1. The moon

2. Earth rotates at 15 o / hour

3. What occurs.What we see.

6. Earth also has phases!

8. The diagram below shows the Moon in different positions as it revolves around Earth, as observed from above the North Pole (NP). Which image correctly represents the Moon at position 1, as observed from Earth?

9. The diagram below shows the Moon orbiting Earth as viewed from space above the North Pole. The Moon is shown at eight different positions in its orbit. At which position is the Moon “full”? At which positions is the Moon a “quarter”?

10. The diagram below shows the Moon orbiting Earth as viewed from space above the North Pole. The Moon is shown at eight different positions in its orbit.

11. Diagram 1 shows the Moon in its orbit at four positions labeled A, B, C, and D. Diagram 2 shows a phase of the Moon as viewed from New York State. At which labeled Moon position would the phase of the Moon shown in diagram 2 be observed from New York State? (1) A (3) C (2) B (4) D X

12. It’s all about the motions…

13. Takes 29.5 days! When moon is back where it started (27.3 d later) the position to the sun has changed! While moon revolves around Earth, Earth is revolving around sun.

14. BTWBTW The same is true for our day! Remember the missing 3 min and 56 s…..

15. How many days are required for the Moon to go from one full-Moon phase to the next full-Moon phase when viewed from Earth? (1) 24 (2) 27.3 (3) 29.5 (4) 365
