitude. Libration in latitude: results from a slight inclination (about 6.7°) between the Moon's axis of rotation and the normal, to the plane of its orbit around Earth. (Its origin is analogous to how the seasons arise from Earth's revolution about the Sun). It can reach +/_ 6°50′ in amplitude. Diurnal libration: is a small daily oscillation due to Earth's rotation, which carries an observer first to one side and then to the other side of the straight line joining Earth's and the Moon's centers, allowing the observer to look first around one side of the Moon and then around the other-since the observer is on Earth's surface, not at its center. It reaches less than 1° in amplitude.

[@ok-zf1sd]

@@michaelwalsh3980 thank you very much! it looks like they dont teach you this in 6th grade, i couldn't really find a detailed answer on the internet without knowing that it's called "libration" and i was really afraid of getting turned down but instead i got a really helpful and detailed answer! i cant thank you enough mister michael!

[@fromnorway643]

The effects described by Michael Walsh allows us to see up to 59 % of the Moon's surface in total, but never more than 50 % at any given time - and less than that when the Moon isn't full.

[@sailorman8668]

@@ok-zf1sd If at all possible, never refer to the far side of the moon as the dark side. The side of the moon that never faces earth, does in fact receive just as much sunlight as the near side, so calling it the 'dark side' is rather non-sensical.

Yes, you can use it in your class. The moon's phases are created the same way. The moon's position and orientation is just different depending where you're located. YOu don't hear people on the equator complaining, nor those in northern Sweden.

How can you say that the Moon orbits and 'spins' at the same rate? In your opinion the Moon spins around its axis? If so if the Earth orbited the Sun facing it permamently with the same side, would you also say the Earth spins around its axis?

[@kitcanyon658]

Yep. That’s correct. Fortunately we spin faster than our orbital speed around the sun and thus we don’t keep the same fades towards it.

Planets and other moons and asteroids also have a phase cycle too like Jupiter has a phase cycle if you want to one of Jupiter’s moons you will see Jupiter but as the moon orbits Jupiter you will see the phase cycle of Jupiter like: new Jupiter, waxing crescent Jupiter, first quarter Jupiter, waxing gibbous Jupiter, full Jupiter waning gibbous Jupiter last quarter Jupiter waning crescent Jupiter and then new Jupiter.

@Kit Canyon Your first pharagrafe is wrong. i citate: "the new moon is up in the sky not too far from the sun" the distance from the moon to sun compared when the moon is closest to the sun or furthest away is verry small (and i am not saying flat earth BS here, the sun is just that far away: sun is 149.600.000 km away from earth and the moon 384.400 km. if you do the math the difference is verry small) for pharagrafe 2: i think you can see the new moon in the sky cuz you can see it in the sky XD but in my first post where i asked how the hell we could see a new moon when its on the opposite side of the earth the answer is: we can see a new moon verry short. the time between moon rise and moon fall is verry short beceause of the angle you can only look at it before there is an earth in the way :) when its a new moon, you will never see that moon at midnight

[@sailorman8668]

@Kit Canyon Actually, it is very easy to see a new moon on some occasions. Quite often, the sun has set below the horizon, but the new moon is still above the horizon. The earth is a VERY reflective celestial body, and it's the earthshine that will illuminate the near side of the moon during the new moon phase, making it very obvious in the twilight sky. If you think moonlight on earth can be very bright at times, then imagine how bright 'earthlight' must be on the moon.

As explained at 3:16, it is said that the new moon will rise the same time as the Sun rises. I saw that from Bob's view, the new moon should make a partial lunar eclipse. So why does it happen occasionally? I'm a kid, don't judge me.
