What would happen if the moon slowly moved away from earth?
The moon does slowly move away from earth at an estimated two inches every year, it is a possibility that (if you believe in the apocalypse) the cause for the fall of Earth is the moon losing its orbit with earth and drifting away.
How much does the moon move away from earth each year?
The moon moves about 4cm away from the earth each year. This is because the moons orbit around the earth is tilted about 5 degrees. The moon is spiraling away from the earth and one day we might not have a moon.
How far does the moon move away from the Earth in on year?
About 1 second away every 50,000 years
What would happen if the force of earth's gravity suddenly stop pulling in the moon?
In that case, the Moon would move in a straight line instead of moving around the Earth; it would quickly get away.
If a spaceship went into space from the earth did the spaceship move away from the earth or did the earth move away from the spaceship?
Both would probably move away from each other, because the earth moves too.

the moon flys away from the earth
Why doesn't the moon move away from the earth?
because of the earth gravitational and magnetic pull

How far does the moon have to be or has to move away from Earth for the moon to be released from Earth's gravitational pull?
There's no limit to the distance at which Earth's gravity is effective, and no limit to the distance that two bodies can separate and still move in mutual gravitational orbits.
How far will the moon move away from the earth in 1000000 years?
The moon is drifting away from earth at a rate of about 38 millimeters per year. So in 1 million years, the moon will have drifted another 38 kilometers or abour 24 miles further from Earth.
