The Moon Cycle
5
Lunar Cycle It takes the moon 29.5 days to orbit once around the Earth. Read from right to left
6
Lunar Cycle Although this cycle is a continuous process, there are eight distinct, traditionally recognized stages, called phases. New moon Waxing crescent First quarter Waxing gibbous Full moon Waning gibbous Last quarter Waning crescent
7
New Moon: 1 st Stage Characteristics– The side that is facing the Earth is not lit up by the Sun. (except during a solar eclipse). Time Line: This is the starting point of the cycle. Looks Like:
8
Characteristics– A small part (less than ½) of moon is lit up at this point. The part that is lit up is slowly getting bigger. Time Line: approximately 3.7 days to occur after the New Moon. Waxing Crescent :2nd stage Looks Like:
9
Characteristics– ½ of the moon is lit up by the sun at this point. The part that is lit up is slowly getting bigger. Time Line: This is occurs in about 7.4 days First Quarter : 3rd stage Looks Like:
10
Characteristics– The Moon appears to be more than one- half, illuminated by direct sunlight. The part that is lit is slowly increasing. Time Line: This is occurs in about 11.1 days. Waxing Gibbous : 4 th stage Looks Like:
11
Characteristics– The side of the moon that is lit up by the sun is facing the Earth. The entire moon is lit up at this point. Time Line: This is occurs in approximately 14.8 days Full Moon : 5th stage Looks Like:
12
Characteristics– The moon is not quite lit up all the way by sunlight. The part of the moon that is lit is slowly getting smaller. Time Line: This is occurs in about 18.5days Waning Gibbous : 6th stage Looks Like:
13
Characteristics– ½ of the moon is lit up by the sun at this point. The part that is lit up is slowly decreasing. Time Line: This is occurs in about 22.2days Last Quarter : 7th stage Looks Like:
14
Characteristics– Less than ½ of the moon is lit up at this point. The part that is lit up is slowly decreasing. Time Line: This is occurs in about 25.9 days Waning Crescent : 8th stage Looks Like:
