Actually it does attract Mars, but the distances between our Moon and Mars are so great relative to their individual masses that we find it difficult to measure the force of the attraction. Remember that the force of gravity is proportional to the product of the masses of two objects and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. The reason we see a noticeable effect of the attraction of the Sun on the Earth and Mars - despite the great distance between the Sun and those planets is that the mass of the sun is enormous - enough to compensate for the great distances.

What is the hottest planet out of earth moon and mars?
mars and the moon is not a planet
Is the moon between earth and Mars?
No. The moon is closer to Earth than Mars is, but it orbits Earth independent of the motion of Mars. Sometimes the moon may appear right next to Mars in the sky while at other times it may be opposite Mars.
What is bigger earths moon or Mars?
Mars is bigger than Earth's moon. Mars has a diameter of about 4,212 miles, while Earth's moon has a diameter of about 2,159 miles.
Does Mars have a sun?
No, it does not. The earth has a moon, and Mars does not. It is earth's moon, earth and the sun that are involved in eclipses. All of them. Without a moon, Mars cannot experience an eclipse.
Is Mars smaller than your moon?
No, Mars is much larger than Earth's moon.
Is the moon closer to earth or is mars?
The Earth's distance from the moon or Mars is always changing. The closest the moon can get to Earth is 225,622 miles. The farthest it can get is 252,088 miles. The closest possible distance from Earth to Mars is 33.9 million miles. Therefore the Earth is always much closer to the moon than Mars, no matter where they are in orbit.
Does the earth's moon look bigger or smaller from Mars?
Without a telescope you probably couldn't see earth's moon from Mars.
Why does mars appear smaller than the moon when seen from earth?
Mars is tremendously farther away from the Earth than the moon is.
What is Mars biggest moon?
Mars' biggest moon is Phobos. It is irregularly shaped and relatively small compared to Earth's moon, with a diameter of about 22.2 kilometers.
Does the moon or Mars have less gravity?
The moon has less mass than does Mars and therefore has less gravity at its surface.
Does the moon orbit the sun or the planet mars?
The moon orbits the Earth and the Earth orbits the Sun. So. . .the moon kind of orbits the Sun. Hope I helped! (The Moon doesn't obrit Mars!)
What has more gravity moon or mars?
Mars has 38% approximative gravity to that of Earth, meaning Earth has almost three times as much. While the moon has 16.7% that of the Earth. Meaning Mars has a stronger gravitational pull then that of the moon.
