fr bro, I've been going through too many vids for this explanation and Jared saved me 😭😭

Anudari Batjargal our phases aren't caused by the earth's shadow, but 7 translucent disks that also cause our solar eclipses. The ancient cultures and Asian religion call it rahu or black sun.

Dwayne Newton Ancient cultures got it wrong.

for some reason this is more entertaining than my teacher teaching

@@MrElement80 where are these translucent disks now? Seems like they should dim the stars. If you could locate them it would make for compelling evidence for your position.

@@MrElement80 Seven translucent disks nobody has ever seen and nobody will ever see. The amount of BS that some people believe is astonishing.

Thank you! Much appreciated

@@JaredOwen THE SIMPLE, PROPER, FULL, AND BALANCED UNDERSTANDING OF THE SHAPE, FORM, AND RELATIONAL MOTION OF WHAT IS THE MOON IN UNIVERSAL ACCORDANCE WITH THE FACT THAT E=MC2 IS F=MA: What is THE MOON is moving AND not moving IN BALANCED RELATION to the Earth AND the Sun AS a linked AND BALANCED opposite in accordance with the UNIVERSAL fact that E=mc2 IS F=ma. THEREFORE, the rotation of WHAT IS THE MOON necessarily matches it's revolution; AS gravity/acceleration involves BALANCED inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Accordingly, the shape AND form of the Moon is basically constant or invariant. The Moon is a BALANCED MIDDLE DISTANCE manifestation or form that is in fundamental accordance with the Earth/Sun BALANCE pursuant to the fact that E=mc2 IS F=ma. GREAT !!! Therefore, the Moon is electromagnetically/gravitationally extended AND contracted ON BALANCE in true agreement with the fact that E=mc2 IS F=ma. Gravitational force/ENERGY IS proportional to (or BALANCED with/as) inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE, AS E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. "Mass"/ENERGY involves BALANCED inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE consistent with/AS what is BALANCED electromagnetic/gravitational force/ENERGY, AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY; AS E=mc2 IS F=ma. It ALL CLEARLY makes perfect sense. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. By Frank DiMeglio

They dislike _everything_ that's connected to science and logic and the real world!

😂

😂😂😂😂 absolutely not! The video Is not that clear.... I've seen better ones

What Dislikes?

Oh thanks I was a bit confused

thanks for the pertinent clarification

Thanks I always though humans were 2,000 kilometers tall or the earth was just 10 meters across

Yall are related

Your welcome!

@@JaredOwen I think you meant 'You're welcome'? You do know the difference between 'your' and 'you're', right?

Thank you Lester!

Adjusting the speed to 0.75 can work wonders.

Thanks Rebecca!

Glad to hear that

Thanks! More space videos coming right up

Stop it 😅

Yes, you can use it in your class. The moon's phases are created the same way. The moon's position and orientation is just different depending where you're located. YOu don't hear people on the equator complaining, nor those in northern Sweden.

Or those that believe science is stagnant, nothing in science is settled. Our understanding of ANY GIVEN subject is ever changing.

One can also say that the phases are caused by us seeing more or less of the Moon's sunlit side as it orbits the Earth.

I see you are a man of culture 😅👍

Thank you!

Thank you Steven - this one took awhile but not as long as some of my other videos

Definitely not a dumb question! In fact a very intelligent intuitive question. Yes, we do see a small portion of the "Dark Side" of the Moon throughout its normal phases, we call this libration. And there are three types of libration. It permits an observer to see slightly different portions of the surface at different times. It is similar in both cause and effect to the changes in the Moon's apparent size due to changes in distance. It is caused by three mechanisms two of which are causing a relatively tiny physical libration via tidal forces exerted by the Earth. Such true librations are known as well for other moons with tidal lock rotation. Libration in longitude: results from the eccentricity of the moon's orbit around Earth; the Moon's rotation sometimes leads and sometimes lags its orbital position. The lunar libration in longitude can reach +/_ 7°54′ in amplitude. Libration in latitude: results from a slight inclination (about 6.7°) between the Moon's axis of rotation and the normal, to the plane of its orbit around Earth. (Its origin is analogous to how the seasons arise from Earth's revolution about the Sun). It can reach +/_ 6°50′ in amplitude. Diurnal libration: is a small daily oscillation due to Earth's rotation, which carries an observer first to one side and then to the other side of the straight line joining Earth's and the Moon's centers, allowing the observer to look first around one side of the Moon and then around the other-since the observer is on Earth's surface, not at its center. It reaches less than 1° in amplitude.

@@michaelwalsh3980 thank you very much! it looks like they dont teach you this in 6th grade, i couldn't really find a detailed answer on the internet without knowing that it's called "libration" and i was really afraid of getting turned down but instead i got a really helpful and detailed answer! i cant thank you enough mister michael!

The effects described by Michael Walsh allows us to see up to 59 % of the Moon's surface in total, but never more than 50 % at any given time - and less than that when the Moon isn't full.

@@ok-zf1sd If at all possible, never refer to the far side of the moon as the dark side. The side of the moon that never faces earth, does in fact receive just as much sunlight as the near side, so calling it the 'dark side' is rather non-sensical.

Obviously the sun can be seen from either pole, so why would you expect the moon to be any different?

@@sailorman8668 don't be mean

​@@salmamaqsudi8991 In what way is my response being 'mean'?

Thanks for watching my older videos!

Mathias Kp our phases aren't caused by the earth's shadow, but 7 translucent disks that also cause our solar eclipses. The ancient cultures and Asian religion call it rahu or black sun.

@@MrElement80 This guy gets it.

I think some have but it still doesn't help them🤔 There will never be enough proof

@@JaredOwen I can agree but I think the issue is that they would then have to explain how you know how to predict the moons phases and their model can't. It's got to change the opinions of some of the twisted minds out there.
