Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The light bulb would represent the Sun, the participant’s head the Earth, and the Styrofoam™ ball the Moon. The participant would observe the changes in Moon phase as the Moon ball “orbits” their head, the Earth.
Detailed explanation-2: -As the Moon orbits our planet, its varying position means that the Sun lights up different regions, creating the illusion that the Moon is changing shape over time. The best way of getting to understand the lunar phases is to regularly go out on a clear night when the Moon is in the sky and observe it.
