The Earth has one natural satellite, the Moon. Occasionally you will hear someone refer to something such as the asteroid Cruithne as "Earth's second moon," but this is stretching the term "moon" to its breaking point. Cruithne does not orbit the Earth; it orbits the Sun, and therefore is not an actual moon.
Yes, you should be preddy dumb if you ask this question, Earth does have a moon, in fact you should be able to see it almost every night. X (
Lol and if you need to know (the person who asked this question) its name is Luna.
This would cause major problems, potentially. The moon helps Earth with gravity, orbit, and tides. It also aids in controlling the seasons and tilt of the Earth. Any drastic changes in this could cause devastating results on terms of ocean tides, seasons, climates, orbit, sun exposure, and tilt.
The Earth has but one moon.
The Earth has but one moon.
The Earth has but one moon.
The Earth has but one moon.
The Earth has but one moon.
The Earth has but one moon.
then we would see 2 moons in the night sky unless they orbit differently
It is unknown if the Earth did have two moons or not however, scientists have studied a lot and have a theory where they concluded that the Earth might of had more than one moon.
The Earth has but one moon.
Is that a question or a statement?
2½ Moon Diameter = Earth's Diameter- 1 Moon Diameter. Earth's Diameter = 7/2 Moon
In rough rounded figures . . . -- The moon's diameter is 27.3% the size of the Earth's diameter. -- That makes the moon's surface area 7.5% the size of Earth's surface area. -- And it makes the moon's volume 2% the size of the Earth's volume. -- The moon's mass is 1.23% the size of the Earth's mass. (When we notice that the moon has 2% of Earth's volume but only 1.23% its mass, we realize immediately that the moon's average density is only 60% of the Earth's average density.)
The moon is to the earth, as the earth is to the sun.
The moon interacts with the earth and the sun by 1.providing light at night, and rotating around the earth. 2. buy the moon getting light reflected by the sun which is why it shines.
Basically the question is wrong or the concept of gravity in your brain is wrong, as gravity exists both at moon and earth, but the value of "g" varies as at earth it is 9.81m/s^2, and at moon it is some what around 1.8m/s^2.
2½ Moon Diameter = Earth's Diameter- 1 Moon Diameter. Earth's Diameter = 7/2 Moon
The moon has easily visible craters, but the ones on earth have mostly weathered away. The Earth has wind and the moon doesn't. Earth has atmosphere but the moon doesn't have one.

Yes. Someday if they made jitney 1 and 2 they will make 3 from earth to the moon I know it. Look on ending on 2
The moon is to the earth, as the earth is to the sun.
From anywhere on 1/2 of the moon's surface, every place on earth can be seen over a period of time.From anywhere on the other 1/2 of the moon's surface, none of the earth can be seen.
The primary source of tidal effects on Earth is the Moon, and the Sun is #2.
The mathematical equation which describes how to measure the distance from Earth to the moon using Earth's diameter as a unit of measure is d = Dcot(p/2)/2 Where d is the distance from Earth to the moon, D is the diameter of the Earth and p is the angle of parallax subtended at moon by the diameter of the Earth.
