Aim: How can we describe the Moon Rocky surface with: Lunar highlands Maria (smooth dark areas) Many craters

Apollo missions 12 astronauts walked on The Moon Neil Armstrong was the first

No water or atmosphere

Formation Formed from the impact of the Earth and another large object (size of Mars)

Why does the moon look like it changes Phases of the Moon Caused because The Moon is revolving around the Earth and only half of the Moon is ever lit up by the Sun Why does the moon look like it changes

What is the moon’s rotation and revolution? Rotation = 27.3d Revolution = 27.3d What does this mean? Only one side of the moon ever faces earth BUT 29.5 days between full moons. Why? the Earth orbits around the sun, so the moon must travel through an extra distance to make one orbit with respect to the Sun.

Lunar Eclipse A lunar eclipse occurs when the shadow of the Earth falls on the moon. Moon Sun Earth

Lunar Eclipses can only happen during a FULL moon phase!!!

Umbra Penumbra Sun Earth

Sunlight Uneclipsed Moon Penumbral Eclipse Total Lunar Eclipse Partial Lunar Eclipse

(Note the ruddy scattered sunlight) Total Lunar Eclipse (Note the ruddy scattered sunlight) Partial Lunar Eclipse

Solar Eclipses A solar eclipse happens when the Moon blocks our view of the sun. This happens when the Moon is exactly between the Sun and the Earth. Moon Sun Earth

Solar Eclipses can only happen during a NEW moon phase!!!!

Tides Affected by The Moon’s and the Sun’s gravity Difference between high tide and low tide is about 3 m

How does the moon affect tides? Pulls the water towards it during high tide. The opposite side of the earth experiences low tide 2 high tides and 2 low tides every day. About 6 hours apart

How does the moon affect tides? Spring tides occur when the moon is closest to the earth (perigee) and during new and full moons Neap tides occur when the moon and sun are perpendicular during quarter moons

Sloshing of the oceans is causing the Earth to slow down in its rotation 1 Earth day a hundred million years ago was equivalent of 12 hrs today 1 Earth day in a hundred million years from now will be 42 present days long

The Moon experiences tides from the Earth as well Creates frictional drag The Moon has slowed its motion down to a 1:1 resonance with the Earth This means that the rate of rotation is equal to the rate of revolution (the same side of The Moon always faces the Earth, hence the dark side of The Moon). This is called tidal locking.
