The
moon
Every time you look up in the sky at night, you will see how beautiful
the moon is. We all know that it gives us light in darkness and has the
ability of changing its shape! It is all just an illusion. The moon doesn’t
emit light to itself. The moon we see is actually the sun’s light
reflected off the lunar surface.
The sun is also responsible for the moon’s transformation from the
new moon to full moon, and back again under the process we called
“Lunar Cycle” or “Phases of the Moon”.
The
moon
The Moon is Earth's only natural
satellite and is the fifth largest
moon in the solar system.
Moon Stats
Diameter: Approximately 3,476
kilometers
Mass: Approximately 81
quintillion pounds
Distance from Earth:
Approximately 384,400
kilometers
Orbital Period: Approximately
27.3 Earth days
Gravity: Approximately one-
sixth of Earth's gravity
four main phases
The new moon
phase is when
the Moon is not
visible from
Earth.
New
Moon The waxing
phases are
when the Moon
appears to grow
larger.
Waxing
The full moon
phase is when
the entire
illuminated side
of the Moon is
visible from
Earth.
Full Moon
The waning
phases are
when the Moon
appears to grow
smaller.
Waning
The Complete
Cycle
The lunar cycle is the
recurring sequence of
changes in the Moon's
appearance as seen
from Earth, which
begins with the new
moon phase and
progresses through
waxing phases, full
moon, waning phases
before returning to
the new moon phase
again.
This lunar cycle
completes in
approximately 29.5
Earth days.
New
Moon
The new moon phase is a phase of
the moon where it appears
completely dark in the sky.
This happens because during this
phase, the side of the moon that is
facing Earth is not illuminated by
the sun.
New Moon Stats
Moon Phase: Primary
Illumination: 0%
Position: Between the sun
and earth
Waxing
Crescent
The moon appears as a thin
crescent shape in the sky, with only
a small portion of its surface
illuminated.
During this phase, the moon moves
further away from the sun and more
of its illuminated side becomes
visible.
waxing crescent Stats
Moon Phase: Intermediate
Illumination: 0.1% to 49.9%
Position: Between the sun
and earth
First
Quarter
The moon appears as a half-circle in
the sky, with exactly half of its
surface illuminated by the sun.
At this point in its cycle, the moon is
one quarter of the way through its
orbit around the Earth.
first quarter Stats
Moon Phase: Primary
Illumination: 50%
Position: One quarter
around the earth.
Waxing
Gibbous
During this phase, the moon
appears in a mostly illuminated
crescent shape, with only a small
part appearing dark.
This occurs as the moon continues
to move away from the first quarter
phase and closer to the full moon
phase.
waxing gibbous Stats
Moon Phase: Intermediate
Illumination: 50.1% to
99.9%
Position: Moved further
along in its orbit
Full
Moon
During this phase, the entire face of
the Moon that is visible from Earth
is fully illuminated.
This occurs when the Moon is on the
opposite side of the Earth from the
Sun, with the Earth sandwiched
between.
full Moon Stats
Moon Phase: Primary
Illumination: 100%
Position: Moon and the Sun
are on opposite sides of
Earth
Waning
Gibbous
During this phase, the Moon
appears as a large and bright, but
gradually shrinking, crescent shape
in the sky.
The waning gibbous moon rises in
the east in the late evening and sets
in the west in the early morning
hours.
waning gibbous Stats
Moon Phase: Intermediate
Illumination: 99.9% to
49.9%
Position: Moves further
away from the full moon
phase
Third
Quarter
The third quarter moon is a phase
of the Moon that occurs
approximately three weeks after the
new moon phase.
During this phase, the Moon
appears as a half-moon shape, with
half of its face illuminated by
sunlight.
third quarter Stats
Moon Phase: Intermediate
Illumination: 99.9% to
49.9%
Position: approx. 90˚ away
from the Sun as viewed from
Earth
Waning
Crescent
The waning crescent moon is a
phase of the Moon that occurs
approximately three weeks after the
full moon phase.
During this phase, the Moon
appears as a thin crescent, with a
small portion of its face illuminated
by sunlight.
waning crescent Stats
Moon Phase: Intermediate
Illumination: 49.9% to 0.1%
Position: Between the sun
and earth
