Why is the moon in the sky in the United States more round than that in China? And bigger.
That's a good question The reason for this phenomenon is different perspectives.

Because of the rotation of the earth, people on the earth look at the moon from different angles. In China, people look at the moon at a smaller angle than in new york. So the moon seen in China is smaller than that seen in new york.

In addition, due to the rotation of the earth, the moon looks different in size at different positions on the earth. On the earth, the moon looks bigger than above the earth. So the angle of view of the moon seen in China is smaller than that seen in new york.
