Question 1   (1 point)As you're going to sleep early one
night you notice the rising moon in the center of the
constellation Aries. You get up early the next morning
before sunrise to do some flyfishing. The moon is still in
the sky, although getting ready to set in the west. What
constellation is it in?
a.Aries.   b.Cancer.   c.Gemini.   d.Taurus.   e.Pisces.
Why? Because during one night, essentially all the
motion of objects in the sky is due to the Earth’s
rotation, and everything turns together.
