Rise/Set Times with Moon Phases

[@bardakasai]

I won't lie, I've heard these explainations dozens of times over a decade of schooling, and I honestly thought I just wouldn't get it with how it was taught so I didn't bother learning something I couldn't understand. But you're explanation is the best thing I've experienced and I honestly actually understand the differences between the phases and why they are different.

Thank you for your kind words.

The best video to explain the moon. Just what I needed when I saw a waxing crescent moon setting today at 10pm!

[@Religious_man]

I'm a student of life. I already know the moon phases, but thank you for providing another perspective of the sun/moon difference. Stuff like this is amazing.

[@nickmauer528]

Holy shit, you're actually the greatest teacher in the world

[@SQUARELUTHULI-p7y]

Human beings are mostly visual... meaning, whenever presented with new information, you have to couple the verbal aspects with practical visuals, in order to have a positive effect on the brain.This is a beautiful video.Thanks.

[@3ekaust]

I have to say this had all been explained to me and i understood the logic but it didn't really click in until i saw it drawn in the way you did (which is why i was searching for the topic on youtube hahahha). This way of putting it was really intuitive to me. Thank you.

[@AlexKurian-z1s]

One of the best explanations of this concept! You're an absolute G!

[@ZiLFred_eros]

Amazing! You are the first who describes it really well. Really grateful for that, couldn't find anything else explaining the different times of moonrise!

Thanks! Your video helped me understand with more depth and structure than before. Suggestion: a brief mention at the beginning of the time duration and direction of the orbit of the moon around earth.

[@twinkchang4097]

The best explanation I had ever seen. Thanks so much❤

[@ninaavila4095]

thank you so very much! i appreciate your style in the way you taught this! i greatly understood and could follow along very well! the slow paced manner of how you took the time to thoroughly & patiently explain every detail, that would other wise seem not important enough to include; was done extremely perfect. especially in the way i learn! after scrolling through various other similar videos. yours stood out to me, although not only because it was the only hand drawn plain & simple one; and the rest were computer animated, colorful, and labeled etc. -my thoughts were mostly consisting about how all that extra jazz is a cause for distractions & really isn't necessary. especially for my ADHD brain lol however, when i saw your video/thumbnail i thought to myself; "that looks like the way i learn" and it was.. thank you for posting this and standing out. i would really appreciate more videos like this! :)

[@EnjoyYourUniverse]

@@DR650-x2j Keep in mind the sheet of paper is not like a map. Rotate the sheet around the image in the direction that the Earth spins, which is counterclockwise as seen from the North, then west will be on the right, unlike a map. The moon rises on the eastern horizon, sets on the western horizon.

[@bhyydy6353]

I have been walking right before the dawn recently and notice the different moonphase and its position. I was wondering why it is that way. and this is the best video I have seen so far. Great job. The only thing i am still wondering is why the earth did not block the sunlight at full moon since it is positioned between the sun and the moon.

[@EnjoyYourUniverse]

@@bhyydy6353 An excellent question. I just addressed that on another post. Here’s what I wrote: The answer is it does sometimes. The drawing makes it look like the orbits of the Earth and Moon are in the same plane, but that’s not entirely true. The Moon’s orbit is tilted about 5-degrees relative to the Earth’s orbit around the Sun. When things line up just right, the Earth blocks the light from the Sun and we see a lunar eclipse. It can also happen that the Moon gets in the way and blocks the Sun from hitting the Earth. That’s a solar eclipse. But for most of the time that’s not the case and we see the Moon go through its normal phases

[@758sportstv]

THANK YOU SIRS💕👍👏

[@BKrystall]

Very interesting. Full moon is my favorite moon phase

[@biology197]

Thank you for this video! It's a great explanation! I have been trying to find information about the impact that latitude has on the moonrise and moonset times and I am having a difficult time finding a good explanation. Any chance you would be willing to try to explain this in a new video? Or do you by any chance know of a video that already does a good job of explaining this? Thanks again!

[@EnjoyYourUniverse]

@@biology197 Thank you for your kind words. The times of moonrise and moonset are certainly going to depend upon latitude, but I am unaware of any videos covering the topic. The overhead view I used in this video is a simplification, perhaps an oversimplification, but it works reasonably well for most northern mid-latitudes. I am unaware of any resources that approach this from different latitudes. It becomes complicated because of the moon’s orbital inclination, which I think would make the times somewhat seasonal as well. This is something not covered in most intro classes, which is about all I teach these days.

[@Wavyprodigy]

thank you for the help, very helpful

[@wanshanz6754]

The only thing most people don’t explain is how come every one gets to see that phase of the moon. And that’s because the earth takes 24 h to rotate while the moon takes about 28 days

[@Happy_so]

Q: When do we usually experience the dark side of the new moon? In the night or in a daylight? I presume daylight according to your well explained drawing. If so correct, then why cant we see the dark moon in the broad day light? Please explain.

[@EnjoyYourUniverse]

You can see the new moon in the daylight, but it is difficult. The new moon is always in the same region of the sky as the Sun, so you need to know where to look to find it without damaging your eyes, and you need a better detector than your unaided eye. Google new moon photos. They’re out there, usually taken with telescopes. But when the moon becomes a thin crescent, then the moon has moved farther from the Sun and it’s easier to see the illuminated side with your unaided eye. You can also see it’s dark side, and with a telescope you can see features on its dark side. This video was made from a naked eye perspective.

[@reginajohnson188]

Can you show how to find out the percentage of the moon 🌚🌝 how would you calculate that thank you 💘 for sharing this information ℹ️ the full moon is always west and New moon 🌑 is east because

[@johannah.t.161]

The explanation was great!Is noon suppose to be zenith time here? But depening on where you live and other things, zenith isnt exactly at noon? How does day length factor in? Thank you!

[@EnjoyYourUniverse]

The times shown are approximate and vary seasonally. Noon is the time when the sun is on your overhead meridian, not necessarily 12:00 on a clock, and probably not at the zenith for most people.

[@adamgarwood651]

For moon phases? Any astronomy textbook will work. Openstax has a free text named Astronomy. Look it up.

[@mee23chelle]

The earth doesn't get in the way of the moon and sun?

[@EnjoyYourUniverse]

@@mee23chelle Good question. The answer is, yes, it does sometimes. The drawing makes it look like the orbits of the Earth and Moon are in the same plane, but that’s not entirely true.

[@peterwilson1295]

Ok, why when I see the Sun up 4-6 hand widths in the east, & the moon northwest the same hight, why isn’t the moon fully lit (full)?

[@EnjoyYourUniverse]

A handwidth is about 10ish degrees. This makes the Sun roughly 45 or so degrees above the horizon and the Moon about the same. That means there are about 90 degrees between the Sun and Moon. You need 180 degree separation for a full moon. The phase described is closer to third quarter than full.

[@athenajesson1555]

Which parts, if any, of this great diagram would be reversed in the southern hemisphere?

[@EnjoyYourUniverse]

@@athenajesson1555 To make the diagram work for the southern hemisphere, just turn the paper face down and redraw all the lines from the backside. The North Pole of earth becomes the South Pole. I think everything else works the same.

[@danpreston564]

This is all based on someone’s view from the equator, right?

[@EnjoyYourUniverse]

Not necessarily, but I would say it best applies to a person who is not too far north. But keep in mind that the times are approximate. Sunrise and sunset are times of day that vary based on location and season.

[@onxyreaper1547]

nooooooo my proffesor put the sun rays on the oppositwe side

Hahaha! Maybe they were drunk that day.

[@fromnorway643]

Maybe your professor explained it 6 months later, when the Earth is on the other side of the Sun and gets lit from the opposite direction. 😄

[@johnguilfoyle3073]

Moonrise. Explain that. I think we've got Sunrise figured out.

[@EnjoyYourUniverse]

Hi John, I’m not sure I understand your comment. This video does address times of moon rise and set.

[@danpreston564]

Moonrise is just the moon coming into view as the Earth rotates. Just like sunrise is the sun coming into view.

[@AS-et2re]

You’re east and west is wrong when finding out the time of the moon, you made me fail my test.

[@EnjoyYourUniverse]

I doubt that. But if it’s true then your professor is the wrong one. Regardless of phase, the moon rises on the eastern horizon, sets on the western horizon, and the 1st quarter moon is on the western horizon at midnight. This is what the video shows. The reversed E and W on the sheet of paper appears the opposite of what you would see on a standard road map, but it is correct for the way the material is presented in this video.

[@AS-et2re]

@@EnjoyYourUniverse yeah I understand now I just flipped the rising and setting I think. Sorry for my misunderstanding.
