No, not from the earth. The pointers are not precise enough to keep the peam at that distance. In addition, the dust particles in the atmosphere would scatter the beam before it got there.

Why is the earth's surface not riddled with craters as is the moon?

The Earth has some craters, they are just rarer. The majority of meteors coming towards us disintegrate in the Earth's atmosphere (something the moon doesn't have), and the craters that are created by ones that get through are then subjected to winds, oceans, animals, foliage, all sorts of things that will make them less cratery. The moon doesn't have any of that, so any small meteoroid will hit it, and the crater stay there for a long, long time.


Is the meteor going to fall in the Earth on nov 9?

A meteor hitting the moon would affect life on Earth in a good way. By omission, the collision with the moon means the meteor doesn't get to strike the Earth --- and that is a very good thing.


Why does the moon have more surface craters than the Earth does?

I'm no expert but id guess that earth (being a larger target) has been hit more then mercury. (here is where the guessing ends) but mercury is devoid of water Ware as earth has lots. their was once a time where earth was covered with impact craters. but over rain eroded them away. mercury has no rain so the craters will stay their for millions of years


Does the moon and the earth both have craters?

Yes both bodies have craters but the Moon has many many more. That is because it has no protective atmosphere so that any old piece of rock of any size that hits the Moon will produce a crater (sometimes only a small one, other times a big one). The Earth's atmosphere causes all but the biggest meteors to burn up before they hit the ground, which means they have to be really large to cause any kind of crater. But the Earth has a few big craters.

How do you hit a target with a laser using a mirror?

To hit a target with a laser using a mirror, you need to position the mirror at an angle that reflects the laser beam towards the target. Ensure the mirror is aligned properly so the reflected beam remains on target. Adjust the mirror as needed to accurately direct the laser beam towards the target.


Can a laser beam from earth hit the sun?

I am pretty sure that's possible, but that won't achieve anything useful. It will just heat up the Sun's plasma a bit. It won't make any difference to the Sun.

Earth's moon hypothetically was a portion of earth when it was hit by an asteroid how was this possible?

if a meteor hit earth and a piece of earth (the moon) chipped off. earths gravitational pull could be sufficient to make the moon orbit around the earth.


How long would it take a laser beam to hit mars from earth orbit?

It depends on where Earth and Mars are in their orbits. Since Mars takes longer to orbit the sun than Earth does the distance between the two planets varies considerably. When Earth and Mars are closest a beam of light will take about 4 minutes to reach Mars from Earth. When they are farthest (on opposite sides of the sun) a bean of light would take about 12 minutes.
