They do not actually float. The moon is constantly pulled toward Earth by gravity, but it is moving "sideways" rather quickly relative to Earth so it has quite a bit of momentum. By the time it would have fallen to Earth it has missed. This is how an orbit works. Similarly Earth orbits the sun and the sun orbits the center of the galaxy.
What else can I help you with?
How come a person will float on the moon?
A person will float on the moon because the moon has a weaker gravitational pull compared to Earth. This means that the force pulling the person towards the moon's surface is not as strong, allowing them to float or move more easily.
Does the sun float?
No, the sun does not float. It appears to stay in place due to its immense gravity holding it together in space.
Can the sun float on water?
no
What is a non example of the sun?
A nonexample of a sun would have to be the moon.
What does the moon have that the sun and moon don't have?
The moon has a gravitational effect on Earth that causes tides, which is not caused by the sun. Additionally, the moon has a surface with craters and mountains, while the sun is a ball of hot gases without a solid surface.
Why doesn't the moon float?
I think the moon does float...its just like earth i guess:)
Is it fun floating in the air on the moon?
You don't float in air on the moon because there is no air on the moon, and you don't float anyway. There is gravity on the moon; it is one-sixth the force of Earth's gravity, so you can jump six times higher on the moon, but you don't float weightlessly.

Is it possible to float in air on the moon?
It's possible to temporarily "float" in air for a few seconds on the moon because of the low gravity.
Can the sun float on water?
no
Can the sun float in water?
No
Is the sun and moon rocky?
the moon is but the sun is not
What happens when the moon passess between the sun an earth?
When the moon passes between the Sun and Earth there is a new moon. In a special case where the Sun and Moon are aligned there is an eclipse of the Sun (the moon blocking view of the Sun).
