    the center of the diagram. The moon is shown at 8 key stages during its revolution around the earth. The moon phase name is shown alongside the image. The dotted line from the earth to the moon represents your line of sight when looking at the moon. The large moon image shows what you would see at that point in the cycle. For the waning gibbous, third quarter, and waning crescent phases you have to mentally turn yourself upside down when imagining the line of sight. When you do this, you 'll "see"

Astrological calendars have been in existence

    Experiment #1: Determination of the Solid-Liquid Phase Diagram for Napthalene-Biphenyl Using Thermal Analysis Objective To apply thermal analysis to the two-component system, naphthalene-biphenyl at atmospheric temperature. The analysis will be represented by a solid-liquid phase diagram (freezing point diagram). Theoretical Principles Phase Equilibria and the Gibbs Phase Rule This experiment is conducted in order to study a condensed system (solid-liquid) at constant temperature (atmospheric

Page 1 – Introduction to Moon Phases Is there a dark side of the moon? (Note: this question can be effectively answered either yes or no, so it is important to explain your reasoning.) Some people refer to the side of the moon that we never see from Earth as the dark side. However, this is inaccurate since the far side is not always

    INVESTIGATION PLAN PROBLEM What causes the phases of the moon? Another question is, “How does the phase of the moon affect the amount of stars visible in the night sky?” HYPOTHESIS My hypothesis is that the phase of the moon is because when the sun’s rays hit different parts of the moon different “shapes” appear. A second hypothesis is since the moon reflects the sun’s light, the phase of the moon effects the number of stars visible in the dark sky. PROCEDURE To begin this experiment, I will

    Predictions Model 1: “Moon phases are caused by the shadow of the Earth on the Moon” 1. If Moon phases are caused by the shadow of the Earth on the Moon, when there is a new Moon, it should lie directly behind the Earth. The sunlight would be completely blocked off from the Moon because of Earth’s shadow. 2. If Moon phases are caused by the shadow of the Earth on the Moon, the Moon should be a full Moon for most of the lunar month because Earth will not cast a shadow on the Moon unless the Moon
