how far is it to the moon?
138613
I think its 272,000 miles.

Nothing but empty space in any direction at that distance from London in a straight line.The Moon is at 239 000 miles.
265377
The average distance from the Moon to the Earth is 384,403 kilometres (238,857 miles). The Moon's diameter is 3,476 km (2,160 miles).

sure, you just have to leave earth.  the acceleration on the moon is about 1.6 m/s^2.  so you'd need to go somewhere slightly larger than the moon, but not quite as large as the moon.  perhaps mars?  aha, on mars it is 3.7 m/s^2.  close enough?\n\nhttp://hypertextbook.com/facts/2004/MichaelRobbins.shtml\nhttp://hypertextbook.com/facts/2004/JahshirahRossi.shtml

The moon is 238,857 miles away and would take 5 months  22 hours 38 minutes and 2 seconds to drive non-stop.

On a distant moon of the farthest kuiper belt object in the solar system.

The orbit the moon makes around the earth is not an exact circle, but an ellipse.\n\nThe perigee [or closest approach to earth] = 363,104 km\nThe apogee [or furthest distance to earth] = 405,696 km\n\nThe time it takes for the moon to complete one orbit around the earth is 27 days, 7 hours, and 43.1 minutes.\n\nHope this helps!

milage approx 245,000, far enough so that it takes radio signals (and light) 3 seconds to reach us.  On Apollo 17 they had set a camera to film the lift off from the moon, a tecnician realized that it took three seconds, and generated a "pan" command to the camera so that the camera was able to follow the lift off.

The trick is to remember that we want only the one way time for the radar signal ---\n\nRound trip time is 2.7 seconds. One way trip time is 1.35 seconds.\n\n1.35 seconds times the speed of light (299,792,458 meters per second) = 404,719,818.3 meters to the moon\n\n404,719,818.3 meters = 404719.8183 kilometers to the moon

Yes, the moon is moving away at a rate of 3.8 centimetres per year. This was discovered by lunar laser ranging. Don't worry though, it's practically nothing.

No, it is soooooooo far out of our atmosphere not a chance.  Even with a really big Microscope no.  For real?  By now that thing is gone been like 40 some years since it was put in, no cement on the moon, can't hold up.

Jumbo jets travel at about 900 km/hr, and the moon is 384400 km from earth, so it would take about 18 days to get to the moon going that fast.\n\nHowever, jumbo jets work under the principles of lift propulsion, which requires air.  Since there is no air between the earth and the moon, the jet would be doomed shortly after takeoff.

Of course the Moon is closer than the Sun.\n\nThe average distance from the earth to the sun, the semimajor axis of its orbit, is 149,597,890 km.\n\nMoon's orbit is elliptical: its average orbital radius is 384401 km, apogee (farthest distance from the Earth) is 406700 km, and perigee (distance of closest approach to the Earth) is 356400 km.

THE OTHER SIDE OF THE MOON.

I own a very fine acre of the light side of the moon. It's kinda left a bit from the middle. I could send you a map.
