Physical Features: Phases of the Moon
• P1 - Time for the Moon to orbit around the Earth once
• P2 - Direction of the Moon’s rotation around the Moon
• P3 - Time for the Moon to complete its cycle of phases.
• P4 - Cause of Phases
• P5 - General Direction of the Moon’s rising
• P6 - Change in phase over time
• P7 - Phase and Sun-Earth-Moon positions
• P8 - Phase - location in sky - time of observation relationship
• P9 - Effect on Moon phase with Change in location on Earth
