Hold it in your hand and rotate it with you." "Both of you have one of the points, two points for each of you. The other observation is that there is always half of the moon facing the sun, making it the only lighted patch.
"This is way we see the lunar phases, half the moon is always lightened by the sun, but which half depends on the moons position in orbit.
"Who can tell me when the New and Full moons happen?" (ooc: I am not looking for a date, I'm looking for imagery based on the activity we just did) "New moons, are when the moon doesn't show, and full moons are moons that are fully shown" she said lowering her hand.
