Moon Phases and Eclipses

This photo shows an “Earth Rise” taken from the Apollo 8 spacecraft as it orbited the moon.

Motions of the Moon• It takes the moon

27.3 days to rotate once.

• It takes the moon 27.3 days to revolve once around Earth.

Therefore, THE SAME SIDE OF THE MOON ALWAYS FACES EARTH!

Phases of the Moon

• The positions of the moon, Earth, and sun cause the phases of the moon, eclipses, and tides.

• The phase of the moon you see depends on how much of the sunlit side of the moon faces Earth.

• Waxing = GAINING light• Waning = LOSING light

Solar Eclipses• The moon comes between Earth and the

sun. The moon casts a shadow on the Earth.

• Only the people within the moon’s small shadow will be able to see the eclipse.

Warning! Don’t look directly at a solar eclipse!!

Lunar Eclipses

• The Earth comes between the moon and the sun. Earth’s shadow covers the moon.

• All people in the nighttime hour will see the eclipse.

You can watch this one safely with your own eyes!
