... different ways of measuring the Moon. One can measure how wide it is in the sky, what its circumference is, what its mass is, and so forth. Over time we've measured the Moon in all kinds of different ways, even how squishy it is inside (its love number). We know that folks started trying to accurately measure the distance to the Moon about 2,300 ...
On average it is about 238,855 miles away, but its actual distance at any moment in time can vary considerably, between about 221,457 miles and 252,712 miles. This is because its ... /For%20Kids/KidstoSpace.html Click here

... escape the gravitational pull. For the Earth, this speed is approximately 25,000 miles per hour (mph). For the Moon, it is about 5,300 mph. On the asteroid Ceres, the largest known asteroid in the solar system, it is about 1,000 mph, so on all of these celestial bodies it would be impossible ...
... it does not have enough mass to allow it to form a black hole. Only stars with a much greater mass than the Sun—eight to ten times the Sun's mass—have the possibility of collapsing into a black hole. The key is the mass of the core of the star at the end of its lifetime: if the core remaining after a supernova blast is greater than three solar masses, it will continue to ...
When the Sun is shining on it, the far side of the Moon may even be a bit brighter, as it has much less of the dark mare material (the Moscow Sea, Mare Moscoviense, is a notable exception) covering it and much more of the ...
... zero-gravity. The training may take one to two weeks for an average trip to orbit, or probably three to four weeks for trips that go all the way to the Moon. The Moon has one-sixth of Earth gravity, which will be fun and less awkward than zero-gravity in orbit, but it also has a dust problem. Keeping the inside ... provided by David Gump & Gary Hudson
