Half of the moon is always lit, and as it rotates on its axis while spinning around the earth, we (humans on earth) see different things depending on where the moon is on it's journey. ]]> 2018-09-26 14:40:16 UTC https://padlet.com/anna_axelson/8h5jvka25pfw/wish/286056982 anna_axelson https://padlet.com/anna_axelson/8h5jvka25pfw/wish/286289731 The phases of the moon as shown in their positions around the Earth.]]> 2018-09-26 23:12:47 UTC https://padlet.com/anna_axelson/8h5jvka25pfw/wish/286289731 anna_axelson https://padlet.com/anna_axelson/8h5jvka25pfw/wish/286289851 The phases of the moon as listed below in their spots relative to the Earth and Sun's locations in space.]]> 2018-09-26 23:13:47 UTC https://padlet.com/anna_axelson/8h5jvka25pfw/wish/286289851 anna_axelson https://padlet.com/anna_axelson/8h5jvka25pfw/wish/286290733 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t6MCtB752AE]]> 2018-09-26 23:21:50 UTC https://padlet.com/anna_axelson/8h5jvka25pfw/wish/286290733 anna_axelson https://padlet.com/anna_axelson/8h5jvka25pfw/wish/286293222 I chose this article as I think the exploration of the moon really ties well with what we've been learning. We've been taught that there is always one half of the moon that is never lit, and I like that this article discusses how someone is finally exploring it. ]]> 2018-09-26 23:39:05 UTC https://padlet.com/anna_axelson/8h5jvka25pfw/wish/286293222 anna_axelson https://padlet.com/anna_axelson/8h5jvka25pfw/wish/286295063 A lunar eclipse is the event of the moon traveling through the shadow the Earth casts.   The event is pretty rare, as the celestial bodies don't always align perfectly for it to be fully covered, sometimes resulting in a partial eclipse if it enters certain parts of the shadow. (The umbra is the darker part in the middle of the shadow and the penumbra is the lighter part in the outer section.]]> 2018-09-26 23:50:39 UTC https://padlet.com/anna_axelson/8h5jvka25pfw/wish/286295063 anna_axelson https://padlet.com/anna_axelson/8h5jvka25pfw/wish/286477259 This diagram shows how a lunar eclipse happens, and quite perfectly at that.   ]]> 2018-09-27 12:58:10 UTC https://padlet.com/anna_axelson/8h5jvka25pfw/wish/286477259 anna_axelson https://padlet.com/anna_axelson/8h5jvka25pfw/wish/286539385 My example of a lunar eclipse.]]> 2018-09-27 14:27:02 UTC https://padlet.com/anna_axelson/8h5jvka25pfw/wish/286539385 anna_axelson https://padlet.com/anna_axelson/8h5jvka25pfw/wish/286542518 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VW2xRR75lKE]]> 2018-09-27 14:31:33 UTC https://padlet.com/anna_axelson/8h5jvka25pfw/wish/286542518 anna_axelson https://padlet.com/anna_axelson/8h5jvka25pfw/wish/286548183 I chose this article as when we watched the occurrence of a solar eclipse, there were a big crowd of people who witnessed the event and saw it as something spiritual.  I was curious about this topic and wanted to know more, and this article talks about the spiritual side of a eclipses and I was interested immediately.

It is much harder to see than a lunar eclipse as the moon's shadow is much smaller than the Earth's. Only some of the people of Earth experience a solar eclipse as the shadow only covers a part of the Earth. ]]> 2018-09-27 14:47:12 UTC https://padlet.com/anna_axelson/8h5jvka25pfw/wish/286553251 anna_axelson https://padlet.com/anna_axelson/8h5jvka25pfw/wish/286560942 2018-09-27 14:57:40 UTC https://padlet.com/anna_axelson/8h5jvka25pfw/wish/286560942 anna_axelson https://padlet.com/anna_axelson/8h5jvka25pfw/wish/286728265 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cxrLRbkOwKs]]> 2018-09-27 19:52:06 UTC https://padlet.com/anna_axelson/8h5jvka25pfw/wish/286728265 anna_axelson https://padlet.com/anna_axelson/8h5jvka25pfw/wish/286733265 Tides are the phenomenon of the rising and falling of the water on Earth due to the gravitational pull of the moon each day.  There is high tide, as well as low tide that occur twice a day due to the moon's rotation on its axis. Spring tides are events that take place during the full moon and new moon, when the high and low tides are extra high (high tide) and low (low tide). When there is a quarter moon, the bugles of the water on Earth cancel each other out, resulting in a Neap tide, that is weaker and has a smaller difference between higher and lower tides.]]> 2018-09-27 20:07:34 UTC https://padlet.com/anna_axelson/8h5jvka25pfw/wish/286733265 anna_axelson https://padlet.com/anna_axelson/8h5jvka25pfw/wish/286968345 This is an example of what takes place when the tides rise and fall because of the moon. ]]> 2018-09-28 14:19:50 UTC https://padlet.com/anna_axelson/8h5jvka25pfw/wish/286968345 anna_axelson https://padlet.com/anna_axelson/8h5jvka25pfw/wish/286974946 This drawing showcases how the moon and sun's gravitational pull, resulting in two large bulges, or the tides.]]> 2018-09-28 14:30:42 UTC https://padlet.com/anna_axelson/8h5jvka25pfw/wish/286974946 anna_axelson https://padlet.com/anna_axelson/8h5jvka25pfw/wish/286978357 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1otfxSwaG5g]]> 2018-09-28 14:36:11 UTC https://padlet.com/anna_axelson/8h5jvka25pfw/wish/286978357 anna_axelson https://padlet.com/anna_axelson/8h5jvka25pfw/wish/286980459 In class, we barely touched on the subject of sandbars.
