1 Recap of Earth-Moon Comparison

2 Earth 6400 kilometer radius 23 degree axis tilt (seasons!) Surface temps –73 to 48 C (- 100 to 120F) Thick atmosphere, mild greenhouse effect Liquid water – lots! - at surface 1738 kilometer radius 7 degree axis tilt Surface temps - 107 C to – 153 C (224 F to –243 F) No atmosphere No liquid water Moon

3 Earth Active volcanoes - chains Earthquakes - chains Mountain chains Active magnetic field Few craters Geologically Active! Moon NO active volcanoes Few moonquakes NO mountain chains NO active magnetic field Buckets of craters Geologically Inactive!

4 Phases of the Moon!

5 Revolve Orbit Rotate Axis Earth-Moon Vocabulary

6 Moon Vocabulary Waxing- To show a progressively larger illuminated area from new moon to full moon. Lighted side is getting BIGGER and on the RIGHT! Waning- To show a progressively smaller illuminated area from full moon to new moon. Lighted side is getting SMALLER and on the LEFT! Gibbous- More than half but less than fully illuminated. Means “hump”. Crescent- The figure of the moon as it appears in its first or last quarter, with concave and convex edges terminating in points. Means “curved”.

11 Eclipse- Occurs when one object passes through the shadow of another. Means “outshine or surpass”. Lunar Eclipse- The full moon passes through Earth’s shadow and appears eclipsed, or shaded. It may also look red. A total Lunar Eclipse lasts more than 2 hours. The Earth is between the Moon and the Sun. Solar Eclipse- Earth passes through the shadow of the moon, and the sun appears hidden behind the moon. A total Solar Eclipse lasts no more than 7.5 minutes. The moon is between the Earth and the Sun.

12 Eclipses Only 7 eclipses occur in a single year. –2 Lunar –5 Solar
