Is the moon a third of earth?
No. The moon is the same size as the earth. We just see it the way we so because of the distance between them.
How does buggy stay on moon?
Gravity - same as Earth. The Moon's gravity is only about 1/6th of earth but it is enough for things on its surface to remain there.
What is the proximity from the moon to the sun?
The distance between the Moon and the Sun is, on average, the same as the distance between the Earth and the Sun: about 150,000,000 km.
Why does it take the same time as the light from the sun to reach earth as it does for the moon?
It doesn't always do that. At some points in the Moon's orbit around the Earth, the distance from the Sun to the Moon and Earth is the same. At other points, the Moon is either closer or farther away from the Sun. But either way the distance between the Moon and Earth is so much smaller than the distance between the Sun and the Moon, that the difference in time becomes really, really tiny in comparison.
What planet has 8 rings that reach into space about the same distance as it is between the Earth and the Moon?
Saturn
What is the distance between earth and heaven?
The same as between the Moon and the Earth. The distance from the clouds to the surface of the Earth is insignificant, compared to the Moon-Earth distance.The same as between the Moon and the Earth.

Why do you not see the far side of the moon?
cuz +he moon spin and orbi+ happen at +he same speed. Tidal forces between earth and the moon have slowed the moon's rotation in a manner that causes the same side of the moon to always be facing earth.
What is the proximity from the moon to the sun?
The distance between the Moon and the Sun is, on average, the same as the distance between the Earth and the Sun: about 150,000,000 km.
What is the gravitational weight difference between the moon and earth?
The weight of an object on the moon's surface is 16.3% of the same object's weight on the earth's surface.
Can there be a lunar ecplicse and solar at the same time?
No. A solar eclipse happens when the moon passes between Earth and the sun. A lunar eclipse happens when Earth passes between the sun and the moon.
What moon phase is when the moon it between the earth and sun?
That's Full Moon. If the arrangement is in exactly the same line, then there's a lunar eclipse.
What is the map of the stars as seen from the moon?
There's only one difference between the sky seen from the Earth and the sky seen from the moon. The sky seen from the Earth has a moon in it, and the sky seen from the moon has an Earth in it. Other than that, exactly the same objects in the same patterns are seen from both places.
Why does it take the same time as the light from the sun to reach earth as it does for the moon?
It doesn't always do that. At some points in the Moon's orbit around the Earth, the distance from the Sun to the Moon and Earth is the same.

But either way the distance between the Moon and Earth is so much smaller than the distance between the Sun and the Moon, that the difference in time becomes really, really tiny in comparison.
The gravitation force between the moon and earth?
Well if the moon moves a bit the earth and tide pulls with it and if the sun moon and earth are all in the same position as in a spring tide it causes the tides to go really big.
