Parallax. The separation between our eyes causes a parallax difference when we look at an object; the right eye sees one thing, and the left eye something subtly different. This gives us our stereoscopic "3D" vision and our depth perception.

Look at any animal, and you can see at a glance; is this animal a predator, or a prey? Animals with side-by-side eyes, to give 3-D vision, are predators. Humans, tigers, bears, wolves, eagles. Animals with eyes on opposite sides of their heads like cows, sheep, horses, chickens, pigeons or antelope are "prey" animals; their two eyes are widely separated to allow them to see predators coming at them from all around.

Parallax. When we look at a "nearby" object approximately in the same line of sight as more more distant objects, the "nearby" object appears to move relative to the distant ones in the background.

In astronomy, we take photographs of some of the closer stars six months apart, and we can use the apparent "parallax shift" to calculate the distance.

The celestial bodies attract one another through gravity.

How does accelaration due to gravity effect the time period of a simple pendulum?

Normally the acceleration of gravity is not a factor in the period of a simple pendulum because it does not change on Earth, but if it were to be put on another celestial body the period would change. As gravity increases the period is shorter and as the gravity is less the period is longer.
