Why moon is in red color?

Why moon is in red color?
1)Moon is in red color because only sunlight reaching to moon surface passes through Earth's atmosphere that reflects through it.
2)Sometimes the particles in atmosphere are scattering the light from the full moon, filtering out the cooler colors are just leaving bold oranges,red and pinks.

*Why moon is red sometimes?
1)The air molecules from Earth's atmosphere scattered out most of the blue light.The remaining light reflects on to the moon surface with a red glow, making the moon appears in the night sky.

1. The amount of dust particles, water droplets, clouds and mist of moon surface, affect the shade of moon,volcanic ash and dust in atmosphere can appear moon colour red.

• Why moon is looking red today?

1. Today same amount of light from Earth's sunrise and sunset falls on the surface of moon, because the light waves are stretched out, they look red.
2. Today red light strikes the moon surface,it appears red.

• Why is the moon red today in India?

1. Today,In India scattering of Sunlight by the earth's atmosphere as Red Light have longer wavelength, red light travels more directly through the atmosphere.

• Why does the moon looks reddish during the lunar eclipse?

1. During lunar eclipse ,the moon looks reddish because the only sunlight reaching the moon passes through Earth's atmosphere.
2. Moon looks reddish during a lunar eclipse because of the Rayleigh scattering ,"The same phenomenon that makes our sky blue and our sunset red causes the moon to turn red during a lunar eclipse."

*Why sometimes moon appear red?

1. Rayleigh scattering g is a phenomenon that causes the moon to turn red in colour.
2. During a full eclipse, the moon completely comes under the shadow of the Earth, and atmosphere of earth reflect light waves sincered light waves have longer wave length, it appears moon darker.

• Why is the moon sometimes red or Orange?

1. The moon sometimes red or Orange because moon's light travel a longer distance through the atmosphere.As it travel a longer path, more the shorter,blue wavelength of light are scattered away, leaving more of the longer redder wavelengths.(Dust or pollution can also depend reddish colour).

• Why moon changes shape?

1. Moon changes is shape because it has to revolve around the Earth and the light from the sun continuously changes due to the presence of earth between Moon and the Sun.
2. The Moon doesn't actually change in shape, it only look in different shape because of the relative positions of our Sun Earth and Moon,Moon emit the sunlight revolving around Earth.

• Why Moon doesn't fall on Earth?

1. Moon doesn't fall on earth because it's not still,it's constantly moves around are just as the Earth,just as the Earth's exerts a gravitational force on the Moon,the moon exerts is gravitational force in our planet.
2. Moon doesn't fall on earth the gravitational force between Earth and the Moon in strong,but not strong enough to pull Moon towards Earth.

• Why moon red eclipse?

1. During lunar eclipse, the moon turns red because moon is blocked by the shadow of earth making the sunlight reflects through Moon,since blue light have sorter wavelength it's scattered but red light have longer wavelength it directly reach to moon appearing in red colour.
2. Moreover the layer of air surrounding our planet is made up of different gases ,water droplets and dust particles, in Lunar eclipse the Earth atmosphere, the particles that are smaller than the light's wavelength, it gets scattered into different direction longer wavelengths like red and orange,pass through the atmosphere. This red orange light in then bent or refracted around Earth,hitting the surface of the moon and giving it the reddish- Orange glow that total lunar eclipse are famous for.

• Why moon has different phases?
  1)Every month moon has different phases:1)New Moon,2)First Quarter,3)Full Moon 4)Third Quarter.

1. Moon doesn't have its own light, it is light up by the Sun,as the moon orbits the Earth,the portion of illuminated moon that we see is reflected of Sunlight that reflects.
2. As moon revolves around Earth's orbit and Earth around sun's orbit, moon changes its phase.

• Why moon size changes Indian mythology?

1. According to Indian mythology, one night when Lord Ganesha was eating food, his friend Mushak steal his food. Lord Ganesha run to catch Mushak, he fell down.This incident is seen by Lord Chandra (moon) and he laugh at Lord Ganesha, Lord Ganesha get angry on moon and curse to lose his light.
2. When moon apologize Lord Ganesha, he say he may loose his light forever, but each month he will be in dark and started getting brighter to full at the end of the month.

• Why moon set direction West to East?

1. Moon set direction west to east because it sets Earth rotation on its Axis that make the setting.
2. The Earth rotates in clockwise direction on its axis and as a result,the Other celestial body such as the sun, stars appear to rise in the West and set in the East.

• Why moon attracts sea water?

1. The gravitational attraction between the Earth and the Sun is the strongest on the side of the Earth.That happens to be facing the moon,simply because it is closer. This attraction causes the water on this "near side" of Earth to be pulled towards the Moon.
2. Gravitation of Moon can only attract open bodies of water, such as Oceans and lakes,but not contained sources of water, such as the human brain.

• Why moon visible middle of day?

1. Moon visible middle of day because it is reflecting sunlight, when it come closer to earth makes its brighter than the daytime or night time Sky.
2. Moon visible middle of day because it is the closest object of the earth, and increasingly more of its sunlight surface is visible.

• Why moon turns red in low horizon?

1. Moon turns red in low Horizon because the Moon's light travel a longer distance through the atmosphere, as it travels a longer path, more of the shorter Blue wave length of light as scattered away, leaving more of the longer, redder wavelength (Dust or pollution can also Deepen the reddish colour).

• Why moon rises at different times?

1. The Earth rotates through 15 degrees every hour, in order to rotate 360 degrees every 24 hours. The moon is continually moving on ahead in its Orbit while the Earth rotates. So 24 hour later, the earth has rotated back around to the same place it was the night before,but the moon has gone on ahead.

*September 4,2017, why moon red?

1. On September 4,2017 the Moon phase was a waxing gibbous phase, where moon is only 50% illuminated.
   2)On September 4,2007, moon is red because dust particles of moon surface become red.

• Why moon is orange?

1. When moon appear low in the sky,it tends to have a more yellow and orange hue, compared when it's high overhead.
   2)Moon appear Orange in sky due to atmosphere of Earth's scattering of light,shorter wavelength of light are being filtered away, and only orange colour is seen by Eye.
