The phases we see result from the angle the Moon makes with the Sun as viewed from Earth. We only see the Moon because sunlight reflects back to us from its surface.]]> 2020-10-14 11:39:07 UTC https://padlet.com/christophersmith32/ktws1g7az0nw34al/wish/828229004 christophersmith32 https://padlet.com/christophersmith32/ktws1g7az0nw34al/wish/828231295 High and low tides are caused by the Moon. The Moon's gravitational pull generates something called the tidal force. The tidal force causes Earth—and its water—to bulge out on the side closest to the Moon and the side farthest from the Moon. These bulges of water are high tides.]]> 2020-10-14 11:40:41 UTC https://padlet.com/christophersmith32/ktws1g7az0nw34al/wish/828231295 christophersmith32 https://padlet.com/christophersmith32/ktws1g7az0nw34al/wish/828237839 Sometimes when the moon orbits Earth, it moves between the sun and Earth. When this happens, the moon blocks the light of the sun from reaching Earth. This causes an eclipse of the sun, or solar eclipse. During a solar eclipse, the moon casts a shadow onto Earth.]]> 2020-10-14 11:44:42 UTC https://padlet.com/christophersmith32/ktws1g7az0nw34al/wish/828237839 christophersmith32 https://padlet.com/christophersmith32/ktws1g7az0nw34al/wish/828243847 2020-10-14 11:48:24 UTC https://padlet.com/christophersmith32/ktws1g7az0nw34al/wish/828243847 christophersmith32 https://padlet.com/christophersmith32/ktws1g7az0nw34al/wish/828246749 2020-10-14 11:50:10 UTC https://padlet.com/christophersmith32/ktws1g7az0nw34al/wish/828246749 christophersmith32 https://padlet.com/christophersmith32/ktws1g7az0nw34al/wish/828255358 2020-10-14 11:55:14 UTC https://padlet.com/christophersmith32/ktws1g7az0nw34al/wish/828255358 christophersmith32 https://padlet.com/christophersmith32/ktws1g7az0nw34al/wish/828266674 The tilt of Earth's axis is about 23.5 degrees, but the tilt of the moon's axis is only about 1.5 degrees. As such, the moon virtually has no seasons. This means that some areas are always lit by sunlight, and other places are perpetually draped in shadow.]]> 2020-10-14 12:01:53 UTC https://padlet.com/christophersmith32/ktws1g7az0nw34al/wish/828266674 christophersmith32 https://padlet.com/christophersmith32/ktws1g7az0nw34al/wish/828271344 2020-10-14 12:04:24 UTC https://padlet.com/christophersmith32/ktws1g7az0nw34al/wish/828271344 christophersmith32 https://padlet.com/christophersmith32/ktws1g7az0nw34al/wish/828271945 2020-10-14 12:04:42 UTC https://padlet.com/christophersmith32/ktws1g7az0nw34al/wish/828271945 christophersmith32 https://padlet.com/christophersmith32/ktws1g7az0nw34al/wish/828272402 2020-10-14 12:04:54 UTC https://padlet.com/christophersmith32/ktws1g7az0nw34al/wish/828272402 christophersmith32 https://padlet.com/christophersmith32/ktws1g7az0nw34al/wish/828279776 2020-10-14 12:08:29 UTC https://padlet.com/christophersmith32/ktws1g7az0nw34al/wish/828279776 christophersmith32 https://padlet.com/christophersmith32/ktws1g7az0nw34al/wish/828281982 2020-10-14 12:09:29 UTC https://padlet.com/christophersmith32/ktws1g7az0nw34al/wish/828281982 christophersmith32 https://padlet.com/christophersmith32/ktws1g7az0nw34al/wish/828284356 2020-10-14 12:10:36 UTC https://padlet.com/christophersmith32/ktws1g7az0nw34al/wish/828284356 christophersmith32 https://padlet.com/christophersmith32/ktws1g7az0nw34al/wish/828285066 2020-10-14 12:10:55 UTC https://padlet.com/christophersmith32/ktws1g7az0nw34al/wish/828285066
