1 The Moon
2 Create a bulleted list of everything you know about the moon!
3 If given the opportunity, would you want to go to the moon? A. YES! That would be really cool. B. NO! Why would anyone want to go to the moon? C. Go to the moon? Really? We can DO that???
4 If You Decide to Go to the Moon
5 As you listen to the story, reflect on it! Create a chart like this: What I knew What I thought I knew but was wrong What I am confused about!
6 The effects of the Moon Phases of the moon Eclipses Tides
7 Why does the moon have phases? The changing relative positions of the moon, Earth, and sun cause the phases of the moon!
8 Why do eclipses occur? Sometimes the Earth, sun, and moon line up so that one object is blocking or shadowing another
9 Why does the Earth have tides? The sun and moon pull on the Earth s water causing the tides to rise
10 Phases of the Moon
11 The Moon & the Ocean Tides
12 Tides Periodic rise and fall of large bodies of water caused by the gravitational pull of the moon on the Earth. The tides rise for 6 hours and then fall for 6 hours!
13 What Causes Tides? Tides are caused by the interaction of Earth, the moon, and the sun s gravitational pulls.
14 When are the tides? There are 2 High Tides and 2 Low Tides every day. There are 2 Spring Tides and 2 Neap Tides each month! What could be causing these DAILY and MONTHLY changes? What events do you know about that occur DAILY and MONTHLY?
15 High Tide Outward bulge of water. Side of earth facing moon and the exact opposite side Occurs twice per day As we rotate into the moon s gravitational pull!
16 Low Tide Trough left by the movement of water to the two bulges. Occurs twice per day as we move OUT OF the moon s gravitational pull!
17 TIDAL RANGE The difference between the highest and lowest tides on any given day
18 TIDAL RANGE in Real Life
19 Animation of High and Low Tides ten/themenseiten/t2/s1.html
20 Spring and Neap Tides When Earth, the sun, and the moon are in a straight line, a spring tide occurs. When the moon is at a right angle to the sun, a neap tide occurs.
21 Full or new moon causes the gravity of sun and moon to combine causing extreme high and low tides Large difference between high and low tides Spring Tide
22 What would the tidal range be like during a SPRING TIDE?
23 Moon is in Quarter phase causing the gravity of the sun and moon to cancel each other. (Sun and moon pull at a right angle) Smaller difference between high and low tides Neap tide
24 What would the tidal range be like during a SPRING TIDE?
25 Animation of Spring and Neap Tides 6/jun/tides.html
26 - Tides What Causes Tides? Spring tides and neap tides are caused by the positions of Earth, the sun, and the moon.
27 The Tide Cycle The tide cycle
28 ECLIPSES!
29 The Moon s Tilted Orbit The moon s orbit is tilted by 5 degrees, so it is infrequent for the sun, moon, and earth to all line up. When these objects do align, eclipses occur.
30 Eclipse When the moon s shadow hits Earth or Earth s shadow hits the moon, an eclipse occurs
31 Solar Eclipse: Sun-Moon-Earth During which moon phase is this possible??
32 Types of Eclipses Solar eclipse solar is Latin for sun Occurs when the moon passes directly between Earth and the sun, blocking sunlight from Earth Lunar eclipse- lunar is Latin for moon Occurs when Earth blocks sunlight from reaching the moon
33 UMBRA: darkest spot seen in one location PENUMBRA: shadowed part seen in many areas
34 Total Solar Eclipse Light from the sun is completely blocked by the moon; within the umbra Umbra- the very darkest part of the moon s shadow on Earth Partial Solar Eclipse Part of the sun is visible from Earth within the penumbra Penumbra- larger part of the moon s shadow on Earth
35 Annular Eclipse: The Sun and Moon are directly in line with the Earth, but the moon appears smaller (it is further away from us)
36 Lunar Eclipse: Sun-Earth-Moon During which moon phase is this possible??
37 UMBRA: darkest part seen from anywhere PENUMBRA: shadowed part seen from space
38 Total Lunar Eclipse When the moon is in Earth s umbra, a total lunar eclipse occurs. Can be seen anywhere on Earth that the moon is visible Partial Lunar Eclipse Occurs when the moon passes partly into the umbra of Earth s shadow; can appear orange The edge of the umbra appears blurry, and you can watch it pass across the moon for two or three hours.
39 If given the opportunity, would you want to go to the moon? A. YES! That would be really cool. B. NO! Why would anyone want to go to the moon? C. Go to the moon? Really? We can DO that???
40 Has your decision changed? Why or why not?
