Why does the Moon's surface is visible to an observer on earth?
Its surface is visible because of how AU's (Astronomical Units) it is away from the Earth.
When is the AU found?
The Au if found after you calculate the distance from the earth to the moon. Au stands for: Astronomical units
How many astronomical units is Callisto away from the sun?
Same as Jupiter, since Callisto is a moon of Jupiter.
How many Astronomical Units from the sun to the moon?
If you want a precise measurement at a particular time, it depends. An astronomical unit is defined as the mean distance from sun to Earth. So the Sun-Moon AU measurement would vary depending on where the earth is in it's orbit (i.e. nearer or farther than the average distance) and where the moon is in its rotation around the Earth. But the mean distance over time would still be one AU.
Why can we see craters on the moon so clearly from Earth?
In astronomical terms the moon is very close to Earth, much closer than anything else. Other astronomical bodies have similar cratering but are too far away for us to see them. Second, the moon is geologically dead. There are no processes on the moon's surface to destroy or bury the craters on the moon as has happened to Earth's craters.

What is the distance between Saturn's moon rhea and earth?
The distance from Saturn to Earth is 821,190,000 miles, or 9 AU (Astronomical Units).

Which astronomical body is the closest to earth?
Luna, the Earth's moon.
Why does the moon and earth have the same astronomical units?
If you mean the same distance from the sun, it is because the moon orbits Earth nearly 400 times closer than Earth orbits the sun. This is less than the variation in Earth's distance from the sun due to its orbital eccentricity.
What is he distance from the sun to earths moon in astronomical units?
The distance from the Sun to the Earth is one AU. The Moon orbits the Earth and sometimes is closer and sometimes further away from the Sun, so on average, it is also 1 AU from the Sun.
How the moon like earth at night?
Apart from the moon being an astronomical body it is very unlike the earth.
What is the distance from the sun in astronomical units from earth?
The distance from the Sun to the Earth is one AU. The Moon orbits the Earth and sometimes is closer and sometimes further away from the Sun, so on average, it is also 1 AU from the Sun.
Is it true an astronomical unit is the distance from earth to the moon?
No. The AU is the mean (average) distance from Earth to the Sun.
