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.


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.


Why does the moon not crash on earth but stay in space and not float away or into earth?

The moon and other planets and their satellites are held in space by the force of gravity from other planets and satellites. If the moon tried to drift off into space, gravitational forces from the Earth will keep it from floating away. It doesn't crash into the Earth because planets and moons pull AGAINST each other and keep each other from drifting away.* * * * *Only partly true.The moon does not float away because of the action of earth's gravity - whether you view this as a force or a distirtion of space-time in the moon's path.The moon does not crash into the earth, not because of other planets or satellites, but because of the momentum of its orbit around the earth.


Has the moon gone closer to the earth?

YES!!!! All astronimic objects move closer to and away from each other. Its explained by Newton;s three Laws of Universal Dynamics. (Gravity). Masses , Acceleration , Gravity all play against each other . So everything moves closer to and away from each other.


Does gravity pull the sun towards earth?

Yes. The Earth and then Sun pull each other towards each other.

No. This is an old theory that has been mostly discredited. You can still find videos on in on ytube however - some of them very well done.
