There's a half moon tonight.
It looks like half of a disc.
It has occurred to me this doesn't make sense.

NASA image


On crescent moons you can see the occlusion which makes the moon crescent shaped.
This occurs on all phases of crescent.
But on half moons, you can't see the shape of the earth, its just cut in half.

On partial crescents, sometimes the shadow is opposite of an occlusion.

Starting at the top left image as 1, there are 23 images. New Moon makes up the 24th image.

Image 1 depicts a distinct crescent showing an occlusion of a round Earth.
This holds true till image 6 at image 9 thru 11 the occlusion reverses showing a concave Earth.

This doesn't make sense?
Images 1 - 11 should have the same crescent orientation.

If anything, the moon should appear like sliced circles and should not have crescent shapes at all because of the Earth/moon size ratio and proximity.



So .....you're saying the universe is wrong?

Nah, just perplexed about what I see and what makes sense.

Shine a light thru a circular matte and you get a lit circle.
Slowly move a ball across the matte and you get a crescent in the same direction until you have full occlusion, then the crescent switches to the other direction as the ball moves along its track.

The Earth is round. It has a round occlusion on a bright moon from its round shadow. The crescent occlusion should remain the same direction all the way across the moon. It doesn't, it inverts? It makes no sense yet we see it all the time. NASA even photographed it.

Maybe there is a scientific explanation but I have no idea what it could be?

Its like rain.
What keeps all that water in clouds before it rains?
The water is obviously there, in the cloud before it rains. What force acts against gravity to keep the water in the air? Y'all might not be pay'in attention but there are thousands of gallons of water which fall during a rain storm. Water is heavy ('bout 8 lbs per gallon), how does all that water stay in the clouds till it rains.
Makes no sense.

Thinking... cool, Penney's sent me a 20% coupon for my next shopping day, and it doesn't expire until a month from now.

i'm thinking actually it does make sense tom.
1st off the moon and earth are both spheres so some of the apparent crescent shape comes from added depth of the sphere shape of the moon and the light line climbing the bulge of the moons sphere.
2nd the occlusion is caused be earth blocking the light and since earth only goes in one direction the occlusion progresses in one direction until the sun hit the moon from the other side of the earth an d starts the process over

the light line climbing the bulge of the moons sphere

Thanx, yeah, that makes sense.
You don't get that on a silhouette on a wall but on a ball...yup, makes sense.
I was using the wrong equipment for the application.

What about the anti-gravity of water in clouds?
Got anything on that?

Be careful, you could end up with "M2 Guru Status".
I don't think that washes off with water.
Lil kids 'an wimmens will be raising their arms and bowing while chanting "Oh Great One" as you pass by.

Maybe this clip helps, she uses a foam ball.
There's more clips like this on YT.

Well, me doesn't like fishing that much, hihi.
I am getting better at certain things though. Remember months ago I was struggling to work out the 3 & 5 gallon puzzle they do in Die Hard, having to get exactly 4 gallons?
The other day I was watching it again, I paused to see if I could still do it, and hell!! I could've stopped that bomb haha.
And thinking about it now, I still know it.

Me is very proud of myself. I'm totally crap with such things.

The moon... I happened to look that up last year as me and my son were talking about it. And I can never remember what turns around what, lol.

The moon phases are not caused by Earth’s shadow, we are seeing the light side from the
sun hitting it vs. the dark side as we rotate around in space :)

Brain is in overtime.

Considering:
I was thinking two-dimensional.
Eric suggested three dimentional.
It made sense to me.

I'm now thinking there might be things which make sense in 4th, 5th, 6th and so on dimenstions but we may not be able tpo fathom them.
Just as there is a distinction of Earth/Moon display differences between two and three dimensions, so may there not be differences between other 3 to 4, 5, 6 and so on dimensions?
Perhaps what we 'know' as fact is not really the fact we think we know?
Perhaps, it is all relative to our own perception and the reality of it remains outside our ability to comprehend?
At which point, where is reality and where is conjecture?
How do we know what we think we understand is actually what is in reality?

A misalignment with reality beyond our control?
How can you know?
What can you prove?
How could you 'know' what you are trying to prove is reality and not just your imagination?

Perhaps, just like rain, we accept it as reality and just live our lives the best we can.
Perhaps its not important to understand everything.
But it is a lot of fun thinking about it.
