well some calenders are kind of programed on the moon so new moon means new month
The moon is very important for the earth. It keeps the earth's tilt (angle towards the sun) steady. Without the moon, the earth would change it tilt significantly over time which would make life on earth impossible. The moon also affect ocean tides on earth. Tides allow several species of animals to survive.
The moon is a celestial body called a satellite and in order to be classified as a moon it must be a body which is gravitationally bound to its host planet and follows a specific constant orbit around its planet.
Virtually every detail of the moon's internal tectonic or lunalogical activity, as well as
any long-term evolution of its surface features, no matter how small, is identical to
the corresponding detail of the moon.
# The natural satellite of Earth, visible by reflection of sunlight and having a slightly elliptical orbit, approximately 356,000 kilometers (221,600 miles) distant at perigee and 406,997 kilometers (252,950 miles) at apogee. Its mean diameter is 3,475 kilometers (2,160 miles), its mass approximately one eightieth that of Earth, and its average period of revolution around Earth 29 days 12 hours 44 minutes calculated with respect to the sun. # A natural satellite revolving around a planet.
The moon does not have a definite and given role, it is an inanimate natural satellite. Through the ages mankind has utilized its presence to help with counting and measuring time, navigation to a certain extent and also noted its effects on the tides.
Typically the word "lunar" is used to refer to the Moon, from the Latin "Luna" for Moon.
(Also the source for "lunatic", someone who has been driven crazy from staring at the Moon.)
