Contrary to popular belief, they are not exactly equal because of the angular size of the Sun, atmospheric refraction, and the rapidly changing duration...

object's angular size. The diagram on the right shows an observer's eye looking at a frontal extent (the vertical arrow) that has a linear size S {\displaystyle...

(sometimes called plate scale) is how the angular size of the object being observed is related to the physical size of the projected image in the focal plane...

revealing that there has been no change in the size of the Moon. Across different full moons, the Moon's angular diameter can vary from 29.43 arcminutes at...

whose photosphere's angular size was measured in 1920, and subsequent studies have reported an angular diameter (i.e., apparent size) ranging from 0.042...
