Ciclo Lunar

The video tutorial explains the lunar cycle, which spans 29.5 days and includes eight phases. It describes how the moon's visibility changes due to its orbit around Earth and its position relative to the sun. The phases include the new moon, waxing crescent, first quarter, waxing gibbous, full moon, waning gibbous, last quarter, and waning crescent. The tutorial also covers the concepts of waxing (increasing visibility) and waning (decreasing visibility) and concludes with a review and reflection on which phases reflect the most and least light.
