1 Chapter 25, Section 2 Moon’s Phases Moon’s motionsThe moon rises in the east and sets in the west Rising and setting of the sun is a result of Earth’s rotation Moon’s orbit takes 27 1 / 3 days

2 When do we see the moon? When the moon is on the other side of Earth opposite the Sun, we see it at night When the Moon is in between the Sun and Earth, it is seen in the daytime sky

3 Moons orbitElliptical Perigee – when Moon is closest to Earth Apogee – whena the moon is fathest from Earth in its orbit

4 Waxing Waning Crescent Quarter Gibbous Moving from new moon to full moon Moving from full moon back to new moon ¼ moon reflects sunlight ½ moon reflects sunlight 3/4 moon reflects sunlight

5 Moon’s Phasesdaily changes in the moon’s appearance Why? 2 reasons: –Moon reflects sunlight –Moon is in orbit around the earth
