What is the the earths moons atmosphere?
There is no atmosphere on the moon. There is insufficient gravity to keep an atmosphere there.
Is the moon in the earths atmosphere?
no the moon is orbiting around the earth at a safe distance
Which moon is denser than atmosphere of earth?
All moons are denser that earths atmosphere
Moon gravity vs earths gravity?
Moon gravity is less because the atmosphere and mass and the earths gravity is greater than the moon if you weight yourself in the earth and then you weighted yourself in the moon you would weight less in the moon you could actually float in the moon because of its atmosphere and mass
Why is their no atmosphere in the moon?
because the gravitational attraction of moon is very low(about 1/6th of earths') which is not sufficient to hold the air molecules to form atmosphere.
Would a parachute work on a lander to earths moon?
A parachute requires the drag of the atmosphere to slow the descent. As there is no atmosphere on the Moon, a parachute would be as useful as a chocolate diaper (nappy).
What planet has a relatively large moon with an atmosphere thicker than Earths?
Saturn and the moon is called Titan :) Astronomy HW o.O
Is earths temperature hoter than the moon?
Yes, but only by a small amount (green-house effect of atmosphere). Note that the absence of atmosphere on the moon makes for wild temp swings.
What is the color of the moon when it is lunar eclipse?
The moon will go orange/red during a lunar eclipse, as the earths atmosphere distores the light from the sun.
Why are the temperatures on the moon and the earth so different?
Because of a weaker atmosphere, it cannot trap heat like the earths can.
What is the Moon's lit portion?
The Moons lit portion is always about 50% excluding The light bounced by the Earths atmosphere
If the moon had an atmosphere what would happened to it?
If the moon "had" or had had in the past an atmosphere, its gravitational force (about one sixth that of earths) would not have been strong enough for it to stop the gases dissipating into space.
