Phases of the Moon

A lunar phase or phase of the moon refers to the appearance of the illuminated portion of the Moon as seen by an observer, usually on Earth. The lunar phases vary cyclically as the Moon orbits the Earth, according to the changing relative positions of the Earth, Moon and Sun....I was asked to keep a 6 week journal of the moon, to illustrate verbally and visually what I see each night for six weeks of consectutive days . I will post my observations and pictures regularily. Enjoy!!

Tuesday 2/15


Ok so tonight I went out my front door to observe the moon and I couldn’t find it,
at first I thought it just wasn’t visible; then I let my dog out sometime later (out of my back door)
and the moon was there?! Completely opposite side of the house that it has been since I started
this journal!!! Very big and bright, was able to see most of it.
