4th April 2017

Same day, 8 hours later. Look how the angle of shadow has changed, now top right to bottom left.

You can also see moon daytime and nighttime. If you were standing on the bottom right of the moon you would be able to see the Sun but if you were standing on the top left of the moon it would be dark.

You would also be either very hot or very cold because the Moon has no atmosphere so cannot keep the Sun's heat at nighttime.

First quarter phase. Distance 234,091 miles.

Compass west, 260 degrees.

Clear skies, great for Moon watching.
