OK I've probably seen too many pictures of orreries and drawings of the Solar System which show the moon orbiting at the Earth's equator.I do realise that the Earth tilts towards/away from the Sun hence the different seasons in the northern and southern hemisphere.But here (England) the Moon can be almost tracking the horizon and at other times have a high elevation (estimate 70-80 degrees) above the horizon why is there such a variation?Could someone please explain or point me to a relevant website?Thank you.
