>>0 >>1 >> 2 >> 3 >> 4 >> The Moon’s Surface No atmosphere No liquid water Extreme temperatures –Daytime = 265°F –Nighttime = -310  F 1/6 Earth’s gravity

>>0 >>1 >> 2 >> 3 >> 4 >> Lunar Features craters- holes more on far side, caused by meteoroids maria- dark, flat plains on the moon highlands-mountains

>>0 >>1 >> 2 >> 3 >> 4 >> How the moon was formed? The moon is only ¼ the size of Earth! Collision Theory- “Born” 4-5 billion years ago Formed from impact of Mars-sized asteroid into Earth. Debris from both objects melted together to form the Moon

Vocabulary Terms Phases – One of the different apparent shapes of the moon as seen from earth.

>>0 >>1 >> 2 >> 3 >> 4 >> Other Terms related to Phases of Moon Moon Cycle/Lunation Waxing Waning Gibbous Crescent First Quarter Third (Last) Quarter

>>0 >>1 >> 2 >> 3 >> 4 >> 1.As a table group, arrange the moon phase cards in the order you would see them during the moon's cycle (28days). 2.On the left side of your INB of page # 23, write the number of the cards in the order you have arranged in a circle just like you see during the moon’s cycle. 3.Write the labels for New Moon, First Quarter, Full Moon, Third quarter, waxing crescent, waxing gibbous, waning gibbous, and waning crescent

>>0 >>1 >> 2 >> 3 >> 4 >> Since humans have walked the earth, we have stared at the changing moon with wonder. But what really causes the appearance of the moon to change so drastically ? Depends on the position of all three: moon, the sun and the earth.

>>0 >>1 >> 2 >> 3 >> 4 >> The sun is the center of our solar system. The Earth is revolving around the sun as the year goes by and rotating on its axis. The moon is the first milestone on the road to the stars. - Arthur C. Clarke

>>0 >>1 >> 2 >> 3 >> 4 >> But at the same time, the moon is revolving around the earth and rotating on its own axis.

>>0 >>1 >> 2 >> 3 >> 4 >> The moon revolves around the earth approximately every 28 days. Its rotation is also approximately 28 days. So the same side of the moon is always facing the earth.

>>0 >>1 >> 2 >> 3 >> 4 >> The Moon does not give off its own light but reflects light from the sun. Half of the moon that faces the earth is not always the half that is being lit by the sun.

>>0 >>1 >> 2 >> 3 >> 4 >> The light from the sun is hitting the side of the moon facing away from the Earth.

>>0 >>1 >> 2 >> 3 >> 4 >> A cycle of moon’s phases from new moon to new moon. It takes 4 weeks to complete one cycle.

>>0 >>1 >> 2 >> 3 >> 4 >> Approximately one week later, we see half of the lighted side of the moon. This is called a first quarter moon.

>>0 >>1 >> 2 >> 3 >> 4 >> Two weeks after the new moon, a full moon appears. The entire lighted side of the moon is facing earth.

>>0 >>1 >> 2 >> 3 >> 4 >> Three weeks after the new moon, a third quarter moon appears. We can see half of the lighted surface of the moon from earth.

>>0 >>1 >> 2 >> 3 >> 4 >> Four weeks after the new moon, another new moon appears and the cycle starts again.

>>0 >>1 >> 2 >> 3 >> 4 >> FULL QUARTER CRESCENT GIBBOUS FOUR MAIN SHAPES

>>0 >>1 >> 2 >> 3 >> 4 >> In between each of the quarter phases are other distinct phases. Waxing means to grow Gibbous means to be humpbacked Waning means to decrease
