A numerical representation of what point in a day it is. Commonly, the time is displayed in hours, followed by minutes, and then seconds. There are 24 hours in one day, 1,440 minutes in a one day, and 86,440 seconds in one day.

The difference between Pakistan time and Saudia Arbia Time is three hours ( new time)

As far as I studied this our world

360 Degree our world shape if we talk in degree (old time under discuss)
And earth around itself complete one Revolute (chkar) in 24 hours this is we are not discussing earth 365 and ¼ days its sun up and down in 24 hours

360/24 = 15
Means every one hour complete fifteen degree

Now UK is come into 0 Degree

Means when in UK there will be 00.00 or 24.00 this will be time in Pakistan time will be 5 o clock how

Pakistan degree is 75 degree centi grade
75/15 = 5 that we have seen GMT +5 how it comes

And Saudia degree is 45 Degree centi grade (confirm it, it was best out put from my side)
45/15 = 3 GMT +3
It means in Saudia Arbia Sun Rise only two hours earlier as compare to Pakistan

About Moon I can’t tell it will be same as sun because I am not astrologist: D

Now I came to my Question why we have always issue on our Eid Moon we have always been dispute even we have seen three Eids in Pakistan, at least two are confirm always

Can any body explain on it?

While watching National Geographic I have seen they can predict after 240 years sun will hide ( Suraj Garhan) so how can we do not predict on moon give me bizarre feeling

Hopefully some one contribute on this issue
That this is right to celebrate our holy festival in one country three times sounds rubbish

go to the Moon
go to Mercury


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Similar Bodies
The Moon - Earth's only natural satellite
Mercury - Smallest terrestrial planet - closest planet to the Sun
These two bodies are similar in appearance in many respects:
both heavily cratered, ancient surfaces
no air, no water
wild temperature swings, day to night

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Moon - General Properties
Radius = 1738 kilometers (about 1/4 of Earth)
Mass = 7.4 x 1022 kilograms (about 1/80 of Earth)
Average density = 3340 kg/m3
=> fewer heavy metals (like iron) than Earth
Atmosphere (None)
=> very weak gravity
=> low escape speed (2.4 km/s, while earth is 11 km/s)
Temperature
400K (daytime)
100K (nightime)
Earth-moon distance = 384,000 km = 1.28 light-seconds

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Moon's Orbit around the Earth
Orbits Earth in 27.3 days
Rotates synchronously with orbit (same side always faces Earth)
From the Earth, we see the same side of the Moon all the time
From the Moon, the Earth appears to hang fixed in one place in the sky, slowly rotating on its axis
Elongated shape of the Moon results in the synchronous orbit
Presumably, the Moon's elongated shape was created long ago by the Earth's tidal influence when the Moon was young, and the moon is now "tidally locked"

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Moon's Gravity on its Surface
Newton's Law:
F = G (M1)(M2) / R2, where G is a constant


So the force pulling on you (suppose you are M2), on the surface of the Moon, would be proportional to M1 / R2, or the mass of the Moon divided by the distance to the center of the Moon, squared.
Since the Moon has about 1/80 of the mass of the Earth, and it has about 1/4 of the radius of the Earth, gravity on the surface would appear about (1/80)/(1/4)2 = 1/5 as great as on the Earth. (a more accurate estimate comes out to 1/6.)


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Moon's Surface Features
Maria - large flat areas resulting from lava flows
Fourteen (14) named maria, the largest being Mare Imbrium (1100 km diameter)
Highlands - lighter appearing, elevated areas
Craters - very old => mostly from meteoritic impact - very old
Far side surprise
no major maria => due to asymmetric crust
almost entirely highlands
Moon's surface is frozen in time: very little surface erosion
no wind or running water, to cause erosion
no plates on surface to cause volcanism or seismic activity
some erosion from micrometeroids
cumulative effect of micrometeroids => dust

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Character of the Moon's Surface
Highlands
rich in aluminum
somewhat lower density (2900 kg/m3)
material originated in crust
Maria
more iron
greater density (3300 kg/m3)
material originated from mantle
Lunar Dust
about 20 meters deep
pulverized by meteroids
Volcanism
explains some craters
some lava found in maria
but volcanism ended early in the Moon's history
Lunar Ice?
Two lunar missions (Clementine and Prospector) have found evidence for ice at the Moon's south pole

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Moon's Internal Features
Moon's average density (3340 kg/m3) is similar to surface rock
No dense core
No magnetic field => iron deficiency
Cooler (1500K) interior than Earth
Crust is thicker on the lunar far side
resulted from tidal forces
and explains absence of maria on far side

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Origin of the Moon
Impact Theory
Likely origin from collision of large object (Mars-sized) with young Earth
Moon is similar to Earth's mantle

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Evolutionary History of the Moon
Moon formed about 4.6 billion years ago
Oldest rocks discovered on Moon about 4.4 billions years old
During first 0.5 billion years, surface was heated and remelted by frequent meteoritic bombardment
Then, volcanism filled basins with lava, which became the maria
This phase lasted from 3.9 to 3.2 billion years ago
Last 3 billion years has seen heavy erosion of the surface from constant meteoritic bombardment

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Phases of the Moon
The Moon's cycle of phases takes a little over 29 days to complete
although, one sidereal month is 27.3 days

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lunar eclipses
Earth's shadow sweeps across the Moon, temporarily blocking the Sun's light and darkening the Moon in a lunar eclipse

When the Moon passes directly in front of the Sun, daylight is briefly turned into night in a solar eclipse

This is something we can rely on????

http://tycho.usno.navy.mil/vphase.html

On this web site we can see exact information Moon

You can view the phase of the Moon for any date and time [1800-2199 A.D].


Please do visit on this website and comments on it

Give all the accurate detail day, hours, year, and century
You will get the shape on Moon

Mean while when any ordinary person can see in this way
Every year we spent million of Ruppes or Ruwait Hilal Committee???

I hope this year there will be only one Eid insAllah

I am just amazed that when its 21st century and we can find the location of Moon in the upcoming times even when, why couldn't we celebrate an Eid on a common day?

Bhai why don you summarise all this for someone "Jahil" like me

n what about the issue of "Shari Shahadat" for Eid moon? How can we satisfy our Ulmah in this regard?
