The size of the Earth is significantly larger than the size of the Moon. Earth has a diameter of about 12,742 kilometers, while the Moon's diameter is about 3,474 kilometers, making Earth roughly 3.7 times larger than the Moon.
No. The moon is the same size as the earth. We just see it the way we so because of the distance between them.
The Earth and Moon appear the same size in the sky when viewed from Earth because the Moon is about 1/4 the size of Earth and is about 1/4 as far away from Earth as the Earth is from the Moon. This alignment creates the illusion that they have the same apparent size.
In rough rounded figures . . . -- The moon's diameter is 27.3% the size of the Earth's diameter. -- That makes the moon's surface area 7.5% the size of Earth's surface area. -- And it makes the moon's volume 2% the size of the Earth's volume. -- The moon's mass is 1.23% the size of the Earth's mass. (When we notice that the moon has 2% of Earth's volume but only 1.23% its mass, we realize immediately that the moon's average density is only 60% of the Earth's average density.)
moon's gravity is (1/6)th of the earth's gravity
1/6th the size.
The size of the Earth is significantly larger than the size of the Moon. Earth has a diameter of about 12,742 kilometers, while the Moon's diameter is about 3,474 kilometers, making Earth roughly 3.7 times larger than the Moon.
The Sun is much larger than both the Earth and the Moon. The Earth is smaller than the Sun but larger than the Moon. The Moon is the smallest of the three.
The moon's gravity is about 1/6th of Earth's gravity.
Mercury is larger than the moon and so is closer in size to Earth than the moon is. It should be noted that Mercury is closer in size to the moon than it is to Earth.
Size: The Moon has about 1/4 of the diameter of Earth. Mass: The Moon has about 1/81 of the mass of Earth.
