how distince betwen earth and moon?
918350
On average, the distance is 384401 kilometres (238857 mi). There are of course variations in this distance due to the imperfect nature of the moon's orbit.

the moon doesnt circle the sun the moon circles the earth the earth circles the sun

The Moon does not play a key role in the universe.  In terms of the universe, the moon is not even noticeable.  It does not play a key role in our galaxy.  It does not play a key role in our solar system.  However, the Moon does have some profound effects upon Earth.\n\n1) Earth's oceans would have tides even if we did not have a moon.  The Sun is large enough that its gravity would create tides.  Oddly enough, the moon tides and sun tides are of almost equal size.  The Sun's gravity is more powerful than the Moon's gravity.  But the Sun is much farther so it balances out.  When the Moon and Sun are on the same side of Earth, the tides are much stronger.\n\n2) Most of the time, the Moon lights the night sky.  Without this light, it is doubtful that any of the nocturnal species would be nocturnal.  It is certain that the moonlight affected the course of evolution on Earth.

The distance that the moon is from the earth depends on the location of the moon during the lunar calendar.\n\nWhen it is closest to the earth, the moon is 363,300 km from the earth (roughly 225,744.154 miles, 1.19192913 × 109 feet)\nWhen the moon is the farthest away, it is 405,500 km from the earth (roughly 251,966.018 miles, 1.33038058 × 10^9 feet)\nOn average, the distance from the earth to the moon is 384,400 km (roughly 238,855.086 miles, 1.26115486 × 10^9 feet)\n\nMeasurements reveal that the Moon's distance to the Earth increases by 38 mm per year!

Think rally hard. The moon has gravity just like the earth. Have you ever seen a flag on earth stand that straight? They had a metal pole across the top and the grainy video make it look as if it is fluttering.

full moon.  a lunar eclipse occurs when the earth blocks the light from the sun, so the earth is positioned between the sun and moon - the full moon phase.

The average distance between Earth and Moon is approximately 30 times Earth's diameter.

No. The Earth's moon is terrestrial, meaning it has a rocky surface.

The Earth's circumference is 23,627 miles or about 24,000 miles and the average distance between the Earth and the Moon is 238,900 or about 240,000 miles.  If the students are learning the metric system, the figures are 38,025 km or about 38,000 km for the Earth's circumference and 384,400 km for the average Earth-Luna distance.

Earth shine is the correct answer. When the Moon is crescent as seen from Earth, the Earth is nearly full as seen from the Moon. And Earth is bigger and has much higher reflectivity than the Moon, so a nearly full Earth gives much more light than a nearly full Moon does.

The Moon's orbit around the Earth is elliptical, with a substantial eccentricity (as major Solar System bodies go) of 5.49%. In addition, the tidal effect of the Sun's gravitational field increases the eccentricity when the orbit's major axis is aligned with the Sun-Earth vector or, in other words, the Moon is full or new.\n\nAt Perigee (its closest Point to earth the Distance is  359861 km from earth measured from equator to equator.\n\nAt Apogee (its farthest point from eath the Distance is 405948 km from eath measured from equator to equator.\n\nAs it revolves around the earth in this EGG shaped orbit it cycles between getting further and closer from earth.\n\nTake a Boiled egg and cut it in half. Measure how THICK the white is from the yoke at any point on the FLAT cut surface of the egg. The moon would travel around the outside of the yoke. (the yoke is the earth.\n\nSee the below link for a great explanation and good photos and graphics.

both are always in the sky. sun goes round the earth and the earth goes round the moon. depends on the time of year moon cycles etc etc

Beacause asit goes around the Earth it becomes closer and further away during its cycle.  The moon is in an oval orbit.\nhttp://stardate.org/nightsky/moon/

Lunar eclipse happen more frequently than solar.(earth has a larger shadow then the moon.)

Just look at the moon.  The moon has is made up of mantle rocks, just like the Earth's crust.  But there's no water, nor is there an atmosphere.  \n\nIt's actually not a fair question.  The Earth is in a wonderful position in that water is a liquid (too close it's a gas, too far it's ice).  Water is a very abundant substance - if a planet has an atmosphere, it has water.  The moon is too small and cannot hold an atmosphere, but there's no way the Earth would lose its atmosphere due to its size.  Therefore, there's really no way for the Earth to lose water.\n\nSo assuming the Earth COULD lose its atmosphere, you'd have a surface like the moon.

This is when the moon is in front of the sun in respect to the earth. It is also called conjunction.

Very cool question.\n\nThe moon circles the earth about once a month.\n\nSo roughly every two weeks the moon is somewhere in the sky on the lighted side of the earth -- the side facing the sun.\n\nNow depending where you are standing on the earth, when the moon is in the daylight sky, you may be able to see it. \n\nIt depends on your local geography, for instance if you live in a deep valley, your view of the sky is smaller and you are less likely to see the moon and the sun at the same time.\n\nIt also depends on how close to the sun the moon appears in the sky and on the time of day.\n\nYou can use the automatic sky chart in the links below and see when the moon and sun are in the sky together.\n\nIn some cases even if the sky is too bright to see the moon, you can use a telescope or binoculars to see it. Be VERY careful not to aim at the sun, or you could seriously damage your vision.\n\nHappy moon watching!
