On these days Moon rises (approximately) 18 hours after the Sun rise or (approximately) #6# hours after the Sun set and again exactly one quarter of the Moon's surface is visible from Earth. Third Quarter: When the Earth-Moon line is #270^o# away from the Earth-Sun line, it is the Third Quarter phase.
#Position of the day full#
On Full Moon days Moon rises just as the Sun sets. Not every Full Moon is a Lunar Eclipse but every Full Moon coincides with a Full Moon. However, occasionally the alignment could be near perfect leading to an eclipsing of Moon by the Earth. The Earth-Moon line and the Earth-Sun line are close to #180^o# away. But usually the alignment is not perfect with the Moon's longitude lying a little above or below the Sun's longitude. Full Moon: Moon, Earth and Sun lined up with the Earth coming between the Moon and the Sun. On those days Moon rises (approximately) #6# hours after the Sun rise and exactly one quarter of the Moon's surface is visible from Earth. First Quarter: When the Earth-Moon line is #90^o# away from the Earth-Sun line, it is the First Quarter phase. On New Moon days Moon rises along with the Sun. Not every New Moon is a Solar Eclipse but every Solar Eclipse will coincide with New Moon. However, occasionally the alignment could be near perfect leading to an eclipsing of Sun by the Moon.
As Earth continues to rotate and the Sun appears lower in the sky toward evening, the shadows get.
At noon, with the Sun overhead, objects cast short shadows or no shadow at all. As Earth rotates, the Sun appears higher in the sky, and the shadows get shorter. The Earth-Moon line and the Earth-Sun line are close to zero degree. In the morning, the Sun appears low in the sky objects cast long shadows. But usually the alignment is not perfect with the Moon's longitude lying a few degrees above or below the Sun's longitude. New Moon: Earth, Moon and Sun lined up with the Moon coming between the Earth and the Sun.
