Allthough moon is pulled by earths gravitational field but due to another forces like centrifugal force of moon which is developed by moon while revolving around earth keep it away form collpsing with earth.

Also there are many other bodies in space which neutralize the gravitational pull of earth to moon.

Why does the moon orbit us?

because the earth's gravity is pulling the moon towards itself just like earth gets pulled by the sun with the help of its gravity


The moon has no gravity but the rocket lands on it How?

The moon does have gravity, just less than Earth's. When a rocket lands on the moon, it is pulled towards the moon's surface by its gravity, similar to how objects are pulled towards Earth. The rocket's engines are used to slow down its descent and land safely on the moon's surface.


Why does the moon orbit the Earth instead of the Sun?

The moon orbits the Earth instead of the Sun because of the gravitational pull between the Earth and the moon. This gravitational force keeps the moon in orbit around the Earth, rather than being pulled towards the Sun.


What are objects on earth pulled to?

Towards the Earth.


The earth's water is pulled by the?

moon


Why doesn't the earth's gravaty pull the moon into the earth?

Earth gravity is pulling the moon, that is why it orbits. The only reason the moon doesn't get pulled closer is because it is orbiting to fast to be pulled.


What causes the moon to be pulled towards the earth and the earth be pulled towards the moon?

That would be universal gravitation, a property of space which . . . within the range of temporal andspatial dimensions that lie between the realms of general relativity and quantum mechanics . . .causes a mutual force of attraction between every two mass objects.But you can just call it "gravity".


Why does the moon float and not get pulled to earth?

Because of the gravitational force difference on earth and moon.


How you are staying on earth as earth is round?

Gravity.The gravity of the earth is always pulling everything towards it. Nothing can fall off the earth because everything wants to fall towards the center of the planet.Even the moon is being pulled towards the earth. That's the only thing that keeps it from drifting off into space.


How does the moon float in space?

The moon orbits around the Earth due to gravitational force. Its motion is a balance between the pull of Earth's gravity and the moon's own inertia. This allows the moon to "float" in space without falling towards Earth.


What is the acceleration of the moon towards the earth?

The acceleration of the moon towards the earth is approximately 0.0027 m/s2.


What satellite that revolves around the earth?

The satellite is pulled towards the Earth by the force of gravity, but it also has it own high velocity in its orbit. As it accelerates downwards towards the centre of the Earth, its velocity keeps track of the Earth's curvature, so it actually stays at the same height constantly.
