The earth rotates counterclockwise on its axis. Because of this, in which direction does the moon appear to move across the sky?.

Respuesta :

The moon will follow the same path the sun does. It appears to move east-west.
Answer: east-west

Because Earth rotates on its axis from west to east, the Moon and the Sun (and all other celestial objects) appear to move from east to west across the sky. Viewed from above, however, the Moon orbits Earth in the same direction as our planet rotates.
