The Old English word for moon was "Mona." From this, Modern English derived the words "moon," "Monday" and "month." Monday means "Moon day."
Month & Monday
From anywhere on 1/2 of the moon's surface, every place on earth can be seen over a period of time.From anywhere on the other 1/2 of the moon's surface, none of the earth can be seen.
The primary source of tidal effects on Earth is the Moon, and the Sun is #2.
Earth and moon
It takes the Moon about 27 1/2 days to revolve once around Earth.
it has a one fifth mass of earths moon and one third volume of earths moon
Wax and wane
The Moon spins as it revolves around the Earth. In other words, one revolution (about 27 1/2 days) = one rotation.
2½ Moon Diameter = Earth's Diameter- 1 Moon Diameter. Earth's Diameter = 7/2 Moon
The moon has easily visible craters, but the ones on earth have mostly weathered away. The Earth has wind and the moon doesn't. Earth has atmosphere but the moon doesn't have one.
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.)
Yes. Someday if they made jitney 1 and 2 they will make 3 from earth to the moon I know it. Look on ending on 2

The mathematical equation which describes how to measure the distance from Earth to the moon using Earth's diameter as a unit of measure is d = Dcot(p/2)/2 Where d is the distance from Earth to the moon, D is the diameter of the Earth and p is the angle of parallax subtended at moon by the diameter of the Earth.
