Question 1368Navigation General
70% to passIn low latitudes, the full Moon will always rise at about _______________.
A
2400 LMT
B
sunset
C
1200 LMT
D
sunrise
AI Explanation
The correct answer is B) sunset. In low latitudes, the full Moon will always rise at about sunset. This is because the Moon's orbit is closely aligned with the ecliptic, the apparent path of the Sun across the sky. When the Sun sets, the Moon, being on the opposite side of the Earth, will rise shortly after. The other options are incorrect because 2400 LMT (A) is midnight, 1200 LMT (C) is noon, and sunrise (D) is when the Sun, not the Moon, rises.
