  The animation depicts the diurnal motion of the Sun and Moon around the observer from east to west. This is the result of the rotation of the celestial sphere (or Earth). At the same time, the orbital motion of the moon around the Earth shows up as a slow eastward displacement of the moon relative to the Sun at the rate of 12.2 degrees per day ...

  by the Sun. Moon orbits Earth because space is curved by Earth. Materials: 2 buckets covered with fabric; bag of marbles; two weights of different mass To Say: Now we just made those marbles fall into the Earth. The Moon is like a giant marble – actually a ball of rock – out in space – why doesn’t it fall to Earth? Yes, it is orbiting!

  orbit in the Earth-Moon rotating frame. Due to the near resonance, the orbit appears as a three-leaf pattern with apogee near 180 deg or 60 deg from the Moon, as seen in Figure 2. The IBEX orbit shown in Figure 2 exhibits a quasiperiodic “nodding” motion in the Earth-Moon rotating frame.

  [The Moon should orbit in the same plane as the Earth’s rotation (around its equator), not the plane of its orbit around the Sun.] • How much angular momentum in the Earth-Moon system (the combined energy of Earth’s and Moon’s rotations and the Moon’s orbit) does this hypothesis require? [The

  Fun Facts About the Moon Size: Distance from Earth: The Moon's average distance from Earth is 238,000 miles (383,500 km). Orbit around Earth: It takes the Moon 27.3 Earth days to revolve around our planet one time. Rotation: The Moon spins on its axis once every 27.3 Earth days.

  1. Demonstrate and illustrate how the relative positions of the sun, earth and moon cause the phases of the moon as seen from earth. 2. Given a drawing or photograph of the moon in any phase, be able to correctly name that phase and draw a diagram showing the relative positions of Earth, the moon and the sun for that phase. 3.
