Question

In one revolution of the moon it's orbit intersects the earth s orbit only once

Answer 1

Answer:

There is an imaginary line on the sky that marks the annual path of the sun; this is the It is the projection of Earth’s orbit onto the celestial sphere.

The moon takes 27 days to orbit the Earth. If the moon orbited in the same plane as the ecliptic, we would have two eclipses every month. There’d be an eclipse of the moon at every full moon. And, two weeks later, there’d be an eclipse of the sun at new moon for a total of at least 24 eclipses every year.

But the moon’s orbit is inclined to Earth’s orbit by about 5 degrees. Twice a month the moon intersects the ecliptic at points called nodes. If the full moon or new moon is appreciably close - within 0.5 degrees of the plane of the ecliptic - to one of these nodes, only then an eclipse occurs
