The Moon

Moon Facts The moon is the only natural satellite of Earth. The moon is the brightest object in the night sky. The Moon is on average 384390 km from Earth

The Moon rotates around its axis and orbits around Earth at the SAME RATE, once every 27 days. This means that the same side of the Moon is always facing Earth! The Moon's surface is heavily marked with impact craters. So many are visible because the Moon has no atmosphere or surface water, so the craters do not weather as they do here on Earth.

Tides The Moon and its gravitational pull are the cause of the oceans tides. Twice each day the ocean's waters rise or fall with the pull of the Moon.

Highest Tides in the World The highest tides in the world occur in The Bay of Fundy in Nova Scotia

Phases of the Moon How the Moon appears to us depends on the position of  the Earth, Moon and Sun. There are four main phases of the Moon: new moon, first quarter, full moon and last quarter. Each phase of the Moon last for about one week.

Phases 5. Waning Gibbous 1. Waxing Crescent 6. 3rd Quarter 2. 1st Quarter 7. Waning Crescent 3. Waxing Gibbous 4. Full Moon

Why do we see different Phases?
