Explain how the moon is sometimes visible in the daytime?

The moon rises and sets every day, appearing on the horizon just like the sun. The time depends on the phase of the moon. It rises about 30 to 70 minutes later each day than the previous day, so the moon is out during daytime as often is it's out at night. At the time of the new moon, the moon rises at about the same time the sun rises, and it sets at about the same time the sun sets. As the days go by (as it waxes to become a crescent moon, a half moon, and a gibbous moon, on the way to a full moon), the moon rises during daytime (after the sun rises), rising later each day, and it sets at nighttime, setting later and later each night. At the full moon, the times of moonrise and moonset have advanced so that the moon rises about the same time the sun sets, and the moon sets at about the same time the sun rises. As the moon wanes (becoming a half moon and a crescent moon, on the way to a new moon), the moon rises during the night, after sunset, rising later each night. It then sets in the daytime, after the sun rises. Eventually, the moon rises so late at night that it's actually rising around sunrise, and it's setting around sunset. That's when it's a new moon once again.

The moon orbits the earth.  It does not 'rise'.  Look in any good newspaper to see what time it is visible in your area.  This information can be found in the weather section.

The appearance of the Moon is also dependent on the fact the the Earth is rotating on its axis. Objects appear at the horizon, drift overhead and slip below the horizon again. that is the main reason the Moon looks as it does.\n\n;-D The Moon is romantic! Let's not forget that!

Beacause asit goes around the Earth it becomes closer and further away during its cycle.  The moon is in an oval orbit.\nhttp://stardate.org/nightsky/moon/

The moon is only visible because the Sun light reflects off of it. Even if the Sun is in the sky at the  same time, we will see it. The Moon circles the Earth every 28 days. While the Earth rotates once every 24 hours. The result is that the Moon seems to change position in the sky by 1/28 of a full rotation every day. During that cycle, the Sun and Moon will be in the daytime sky at least half the time. Sometimes we don't notice the Moon because it is only a small wedge or the clouds hide it. \nBy the way, Venus is also visible during daylight hours during some of it's rotation,  but it is a very tiny  pinpoint of light and is very hard to locate even if it is bright.

Its an illusion.  Its because the moon is closer to objects to which you can compare it.

It has to do with refraction due to different densities of air-in cooler climates, there tends to be much warmer air near the surface, with colder air in higher altitudes, plus the colder air is much more dense, so acts like a magnifying lense- The very largest moon-views are always seen close to the horizon because of this.

That has happened for the past week, right? Well, when the moon is behind the earth relatively to the sun, it's seen as full; but along the next 2 weeks the moon is going to make her way in the direction of the sun, so when it's halfway it's seen half-illuminated (in the half looking to the sun), in broad daylight... that's the phase "last quarter moon". Slowly day by day you'll notice the moon gets thinners and thinner, and closer to the sun... until one day you don't see it - that's because she's very near the sun from where we stand - and we see her "behind" which is not illuminated.

On new moon day, the moon and sun are in the same direction from earth.\n\nThe non illuminated portion of the moon is turned toward us. In the bright background of light we are not able to see the moon.\n\nSince the earth rotates about its axis, this new moon is for all in the world.  \nThe sun and moon rises in the east and sets in the west almost with no time difference.\nTherefore the moon is in the sky during day time, even though we are not able to see it.\n\nIn each day, the moon separates from the sun approximately by 12 degree.\n\nAfter one or two days latter, the moon is separated from the sun towards east. Therefore, we see the moon (crescent moon) after sun set for few hours in the west or in the   evening. All persons in the world will view the crescent moon when it is evening for them.\n\nApproximately after seven days, the moon separates from the sun through 90 degree. \n When the sun comes to the zenith, the moon rises in the east. The moon appears as a half moon in the east. For the viewers it is a day time. We see the half moon from the afternoon of this day till mid night in the sky. At mid night it sets in the West. \n When the sun sets in the west the moon is seen in the zenith. All people in the world will see the half moon from mid day to mid night.\n\n\nAfter approximately fifteen days, the moon is separated from the sun through 180 degree. When the sun sets in the west moon rises in the west. We call this as full moon. Through out the night the full moon will be visible and during day time it will not be visible. This is the same for all people in the world. \n\nOne can complete this cycle from Full moon to new moon (in another 15 days).

You only see one side of the moon from the Earth because the moon spins and rotates at just the right speeds.  As the moon revolves around the Earth it also spins around it's axis.  These two speeds happen to be just right so that the same side of the moon is always facing the Earth.  The phases of the moon are caused by the Earth casting a shadow on the moon, you can only see the part of the moon that's reflecting light from the Sun.

The truth is, the moon obviously orbits the earth, right? So you look up and see the moon in the time of day, it is at an angle where other parts of the Earth can see it, sometimes the moon is here in the day time because it is on the same side as we are facing the sun, if it is during the night time, we see the moon because it has orbited behind the Earth, it takes the moon a certain amount of time to get around the Earth.

When the light from the sun hits the moon, it is reflected to us which causes "Moonlight". This is the same light and source that allows us to see a bit of the shadows on the moon. \n\nThe suns and moons position in relation to one another is also what gives us the phases of the moon.  When the moon is directly opposite of the sun (with Earth not being directly in the line of sight) this gives us our full moon. \n\nIn short, there is only one type of light on the moon, the suns light hitting the moons surface.

The moon reflects sunlight and even reflected sunlight can interact with droplets of water in the atmosphere such as thin clouds like a layer of fog.  You see the light as a ring because that is the angle of reflection (or refraction) of light from the moon through the moisture's spherical drops to your eyes.  The moon can even produce moonbows, similar to rainbows (but no pot of gold?).

The reason you can see the moon in the sky during the day is because at that time the moon has rotated to where it is inbetween the earth and the sun.  So they are both visable at the same time.  It takes 28 for the moon to circle the earth, this is also the cause of moon phases, such as full moon/ new moon ect.

Light from the moon passing through Ice crystals in Earth's upper atmosphere.\n\nI have included links to a couple of web pages that include photos and explanations.

The moon is visible all over the world (not just the Western hemisphere).  In a 24 hour period the moon will be above the horizon for 12 of those hours.  Depending on where the moon is in it's orbit relative to the sun determines when it is visible in the day.  \n\nNew moon is when the moon is nearest the sun, and full moon is when it is furthest away.  That is why a full moon is really only visible at night.  \n\nFirst quarterr moon rises about noon and sets about midnight.  Last quarte moon rises about midnight and sets around noon.\n\nThe moon is brighter than the sky at daytime and so it is visible even against the blue sky of a sunny day.

Because the moon reflects light from the sun.
