The moon doesn't always rise and set at night, sometimes it rises and sets during the day.

This is dependent on the phase of the moon.

The moon circles the earth once every 28 days.

The closer to full the moon is, the more hours it spends in the sky at night, because it is on the opposite side of the earth as the sun. That's why it is full - the sun is behind you, lighting the moon in front of you. A completely full moon will rise as the sun sets, and set as the sun rises, and will be visible all night.

The closer to "new" the moon is, the fewer hours it spends in the sky during the night, and the more time it spends during the day because it is on the SAME side of the earth as the sun. It appears "new" because the sun is behind it, lighting the far side of the moon. A completely new moon will rise and set with the sun, and will only be visible in the day.. or briefly at dusk.

A half-moon is up half the day and half the night. If you don't see a half-moon at night, it has either already set or hasn't risen yet.

One popular legend is about the creation of Finland by a giant called Kaleva, who shaped the land by hurling rocks into the sea. Another myth involves the mysterious creature called the "menninkäinen," a gnome-like being believed to live in the forests and guard hidden treasures. Additionally, the story of the "Kalevala," Finland's national epic, features tales of ancient heroes and mythical creatures.

A wormhole is named because it's thought to resemble a tunnel made by a worm boring through an apple. Theoretically, wormholes could allow for faster-than-light travel, but there is no evidence to suggest they can be used for time travel. Time travel through wormholes remains a concept largely explored in science fiction.

The atmosphere of a story refers to the overall feeling or mood created by the setting, tone, and events within the narrative. It encompasses the emotional tone, ambiance, and sensory details that establish the environment in which the story takes place, influencing the reader's emotional response and engagement with the text.

• Quasar: a massive and extremely remote celestial object that emits large amounts of energy
• Quantum: relating to the smallest indivisible unit of energy in a physical interaction
• Quark: a type of elementary particle and a fundamental constituent of matter
• Quasiparticle: a collective excitation of elementary particles that behaves like a particle

When the term wane is used for the moon, it relates to the moon's phases. There are eight phases, the new moon, the full moon, 1st quarter, 3rd quarter, waning gibbous, waning crescent, waxing gibbous and waxing crescent. In your case, a wane moon means that it is getting smaller. A waxing moon or crescent means that it is getting bigger.

The horizon is the apparent line where the sky meets the earth or sea. It appears due to the curvature of the Earth; as you look out, the Earth's surface appears to meet the sky in the distance, creating the horizon line.

The law of the stars refers to the natural order and patterns established in the universe. It symbolizes the idea that everything in the cosmos follows a predetermined course and that events on Earth may be influenced by celestial phenomena. In a broader sense, it can also allude to concepts of fate, destiny, and interconnectedness with the universe.

St. Petersburg, Russia experiences the phenomenon of "White Nights" in June and July due to its high latitude. During this time, the sun only dips below the horizon briefly, keeping the sky bright throughout the night. This unique phenomenon occurs because St. Petersburg is located near the Arctic Circle, where the sun does not fully set during the summer months.

No, astronomical twilight does not end near the summer solstice when observed from Greenwich, England. On the summer solstice, which is around June 21st, astronomical twilight usually ends in the early morning hours before sunrise.

Areas near the equator receive roughly 12 hours of daylight throughout the year because the equator receives the most direct sunlight, leading to a nearly equal length of day and night. The tilt of the Earth’s axis contributes to longer days and shorter nights in summer and the reverse in winter, but near the equator, this effect is minimal due to the direct angle of sunlight.

Astronomical twilight is the period when the sun is between 12 and 18 degrees below the horizon, resulting in a dark blue sky with no sunlight. Night follows astronomical twilight, when the sun is more than 18 degrees below the horizon and the sky is completely dark with no sunlight.
