Can anyone explain the moon in the eastern sky this afternoon?

The orientation of the moon changes throughout the year It is also very complicated The Sunday movement of the celestial bodies + the annual motion of the celestial bodies + the weekly-lunar movement peculiar to the Moon.

Or the law of the change of the phases of the moon, even if it is the movement of the moon (a term I made up myself).

On the first day of the lunar calendar, the moon and the sun rise and set together.

After that, the moon rises 50 minutes later every day, and by the seventh month (the first quarter of the moon) the moon appears in the western sky behind the sunrise, setting later and later (from evening to midnight), and the brighter surface is getting larger.

Later, on the fifteenth day of the lunar calendar, the moon appears in the eastern sky after sunset, and the later the moon sets (from midnight to dawn), the brighter the brighter it becomes.

Then, on the 23rd lunar month (the last quarter of the lunar month), the moon is not visible behind the sunrise tower, and it will not rise until some time after the sun sets, and after sunrise it is located in the western sky, and the bright surface is getting smaller and smaller.

By the 29th and 30th (obscurity) of the lunar calendar, the moon rises later and later, rising after midnight, appearing in the eastern sky after sunrise, getting closer and closer to the sun, and getting smaller and smaller on both sides, and at 29,30 it rises and sets with the sun almost at the same time, which cannot be observed.

After that, a new cycle begins.

The following is a summary of the law of moon phase changes.

The Moon rises and sets at the same time as the Sun during the New Moon, and rises 50 minutes later every day thereafter.

The bright side of the moon is always facing the sun, and the farther away the moon is from the sun, the brighter it becomes.

Quote from astronomy expert : Zenith Star - Counselor of the eighth level.

To put it simply, the Moon's orbit is complex, with the average daily rise of the Moon about 50 minutes later than the day before. But this is the average, and the time difference between this lag in winter is shorter and longer in summer. The float range can be up to 20-80 minutes.

Yesterday was the ninth day of the lunar month, and the moon would rise in the east at a later noon, and at 1:30 p.m., it would run exactly to the location that the landlord said.

What astronomical phenomena are as follows:

A lunar eclipse occurs on March 23, 2023, which coincides with the new moon, i.e., the Sun, the Earth, and the Moon are in the same straight line, and the Moon is exactly between the Sun and the Earth, and the Sun's light is blocked by the Moon, so a lunar eclipse occurs. The lunar eclipse lasted for about 3 hours, starting at 2:50 a.m. (Beijing time) and ending at 5:55 a.m. on March 23, 2023. This wonderful astronomical landscape can be seen in China and adjacent waters, Oceania, Southeast Asia, South America, the Southwest Pacific and the Western Pacific.

A lunar eclipse is an astronomical phenomenon formed by the Moon orbiting the Sun in its orbit and occupying the Sun in correspondence with the position of the Earth. It occurs when the Moon reaches the Crescent phase, and when the Moon and the Sun are very close together, the Moon will cover the Sun, causing the Sun to be obscured by the Moon, forming a lunar eclipse phenomenon.

According to ancient Chinese divination and ** methods, the lunar occultation of Venus is often considered a harbinger of disaster and bad luck. It is believed that this phenomenon may be a harbinger of natural disasters, political turmoil, economic crises, and more. Ancient people believed that when this phenomenon occurred, people should be vigilant and take as few risks or decisions as possible.

However, in modern astronomy, the lunar occultation of Venus is regarded as a very interesting phenomenon. Scientists studying this phenomenon not only get interesting data, but also help them understand how the universe works. The lunar cover of Venus is of great significance for our understanding of the large-scale structure of the universe, the movement and the trajectory of its satellites, and the formation and evolution of celestial interactions.

In fact, the moon is always in the sky, so it is normal to see half a white moon in the sky in the afternoon.

The moon is present both during the day and at night. Just like the sun exists at night.

The moon is reflected by the sun's light and glows, due to the day's rays of the sun.

It's too strong to obscure the curved moon that reflects the sun's light, so it's not easy for us to spot it in the sky, but when the sun is weak, we see the moon, so sometimes in the afternoon when the sun is weak, we see the moon.

After the Full Moon and until a few days before the New Moon, the Moon appears during the day. The crescent phase is not visible because of the Moon.

The shiny side is facing away from the earth.

This is a very normal celestial phenomenon called Venus conjunction.

I don't know if the owner knows the ecliptic, the ecliptic refers to the trajectory of the observation of the sun's movement on the earth, the observation of the ecliptic on the earth is a circle, and the vast majority of celestial bodies in the solar system (the eight planets, including our moon) are active in a small area north and south of the ecliptic, this area is called the zodiac.

Our moon revolves around the earth at a faster rate, the sky can revolve once, then it can run at a speed of 13 ° per day on the ecliptic, and other celestial bodies, up to 1 ° a day, so that the moon will approach a celestial body (the sun, planets, stars near the ecliptic) once a month, when the two are the closest together, it is called a conjunction moon.

This is what happened today, the moon and Venus are very close to each other, and in the southern part of our country, you can even see the celestial phenomenon of the moon occultating Venus. If the landlord has not seen it, there will be a rough shirt once a month, and the astronomical observation conditions of the Venus-shaped conjunct moon in the next two months are good.

It is normal for the moon to rise in the east and set in the west like the sun, and it is not unusual to see the moon in the west after sunset, because the moon is about to go down with the sun, but it has not yet gone down.

So you can speculate from this that the sun must not have risen a little earlier than the moon in the morning of the day, the problem is that the sky is already very bright when the sun rises, and most people are not in the habit of looking for the moon during the day, so not many people notice the moon rising during the day. It was only after the sun had gone down and it was dark that we noticed the moon following the sun, and it was ready to go down.

So, never make the mistake of thinking that the moon is rising in the west, if you keep observing for a few minutes, you will see that the moon is sinking to the west, not rising. It's even better if there are buildings nearby, and you can use them as a reference to see that the moon is sinking.

The moon's position is different every night and is caused by the moon's revolution around the earth.

The moon revolves around the earth from west to east, and the period is a sidereal moon day, but because of the revolution of the earth itself, the time from the moon to the next full moon is a synodic moon for the sky, and because of the rotation of the moon, the position of the moon relative to the earth is changing every moment.

The phase of the Moon, i.e. its shape, and the relative position of the Moon and the Sun are also changing, and every day the Moon moves westward and perturbates about 13°, so it rises about 50 minutes later, so the position of the Moon is different at the same time every day. The first quarter moon comes out in the middle of the night and comes out in the west, with the moon facing west.

The meaning of the lyrics of the moon on the edge of the sky is: to express the creator's deep longing for his hometown.

The song "The Moon on the Edge of the Sky" was sung by Canghai Zongchuang, lyrics and music by Xu Ziwei, and published by **Ren Canghai Zongchuang on QQ**.

This song is very subtle, the lyrics are all about using the moon to convey the author's feelings on the surface, and the tactful and melodious tune makes the artistic conception of this song very beautiful.

Lyrics. The moon on the horizon.

It's my gaze that looks at you.

In the endless night sky.

Far away from you.

The moon on the horizon.

It's me who misses your face.

That merciless galaxy.

All sprinkled with the light of my sedan love.

O moon in the sky.

Dressed for you every night.

The moonrise may illuminate for you.

The moon sets and wishes to fall asleep.

O moon in the sky.

Sing for you night and night.

The moon bends and sings your sorrowful and repentant sedan chair.

The full moon sings that the earth is long.

The moon on the horizon.

It's my gaze that looks at you.

In the endless night sky.

Far away from you.

The moon on the horizon.

It's me who misses your face.

That merciless galaxy.

It's all sprinkled with the light of my love.

O moon in the sky.

Dressed for you every night.

The moonrise may illuminate for you.

The moon sets and wishes to fall asleep.

O moon in the sky.

Sing for you night and night.

The moon bends and sings of your sorrows.

The full moon sings that the earth is long.

O moon in the sky.

Dressed for you every night.

The moonrise may illuminate for you.

The moon sets and wishes to fall asleep.

O moon in the sky.

Sing for you night and night.

The moon bends and sings of your sorrows.

The full moon sings that the earth is long.

The full moon sings that the earth is long.
