The question is somewhat ambiguous. It could be asking either one of two different questions.
Here are the answers to both:
1). The moon does not fall to earth because it has tangential velocity which, when combined with the force of gravity toward the center of the earth, results in a stable Keplerian elliptical orbit.
2). Apples do not fall to the moon because of the following facts:
a). The apple's distance from the moon's center is roughly 60 times the apple's distance from the earth's center.
b). The earth's mass is roughly 82 times the moon's mass.
c). The result is that the gravitational force attracting the apple to the earth is roughly 295,000 times the force attracting it toward the moon.
The same situation holds true for all objects on the earth. A car, attracted to the earth
with a force (weight) of 2000 pounds (1 ton), is also attracted to the moon by a force
of about 1/10th of an ounce. When it falls, it falls in the direction of the greater force.
Acceleration due to gravity is not dependent on mass of the object that is dropped. The air, which the object is falling through, creates a force against the direction of motion. The 'air drag' is dependent on the shape and size of the object. On the surface of the moon, there is no air to provide resistance to motion.
This air resistance effect is used effectively by parachutes (which therefore wouldn't work on the moon).
On Earth, gravity produces an acceleration of about 9.8 meters per second square. On the Moon, the acceleration due to gravity is about 1/6 of this value - about 1.6 meters per second square.

they are both different by their shape what size they have too
No. the gravity on the moon is much less then that of earth so the apple would fall much slower
skydiving on the moon will just keep you into gravity so you will just float but on earth gravity is pushing you downward so you will be falling.
This may surprise you, but as a matter of fact, it doesn't.

That depends on what phase the moon is in. Waxing, it would be the left. Waning, it would be the right. Full would be all of it. New would be none of it. All of this, of course, depends on where you are vs where the sun and moon are. Sometimes, the bottom of the moon may appear to be lit.

Earth vs. moon
If you mean which has the stronger gravitational pull, its the Earth since it's much larger than the moon. The moon has about 1/4 of the gravitational pull that the Earth does. But its enough to affect the water on Earth. Which is how we get our tides in the ocean.
The earth is larger than the moon (about 4 times the size)12,756km vs 3,476 km in diameter . Jupiter is 318 times the mass of earth. The gravitational pull of Jupiter is immense!
The duration of Hercules vs. the Moon Men is 1.5 hours.
Moon gravity is less because the atmosphere and mass and the earths gravity is greater than the moon if you weight yourself in the earth and then you weighted yourself in the moon you would weight less in the moon you could actually float in the moon because of its atmosphere and mass
Hercules vs. the Moon Men was created on 1964-06-27.
Earth vs. the Spider was created in 1958.
It has more craters because the earth has an atmosphere vs the moon which does not the atmosphere creates friction on the asteroid which makes it burn up into smaller rocks that can be seen in a meteor shower these rock burn up before they hit he ground.
The duration of Earth vs. the Spider is 1.22 hours.
Earth vs the Wildhearts was created in 1993-08.
Speed*Time = Distance
Yes. The sun is a giant ball of burning gas, giving off light on its own. However, the moon is a chunk of rock orbiting the Earth. It does not give off light, rather, it is lit up by the light given off by the sun, so that we can see it. The amount of moon we can see is determined by the angles involved with the sun, moon and us.
