The moon pisses me off.  Whats it ever done for me?  Nothing, thats what.  It just sits there with a smug grin on its face laughing at me, mocking me.  It would solve so many problems too, no more were-wolves attacking people because the moon wouldn't be there to change them, no more annoying tides to worry about, and no worries as to if will ever crash into the Earth or not.

The moon keeps the Earth from rocking rapidly back and forth along it's orbit. Without it, life would be screwed. The seasons would be out of whack which would kill off a lot of the plant and animal life on Earth. To destroy the moon would be to destroy our way of life, and maybe the ability to live on Earth. So no, we should not blow up the moon.

The Earth is a relatively poor planet so we can only AFFORD one moon. Some larger planets with a thriving interstellar economy can afford several large moons and a few spares. There is a planet in the Goografron galaxy that is so rich everyone has their own moon.  The space around the planet became so crowded that it blocked out their two suns, now their economy is collapsing.  Be thankful we just have one.

The moon is a very peaceful world...  Of course, there isn't anything alive on it...  So to me world peace - since most life lives at some level of competition - means the absence of life.  Hence, the dead are expected to rest in peace...

The moon must do because it has an "oo" in the middle.  Anyone that can't see the science behind this might not be prepared to worship you as Pope but there are plenty that will if you say so your eminencey.\n\nOmindumb for Pope!\nOmindumb for Pope!\nOmindumb for Pope!

No tides (not true) \nNo intertidal zone (not true) \nNo eclipses \nDarker skies for astronomy \nSome animals affected (such as salmon and turtles) \nDifferent night creatures \nNo gravity (not true) \nMore impacts on Earth by space debris \nNo lunar calendar \nNo lunar phases \nWorse surfing \nDarker nights \nDifferent name for "lunatics'' \nNo lunar fables (werewolves and so on) \nNo nearby place for astronauts to go \nA lost vehicle for romance \nA lost theme for love songs \nNo Man in the Moon \nThe day would be eight hours long. \nThe winds would be much stronger.\nhttp://www.astrosociety.org/education/publications/tnl/33/33.html\n\nFYI \nThe Moon is moving away from the earth which is why the question is in theory with scientists..The Moon is receding at 2 inches per year\n\nAs for your unintelligent insult on which you are trying to be supreme, you have no CLUE...\n\nIn 1897 George Darwin, son of Charles, suggested that tides are causing the Moon to spiral AWAY FROM US. His hypothesis was CONFIRMED in 1969 after the Apollo 12 astronauts placed corner reflectors (like the red and orange ones on a car) on the Moon. By firing lasers from Earth to the Moon, off the corner reflectors, and back again, astronomers measured the round-trip time and, hence, the distance to the Moon. Repeating the experiment over several years, they confirmed Darwin's prediction. The Moon is receding at 2 inches per year.\n\nSo instead of trying to sound politically correct find facts to the basis of your answer DORK..\nSo here is an explaination of why our days would be 8 hrs long.Earth loses angular momentum because the high tide closest to the Moon is trying to get back directly underneath the Moon, while the high tide farthest from the Moon is trying to get as far away from the Moon as possible. Consequently, the high tides flow westward, and in so doing, they encounter continents and islands. The water pushes against these land masses, which, because of rotation, are moving eastward. The net result is that the eastward rotation is retarded by the westward motion of the tides -- slowing down the rotation. The day is getting longer by about 0.002 seconds per century. It doesn't sound like much, but over billions of years it adds up. Not that you would understand..\n\nNone of your previous questions have been intelligent..

Planets have moons. Damn!

I think most of the others have it right. The key thing is to remember that the half of the Moon that you can't see is NOT in the Earth's shadow, but it is in the Moon's own shadow. Another way of looking at it is that when we see a "half moon", the people on the moon see a "half Earth". Where is the other half of the Earth? It is in darkness(night time) so you can't see it, but it is still there, isn't it? I hope this helps.

I know how it will look.  The same side of the moon always faces us because its rotation rate and revolution rate are both the same - 27 to 28 days depending on whether you are looking at it from sidereal or solar time (that's technical lingo you can skip over).  But those two rates are tidally locked and there's no reason that would change.  We'll never see the other side from earth. One thing that WILL change is that is has been, and will continue to, slowly move farther away from us every year.  In the distant future it will appear smaller in the sky and will take a longer time to go around us, 30+ days in the future.  This is because conservation of energy and conservation of angular momentum must both be conserved.  I can explain that, but trust me, you don't want me to.

a long time ago, when the moon wasnt so big

merry meet!\ni usually dont do my moon rituals outside like the traditions do neither.and they have worked for me.i live in a mobile home and have got the blinds shut,it still works.and i still feel Her presence.and She is still pleased.so it doesnt matter if you are under the moon or inside.as long as you walk outside,which is what i seriously do,and look up at the beautiful moon and get a picture in your mind than while doing the rite you have the moon in your mind while you are doing the left silver candle or the right silver candle.hope this helps.i seriously do go out and look at the moon and get a good picture of the moon.and than walk back in your home and do the ritual.i always have done this before and it usually has always worked for me.and im saying that you may try this skill also.i have always thought that this might worked until the night that i done it.and it does work.so i hope this hellps you.i know how frustrating you must be the fact that you are confused of the moon! \nblessed be,\nOstara Witch )O(

While you could put a big mirror on the Moon to give more sunlight to the Earth, it would not always be there. The Moon is not always in the sky at night. Sometimes you see a full Moon which is up all night and sometimes a crescent Moon that sets a couple hours after the Sun.\nAnyway, why would you want to do that? To increase global warming? To disturb astronomers who need dark skies? To ruin the natural sleeping and waking cycles of animals and people?

Since our moon doesn't cause storms but only the tides, there's no reason to believe that another moon would create havoc. In fact for another moon to exist, I'm sure it would have to me much much smaller than the one we have to remain in a stable orbit.

It is a valid observation.  Ask anybody that works in a hospital or bar.  I used to work in a bar, so I know people are definitely different on a full moon.  The moon affects the water and tides.  Our bodies are made up of 2/3 water.  So we would be affected, too.

Based on the information out there, I now believe that they never went  to the moon. There is no wind on the moon, yet the flag blows in the background. The angles of lighting do not match the way they are supposed to, unless lighting was set up...and an extensive amount. The temperatre that the films would have been subjected to, would have destroyed the pictures. And for the picture of the footprint on the moon, there would have had to have been moisture to create such a mark. If you take completey dry sand and try to make a castle out of it, what happens? It crumbles...any child who has been to the beach knows that you need a little water. so, anyone can believe what they want, but im going on facts :)\n\nps...dont mind my spelling

This is the second dumb question you've asked tonight.  Stop it.  You know exactly who invented the moon walk.  Are you trying to be funny?

Why not a crescent moon? And why don't you read the answers to your other questions instead of spewing out more questions that are thinly disguised rehashes of the same Muslim-bashing rhetoric. Please educate us.....

No.  I saw this video about the moon landing, and how it was done.  The video showed how the lighting was all wrong, and a picture a satellite took of a "part of the moon" here on earth.  I could go on, but I am too tired.
