  2. The side of the moon that is facing the Earth is called: • Far side • Near side • Dark side • Light side

  3. Does the direction of the Earth’s tilt change as it goes around in orbit? • Yes • No

  4. Which moon phase is this? • Waning gibbous • Waxing quarter • Waxing crescent • Waning crescent

  5. The spinning of a planet on its axis is called: • An orbit • A revolution • A rotation • Circling

  6. The penumbra is: • The darker shadow. • What they use during monsoons. • The red color on the moon during a lunar eclipse. • The lighter shadow.

  7. The moon was created by: • Captured asteroid in the orbit • Body the size of Mars that collided into earth and the fragments clumped together • Asteroids were drawn together by gravity and clumped together.

  8. If the Earth’s tilt were at zero, would there be seasons? • Yes • No

  9. Which moon phase is this? • 1st quarter • Full moon • 2nd quarter • 3rd quarter

  10. The motion of a planet traveling around the sun is called • An orbit • A revolution • A rotation • Circling

  11. A lunar eclipse is: • The moon blocking the sun • The moon in Earth’s shadow • The moon perpendicular to the Earth • The moon blocking the Earth.

  12. The light colored areas of the moon are: • The areas that are of higher elevation • The areas that are of lower elevation • Frozen methane • Ice

  13. What causes the seasons? • Earth gets closer to the sun in the summer • The sun gets warmer in the summer • The days are longer in the summer • The tilt of Earth’s axis towards the sun in summer.

  14. What causes moon phases? • The Earth’s shadow • The sun’s shadow • The moon’s position relative to the Earth and Sun. • The far side (dark side) of the moon is being shown.

  15. A path by which an object travels in space: • path • trail • orbit • umbra

  16. How many high tides do you expect per day? • 1 • 2 • 3 • 4

  17. What are the dark areas on the moon called? • craters • Lava fields • basalt • mare

  18. In Corvallis, the angle of sunlight becomes more concentrated in this season: • Winter • Spring • Summer • Fall

  19. How long does it take the moon to orbit the Earth? • 1 day • 1 week • 1 month • 1 year

  20. Waxing means: • growing • shrinking • expanding • Good surfboard maintenance

  21. What causes the tides? • Earth’s rotation • Wind • The moon’s revolution • Sunspots

  22. How much closer was the moon to the Earth when the moon formed? • 10 times • Same, it has not changed • 20 times • 100 times

  23. If it were fall in Sydney, Australia, what season would it be in Corvallis? • Fall • Winter • Spring • Summer

  24. Can you see a moon phase during the daytime? • Yes • No

  25. What is an umbra? • The light portion of the shadow. • The dark portion of the shadow. • The red color of the moon during a lunar eclipse. • A term Hawaiian surfers use when they are stumped.

  26. What is a solar eclipse? • The moon blocking the sun • The moon in Earth’s shadow • The moon perpendicular to the Earth • The moon blocking the Earth
