astra-53 [7]

Answer:

The day moon is a product of the sunlight reflected on the satellite. Sometimes, we can see the moon during the daytime, because depending on the moon´s position, sunlight is reflected on the satellite, allowing us to see from the Earth during the day.

Explanation:

The moon is a dull satellite that has no light by itself. The only way we can see it is through the reflection of the sunlight on this body. This effect also depends on the moon´s position concerning the Earth and to the sun. It is a natural product of the rotation and translation movement of the Earth and the moon.

This effect is related to the moon phases: new, first quarter, full and third quarter. During the daytime, we can see the waxing and waning gibbous phases because the moon is placed in a way that sunlight reaches it and reflects its shape. When this effect occurs, we can see that the star and the satellite get more separated each day. The moon gets to hide in the skyline later than the sun. This is why sometimes we can see the moon during the evening or the day.
