The gravitational pull of the moon and the rotation of the earth, coupled with the centripetal force of the earth, causes two high tides and two low tides throughout the day. Find out why the tides don't occur in the same cycle as the rotation of the earth with help from the chair of a department of environmental studies in this video on the moon and tides.

"The Tale of the Sun and the Moon" is a lullaby about why the sun appears during the day and the moon appears at night. It's a song about two best friends who can't really be together as much as they would like. The song is from the CD, Snail's Pace, by Eric Herman (also available on his 'The Kid in the Mirror' album), and was adapted from a poem by Kenn Nesbitt. The illustrations in the video were made by Lauren Wilson and the video was conceived and directed by Eric and Roseann Endres. (02:59)

The Moon, Earth's only natural satellite and one of the brightest objects in its sky, appears in the sky in many different shapes. Over the course of a month, the observed shapes result from the interaction of the Moon's orbit around Earth and reflected sunlight. In this interactive resource adapted from the National Air and Space Museum, learn about the relationship between the Moon's orbit and its phases. This is an interactive website that includes animation. The site addresses the phases of the moon, eclipses, and a blue moon.

'A Trip to the Moon' is a 1902 French black-and-white silent science-fiction film. The film was written and directed by Georges Melies and is best-known of the hundreds of fantasy films he made. This film is one of the first to utilize special effects, including the iconic shot of the rocket landing in the moon's eye. This video would be an excellent accompaniment to the study of the book The Invention of Hugo Cabret. (10:29)
