Why can we see the moon during a full moon when it is behind the Earth

History
1 answer:
goldenfox [79]3 years ago

We can see the moon during the full moon when it is behind the earth because of the way it orbits around the earth.

Explanation:

  • The moon orbit around the earth at a tilted angle to the orbit of the Earth around the sun.
  • Furthermore, during the full moon, the moon will exhibit either behind or at the top of the earth's shadow.
  • Because of the tilted orbit, when it is behind the earth's surface it is away from the earth's shadow with the exception during the Lunar eclipse.
  • During the Lunar eclipse, it is easier to see the earth's shadow as it slowly covers the moon's surface.

Why Russia has many pipelines in their country ?
REY [17]

Explanation:

A new natural gas pipeline being built under the Baltic Sea from Russia directly to the German coast is shaking up geopolitics. Nord Stream 2, as it’s called, worries the bypassed countries in Eastern Europe, who fear losing transit fees, and is adding to friction with the U.S., which argues the link would give the Kremlin new leverage over Germany and other NATO allies. As the project nears completion, those trans-Atlantic tensions are building, with Donald Trump threatening to reduce the number of American troops in Germany partly because of the gas link.
