The Moon Lore Landscape Phases Eclipses Formation

Legends? Can you see the man in the moon?

Landscapes Maria –Latin word for sea –Dark areas of the moon –Low lands and basins –Similar rock to our ocean basins Highlands –Lighter color rock –Mountain ranges formed from moons formation –As old as the moon 4.2 – 4.5 billion years old Craters –Circular hollows –Impacts from meteoroids –Range from 2100 km to microscopic

The Moon Phases Daily changes in the moons appearance from earth We see the light from the sun reflected off the moon The sun always illuminated half the moon The position of the moon effects how much of the moon we see

Moon Phases

Full Moon –When the bright face of the moon faces the earth New moon –When the bright face of the moon faces away from the earth

Moon Phases Crescent Less than half the moon seen Gibbous More then half the moon seen 1 st Quarter Half way point between the new moon and full moon 3 rd Quarter Halfway point between the full moon and new moon

Moon Phases Waxing –Moving from new moon (all dark) to the full moon (all light) –“D” shape –“Wax on”

Moon Phases Waning –Moving from the full moon (all bright) to the new moon (all dark) –“C” shaped –“Wane off”

Moon’s Orbit How many sides of the moon can we see from earth? –One As the moon revolves around the earth it rotates – for every 1 revolution it rotates once Same side always faces the earth Revolves at an angle

Moon’s orbit The moon orbits on a different plan from the earth Allows for the moon phases What happens when the plane of the moon and the plane of the earth intersect?

Eclipses Only happens at the full or new moon Shadow is cast over either the moon of the earth Orbs are either is a partial shadow: Penumbra Or In a total shadow: Umbra

Lunar Eclipse Earth is between sun and moon Earth’s shadow on the moon Only during the full moon

Solar Eclipse Moon is between the sun and the earth Moon’s shadow on the earth Only during the new moon

Formation Many theories (did you really need to write this) Earth and moon formed at the same time Earth was spinning so fast that chunks of rock broke off Made of cheese from astral milk (did you really need to write this) Formed from a collision between the earth and a planet sized object 4.5 bya (billion years ago) (most accepted)
