Title: it doesnt make sense that the moon can be so bright when the sky is dark
Post by: Marty Champions on March 10, 2012, 07:54:48 PM: and the sun is so supposobly so fucking huge on the other side of the earth that it supposobly is reflecting on the moon giving the moon its light

the sun is not as big as they say it is, if the sun is shining by china it should still illuminate the sky, the earth is like a grain of sand and the sun is big as a basketball in comparison

the sun seems to seletively illuminate the moon fully wich doesnt make sense especially when the moon is directly overhead in the night sky on some rare occasions

Post by: tbombz on March 10, 2012, 08:08:10 PM: i would draw a picture for you if could.

the suns rays do not land on half of the earths surface at any given time.

when its night, the sun isnt shedding light on your half of the planet.

the suns rays are filling up that dark night sky above you, and if anything was up in that space it would shine bright as if it was day time. but since that space is empty, there is nothing to reflect the suns rays back down to your eye balls, and all stays dark.

the moon is up there in the sky, recieving a face full of sun rays, reflecting some of them down into your eye ball whenever you look in its direction. which is why its lit up.

I agree. If the earth losses some water by the evening show it could win. Sun is always playing the bulking game.

wow I didn't know earth was that close, yes it makes one wonder doesn't it, the light should also come in from the side angels and should only be night at the furthest tip of the earth, if that.

sunlight would reflect in the atmosphere, at least 20 hours a day

unless this pic is made for scale comparison only

Yes, scale comparison only. In that illustration, they have placed the earth approx 100,000 miles from the sun. We're about 93,000,000 miles away from that hot smelly bastard.

Class dismissed.

Lol wow I can't believe how fucking stupid you are. It's common sense but besides that u do realise how Sun isn't a big star regardless. There are suns that are millions yea million times bigger even in our galaxy let alone our universe. Omg I can't even begin to explain anything I feel it'd get me no where like wow we learned this in elementry school.

Post by: lyquid on March 11, 2012, 10:35:20 AM: Wrap your drugged out mind on this for a few hours. There are two hundred billion stars ( suns) in our tiny galaxy which it is fairly small. Yet 125 billion galaxys visible to us. 125 x 200 billion . Just that we can see. So really are we one in a million.

Post by: NeilGM on March 11, 2012, 12:18:04 PM: Ok back to school here... The reason space does not light up is that it is a void/vaccume with very little in it. Light is only visable when reflects off matter such as the moon. Light travels from the sun (which is a very large ball of mass), this light is pure bright white and can not be seen with the human eye... It travels in straight lines (in frequencys actually but its straight as far as you are concerned) this then hits an object like the moon and the light is bounced back to you who is staring up up at it in the night sky..

The reason the sky lights up is the sky is and atmosphere made up of gasss, particually the o-zone layer, when light filters through it as it comes straight from the sun the light alters and the eye sees this as the bright blue sky on a clear day. When its night time your in the shadow of the half of the planet in the day time so the light does not make its way through the atmosphere and light it up (in basic terms)
