This is an approximate answer. The Earth is 93 million miles from the sun. The circumference or orbit is 2 * pi * r , so 2 x 3.14 x 93 million = 584 million miles. Note this is approximate since the suns radius needs to be taken into consideration

every side of the moon eventually gets sunlight, because the moon revolves around Earth and Earth revolves around the sun. but only half of the moon if ever lit at a time, and the light goes around the moon


How far is the United States from the Moon?

The exact distance changes, as the moon revolves around the earth in its orbit and as the earth rotates. A reasonable figure for the average distance between the United States and the moon is 238,000 miles.


Does Pluto revolve and orbit around the sun?

Pluto revolves round the sun all the time.


Why do people on earth never see the far side of the moon?

The moon always revolves around the earth with the same side facing the Earth. The reason is because the moon's period of rotation is the same as its orbital period around the earth. The moon rotates once on its axis every month. As an orbiting body, if the moon did not rotate on its axis, its orbiting motion would expose all of its surface toward the earth at some point during the month.

Eventually, yes. As far as I know, very few educated people today believe our Sun revolves around our Earth.


Does the earths moon come after Pluto?

No, our Moon revolves around the EARTH, and is very close, relative to Pluto, which revolves around the Sun, and is very very very very very very far away. So if you go there, take a change of clothes. Your underwear will be pretty stinky by the time you get there.


Why do you never see the far side of the moon?

You never see the far side of the moon because the moon rotates around Earth much, much faster than it revolves on it's axis. Hope this helped!


What is the farthest you have traveled into space?

I personally have never been farther than about 7.5 miles from earth's surface. Apollo astronauts have traveled as far as lunar orbit, around the far side of the moon, roughly 238,000 miles from earth. That's about 1/2% of the distance to Mars when Mars and earth are as close together as they can ever be, and about 1/4% of the distance to the sun.
