      Have any of you noticed that the crescent moon used to be crescent from top to bottom and now it is more side to side??? So, if you didn’t understand what I am saying try this… crescent moon used to be a “(” or “)” now it is more of a ”u” shape and an “n” shape, so instead of it being top to bottom it is now more side to side. Has anyone else noticed this or am I just crazy???

The moon doesn't rotate like this idiot said it does. If the moon was a ball you'd see the other side of it but we don't. Look at it at moon rise and moon set, it tilts/spins like a steering wheel and not like a ball. Flat earth proofs... Check out these CZcams channels... A potters clay, DITRH, Eric Dubay, A plane truth 5, hundreds of good truther channels out there. Can't argue with facts and 100% agrees with the Bible and is a proven fact we're not on a globe. This is Satan's world, I know you dumb brainwashed children were taught there is no God no devil no heaven or hell but there is, heaven above hell below.

    When she places the white ball between her head and the light , she says it is no moon day as there is no light on the moon. And then the crescent moon appears. But this time earth is facing the sun which means day time in the earth. What about the the darker side of the earth which normally witnesses moon ? We only see crescent moon during the night and not during the day time. Something is wrong in this explanation .

    • @oscarin13
      @oscarin13 Před 6 lety +4

      It's not wrong, but rather simplistic.
      - "she says it is no moon day as there is no light on the moon"
      That's called a New Moon, yes. A little correction there though, the Moon is illuminated during a New Moon but on the far side. The side facing us is not receiving any sunlight.
      - "And then the crescent moon appears. But this time earth is facing the sun which means day time in the earth."
      Yes, and?
      - "What about the the darker side of the earth which normally witnesses moon"
      Therefore, at this particular phase they don't see the Moon. You can see the Moon during the night when it's still crescent and almost half-full. When it's very recent (when it looks very dim and kind of like a recently cut nail) it will set an hour or so after sunset.
      - ''We only see crescent moon during the night and not during the day time''
      Wrong. We can see the crescent Moon when it's almost half-full during the day, but not when it's very recent.

      I'm not so sure about that. I've seen many comments posted here that make it obvious that people still think it's the earth's shadow that causes the shaded area on the moon's surface, despite having watched the video.

    • @sailorman8668

      And yet, this particular video makes no mention of why there isn't a solar or lunar eclipse every month.
      That's quite a glaring omission, which many other videos do actually address.

    • @wolfchic636

      Yes, you are correct. However, the Moon's orbit is tilted slightly, which doesn't allow this to happen every month. She doesn't cover this detail in this video. I do a similar activity with my students and then we add this to the discussion and begin talking about eclipses and why don't see them every month. I think for the purpose of the video, it would be difficult to show a new moon without blocking the light because the light would create quite a glare on the camera making it difficult to see what is happening on the Moon. But, I understand your point.

    • @SWIGDOG913
