1 What is a mare? Study Points What causes craters, especially on the Moon? What is the Moon s terminator? Explain why the Moon exhibits phases. Draw the Sun-Earth-Moon system showing the Moon s orbit (not to scale), draw Moon in 8 different positions in its orbit and shade in Earth and Moon indicating which side is lit and which is dark. Use that drawing to explain what phase you will see for each of the Moon s locations you drew. Knowing when New Moon occurs, predict about when First Quarter, Full, and Last Quarter Moons will occur. Know about how many days are in between the phases. Explain why the Sun, Moon and stars appear to rise in the east and set in the west. Explain why we have day and night using a sketch of Sun-Earth-Moon system to help. In one hour, the Moon, Sun, and stars move about how many degrees in the sky? (hint: how many degrees does the Earth rotate in 24 hours)? In one day, the Moon moves about how many degrees in the sky? (hint: about how many degrees does the Moon revolve in 30 days)? What direction does the Moon move from one night to the next? Explain? Explain why you always see the same face of the Moon.

9 Moon s Motion You decide to watch our moon for a few hours one night. Which way does it move in the sky? 1. Toward the east 2. Toward the west (Show on Starry Night)
10 Moon s Motion You decide to watch our moon for a few hours one night. Which way does it move in the sky? 1. Toward the east 2. Toward the west (Show on Starry Night) The Moon rises in the East and Sets in the West* Same motion as the Sun in our sky

21 If you watch Moon for a few hours, which motion dominates? 1. Moon s motion due Earth s spin (rotation) 2. Moon s motion due to its own orbit around Earth (revolution) (Draw it)
22 If you watch Moon for a few hours, which motion dominates? 1. Moon s motion due Earth s spin (rotation) 2. Moon s motion due to its own orbit around Earth (revolution) (Draw it)
23 If you note Moon s position from one hour to the next, predict if it will move 1. East to west 2. West to east If you note Moon s position from one night to the next, predict if it will move 1. East to west 2. West to east Starry Night for both
24 If you note Moon s position from one hour to the next, predict if it will move 1. East to west* 2. West to east If you note Moon s position from one night to the next, predict if it will move 1. East to west 2. West to east* Starry Night for both
25 Moon s Motion Conclusion* Minute to minute (or hour to hour) the Sun, Moon, stars appear to rise in east and set in west due to Earth s spin (rotation).* Day to day, Moon moves west to east due to Moon s orbit (revolution) around Earth*
26 How much do the Moon, Sun, and stars move in our sky in an hour?
27 How much do the Moon, Sun, and stars move in our sky in an hour? First answer: How many degrees do they move in a day?
28 How much do the Moon, Sun, and stars move in our sky in an hour? First answer: How many degrees do they move in a day? About 360 degrees around Earth in one day as Earth revolves
29 How much do the Moon, Sun, and stars move in our sky in an hour? First answer: How many degrees do they move in a day? About 360 degrees around Earth in one day as Earth revolves = 360 degrees / 24 hours = 15 degrees per hour across our sky*
30 How much does the Moon move each day?
31 How much does the Moon move each day? How many degrees does the Moon move as it revolves (orbits) around Earth?
32 How much does the Moon move each day? How many degrees does the Moon move as it revolves (orbits) around Earth? 360 degrees
33 How much does the Moon move each day? How many degrees does the Moon move as it revolves (orbits) around Earth? 360 degrees How long does the Moon take to revolve around Earth?
34 How much does the Moon move each day? How many degrees does the Moon move as it revolves (orbits) around Earth? 360 degrees How long does the Moon take to revolve around Earth? about 30 days
35 How much does the Moon move each day? How many degrees does the Moon move as it revolves (orbits) around Earth? 360 degrees How long does the Moon take to revolve around Earth? about 30 days So each day the Moon moves: About 12 degrees per day (~10 deg/day)*
36 How much does the Moon move each day? How many degrees does the Moon move as it revolves (orbits) around Earth? 360 degrees How long does the Moon take to revolve around Earth? about 30 days So each day the Moon moves: About 12 degrees per day (~10 deg/day)* Moon rises later each day; about 50 minutes later each day
37 Now compare the Moon s movement to the Earth s movement in 1 day. Which motion dominates? How much does the Earth move each day? How many degrees does the Earth move as it revolves (orbits) around the Sun?
38 Now compare the Moon s movement to the Earth s movement in 1 day How much does the Earth move each day? How many degrees does the Earth move as it revolves (orbits) around the Sun? 360 degrees
39 Now compare the Moon s movement to the Earth s movement in 1 day How much does the Earth move each day? How many degrees does the Earth move as it revolves (orbits) around the Sun? = 360 degrees/365 days ~= 1 deg/day
40 Now compare the Moon s movement to the Earth s movement in 1 day How much does the Earth move each day? How many degrees does the Earth move as it revolves (orbits) around the Sun? Earth moves about 1 degree/day And The Moon moves about 10 degrees/day Which motion dominates?
41 Now compare the Moon s movement to the Earth s movement in 1 day How much does the Earth move each day? How many degrees does the Earth move as it revolves (orbits) around the Sun? Earth moves about 1 degree/day And The Moon moves about 10 degrees/day Which motion dominates? The Moon (10 deg/day > 1 deg/day)* This is the reason the Moon appears to move backward in the sky from one day to the next (& rises later each day).*
42 Moon s Motion Conclusion* Minute to minute (or hour to hour) the Sun, Moon, stars appear to rise in east and set in west due to Earth s spin (rotation).* Day to day, Moon moves west to east due to Moon s orbit (revolution) around Earth*
