No. In fact, bouncing lasers off the laser reflectors left by the Apollo astronauts has proven that the Moon is actually moving away from the Earth, around 2 inches a year or so. So if Neil Armstrong went back after these 40+ years, he'd have perhaps 7 feet more to travel than he did in 1969!

No. that 's because gravity on the Earth the gravational pull cant let the moon fall down to Earth if the moon has an orbit not too slow and not too fast if it were moving too fast the moon would fly out of its orbit If it were moving too slow then the moon would hit the earth

How objects fall on Earth and on the moon?

Objects fall towards the ground due to gravity on both Earth and the moon. However, the acceleration due to gravity is higher on Earth than on the moon, so objects fall faster on Earth compared to the moon. Additionally, the lack of atmosphere on the moon affects the way objects fall by reducing air resistance.


Would a feather fall faster or slower on earth than the moon?

A feather would fall faster on Earth than on the Moon due to Earth's stronger gravitational pull. The Moon has less gravity than Earth, so objects fall more slowly on the Moon.


Does an apple fall faster on the moon or earth?

On the earth because the earth has stronger gravity than the moon


Why does the Moon's shadow fall on part of the earth?

Because the moon comes between the sun and Earth, casting the moon's shadow on Earth.


Why does the moon not fall to earth because of what force or phenomenon?

The moon does not fall to Earth because of its orbit and the force of gravity. The moon's speed and distance from Earth create a balance between the gravitational pull of the Earth and the moon's inertia, keeping it in a stable orbit.


Why does the moon not fall to Earth?

The moon does not fall to Earth because of its orbit and the balance between its gravitational pull and its forward motion. The moon's speed and distance from Earth keep it in a stable orbit around our planet.


Why doesn't the moon fall to the earth?

The moon doesn't fall to the earth because of its orbit and the balance between its gravitational pull and its forward motion. The moon's speed and distance from the earth keep it in a stable orbit.


If you parachuted on the moon and earth which one will you fall faster on?

you will fall faster on the earth because earth has a higher gravity


Will you fall of the moon?

Yes, but not as hard as on Earth.


Why does a paper fall differently on the moon than on earth?

because of gravity. the paper will not actually fall onto the moon but rise up. earth has 10.0n of gravity and the moon has much less, so it wont fall but rise.


When does the eclipse of the moon takes place?

An Eclipse of the moon occurs when the shadow of the earth's shadow fall on the moon


Will the moon fall on us?

No, the moon is actually slowly moving away from the Earth.
