Earthshine Sheds Light on Moon, and Our Planet

[zeexenon]

Did any astronomy buff publish a close-up of the moon yesterday, 4/8/24 during the eclipse and capture it's earthshine? I've done this at full moon and can see it very clearly. Tom TGP

I would go as far as to say that the moon has its own light source!

[larrylawless]

If this is really how it worked it wouldn't be uniform like it is at all it'd be changing by the second

[turboromy]

Not a flat earther or mooner, but when I see a full moon it appears flat. Why isn't center brighter but gradually dims toward edge? More light would be reflected away, away from surface center of moon thus less light should come to our eyes and should appear darker.

Why isn’t the moon lit with earth shine during a “solar eclipse” and rather look more like a black void?

[jtsales]

This is by far the best explanation of the reflection I've heard coming from the globe earth model. The idea that the moon both reflects and is a rock is dumb, unless the moon is a Dimond.

[ArcanoDCUO]

And thats why the moons has these patterns, its a print of earth's reflection

[podhuselvam]

Why the sunlight cannot directly enter into the moon?

It is He Who made the sun a shining thing and the moon as a light and measured out for it stages that you might know the number of years and the reckoning - Yunus verse 5, Quran (Before DaVinci)

Ahhh I see so how come we can only see half the moon sometimes 😂😂😂

[looknheal]

This is impossible. This is directly against the square law of light and snells law.

[MichaelOdomwestthAve]

The moon phases have nothing to do with climate change.

[driftwood]

The moon doesn't exist at all, it is just earth reflecting on the firmarment

[mariegeorge]

Earthiness millions of light years away 😂😂
