Gibbous moon rising over a coastal cliff
Moon. A gibbous moon rising over a coastal cliff. The moon passes through a complete set of phases, from new moon to new moon, once every 29.53 days (a synodic month). It is described as gibbous when more than half its disc is illuminated. The moon does not produce its own light, but it can be seen because it reflects the light of the sun. The dark areas, or seas, are the remains of ancient plains of lava. Craters visible are the result of meteorite impacts. The same side of the moon always faces the earth. Photographed over Lands End, at Cabo San Lucas in Baja California, Mexico

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the mesmerizing sight of a gibbous moon rising majestically over a rugged coastal cliff. The moon, an enchanting celestial body, undergoes a complete cycle of phases every 29.53 days, transitioning from new moon to new moon. During its gibbous phase, more than half of its disc is brilliantly illuminated by the sun's radiant light. Contrary to popular belief, the moon does not emit its own light but rather reflects the luminosity bestowed upon it by our nearest star. As we gaze at this image, we can appreciate how the lunar surface showcases dark areas known as seas - remnants of ancient lava plains - and craters formed due to meteorite impacts. A remarkable aspect of our lunar companion is that it always presents one face towards Earth, creating an eternal bond between us and this celestial marvel. This photograph was taken above Lands End in Cabo San Lucas, Baja California in Mexico; showcasing not only the ethereal beauty of the gibbous moon but also highlighting nature's breathtaking coastal landscape. Immerse yourself in wonder as you witness this awe-inspiring scene where science meets artistry – a testament to humanity's fascination with astronomy and cosmology. Let your imagination soar under the night sky as you contemplate the mysteries hidden within this print from Science Photo Library.
