Weather By The Moon tio, compared to the planet it orbits. (Pluto’s Moon Charon is a notable exception) For instance, the nearest comparison is that of Neptune’s Moon ‘Triton’, which is only one two hundred and ninetieth of Neptune’s mass. There is, consequently, an unusually large gravitational attraction operating between Moon and Earth. That is why it has such a gravitational effect on everything that moves freely – its pull is about two and a half times that of the COMPARATIVE SIZES OF EARTH AND MOON 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234 Sun. When the Moon is closer or brighter this attraction is increased. The Moon is about 240,000 miles away from our Earth. This is almost ten times the distance around our Earth. If it could traverse space, a train speeding at 65 mph would take about five months to get there. If the Earth was the size of a basketball, the Moon would be the size of a 14 1234567890123 1234567890123 1234567890123 1234567890123 1234567890123 1234567890123 1234567890123 1234567890123 1234567890123 1234567890123 1234567890123 1234567890123 1234567890123
Formation of the Moon tennis ball. Space is called ‘space’ because there’s so much space there. Hold a peppercorn between your index finger and thumb. Imagine it is the Earth. The moon would be a pinhead an inch away. What is the proportional distance to Alpha Centauri, our nearest star neighbour? From New Zealand you would have to catch a plane to Singapore and stand in that city holding another peppercorn.. Astronauts who flew to the Moon were struck by how the Earth and Moon seemed tiny specks in an infinite, empty void. So large are the emptinesses that separate celestial bodies, that most illustrations exaggerate the size of the objects to avoid rendering them as invisible dots. On this scale, all human spaceflight with the exception of the Apollo lunar missions has been confined to a region of two pixels surrounding the Earth. Seeing the Moon’s orbit in its true scale brings home how extraordinary an undertaking the Apollo project was. Of all the human beings who have lived on Earth since the origin of our species, only 24 have ventured outside that thin shell surrounding our Home Planet. Even the orbit which geosynchronous communications satellites occupy is only a little more than a tenth of the way to the Moon. The Earth is a planet, revolving around the Sun once in a year, and the Moon is a satellite, revolving around the Earth at around 2,300 mph in just less than a month. If you were on the Moon you would have days and nights, but each day and each night would be two weeks long. The Moon moves rapidly with respect to the back- 15
