If a small moon were to collide with the Earth, it would have catastrophic consequences and could lead to a massive loss of life. The extent of the damage would depend on several factors, including the size of the moon, its velocity, and the angle of impact. Here's how such an event could potentially cause significant harm:
Impact Blast: The initial impact of the moon with the Earth's surface would release an enormous amount of energy, creating a powerful explosion. The resulting shockwave would cause widespread devastation in the vicinity of the impact zone.
Tsunamis: If the impact occurred in an ocean or a large body of water, it would generate colossal tsunamis. These massive waves could travel across oceans and inundate coastal regions, causing additional destruction and loss of life.
Firestorms: The impact would likely generate intense heat and firestorms in the surrounding areas, leading to further damage and endangering populations near the impact site.
Debris and Dust: The collision would throw a vast amount of debris and dust into the atmosphere. This would obscure sunlight, leading to a "nuclear winter" effect, with decreased temperatures and disrupted weather patterns globally. This could have severe consequences for agriculture and ecosystems, potentially leading to widespread famine.
Climate Change: The dust and gases ejected into the atmosphere would lead to long-term climate changes. This could result in shifts in weather patterns, extreme temperature fluctuations, and further ecological disruptions.
Earthquake and Volcanic Activity: The impact would likely trigger significant seismic activity and volcanic eruptions in the surrounding regions, causing additional destruction and loss of life.
If the moon were to suddenly fall directly on Earth, it would result in catastrophic consequences. The impact would likely cause widespread destruction, massive earthquakes, tsunamis, and potentially wipe out all life forms on Earth. It would be an extinction-level event.
Either full moon, or the moon is on a collision course with Earth and we're all going to die, in which case the name hardly matters.
The worst thing that could happen when landing on the moon is not being able to return to Earth due to technical failure or a critical problem with the spacecraft, leaving the astronauts stranded on the moon.
The moon goes through phases because it orbits Earth about once a month, or about every 28 days. As we look up at the moon, we are watching it slowly move east through the sky. As it gets farther from the sun, it appears to get bigger - what we call "waxes". After the full moon, the moon continues it's journey around Earth and appears to move back toward the sun. As it does, it gets smaller - or "wanes".
Yes Indeed you will die. You will die before you even get close to the sun. It's impossible to even touch the sun or even stay alive in space. If the sun fell out the sky or moved we would die instantly.

The moon will never be planet earth. The moon only has as half of gravity then earth. The moon doesn't even have oxygen. If the moon were to become earth us humans would just die. Plus, the moon doesn't even have water. We humans need water to live. We'd just die.
I think that we would die?? :\
Well, to put it simply, we die. The sun will never be between the Earth and moon. Not ever in our lifetime. Plus the sun would engulf the moon and Earth, destroying it.
If the moon was not present, the earth would throw off the entire planet. Tsunamis would occur because the moon controlled the tides.
No, the moon is not dangerous. We can be born on earth, live out or lives, and die without ever being in danger because of the moon. In some ways the moon affects earth (tides), but not in a way that most people would consider it (the moon) to be dangerous.
If there is no moon orbiting the earth, then there would be no low/high tides and the tip of the earth on it's axis would be "out-of-whack." The earth might spin out of orbit, resulting in a catastrophy. Everything on the earth would die if the orbit of the earth had something wrong with it.

Nobody has ever died on the moon, or even in Earth orbit (although some have died while attempting to enter or exit Earth's atmosphere)
we would die
