Ganymede is the largest moon of Jupiter and is located approximately 3.5 astronomical units (AU) from Earth on average.
If you want a precise measurement at a particular time, it depends. An astronomical unit is defined as the mean distance from sun to Earth. So the Sun-Moon AU measurement would vary depending on where the earth is in it's orbit (i.e. nearer or farther than the average distance) and where the moon is in its rotation around the Earth. But the mean distance over time would still be one AU.
Same as Jupiter, since Callisto is a moon of Jupiter.
The Moon's surface is visible to an observer on Earth because sunlight reflects off the Moon's surface towards Earth. The amount of sunlight reflected depends on the Moon's position in its orbit, creating the different phases we see from Earth.
No, the moon is a natural astronomical body that orbits the Earth. It is not manmade.
Ganymede is the largest moon of Jupiter and is located approximately 3.5 astronomical units (AU) from Earth on average.
Its surface is visible because of how AU's (Astronomical Units) it is away from the Earth.
If you want a precise measurement at a particular time, it depends. An astronomical unit is defined as the mean distance from sun to Earth. So the Sun-Moon AU measurement would vary depending on where the earth is in it's orbit (i.e. nearer or farther than the average distance) and where the moon is in its rotation around the Earth. But the mean distance over time would still be one AU.
The distance from Saturn to Earth is 821,190,000 miles, or 9 AU (Astronomical Units).
Same as Jupiter, since Callisto is a moon of Jupiter.
Luna, the Earth's moon.
Our only moon, which is called `The Moon`. Our moons average distance from the Earth is 384,399 km (238,854 miles).
The Moon's surface is visible to an observer on Earth because sunlight reflects off the Moon's surface towards Earth. The amount of sunlight reflected depends on the Moon's position in its orbit, creating the different phases we see from Earth.
If you mean the same distance from the sun, it is because the moon orbits Earth nearly 400 times closer than Earth orbits the sun. This is less than the variation in Earth's distance from the sun due to its orbital eccentricity.
The distance from the Sun to the Earth is one AU. The Moon orbits the Earth and sometimes is closer and sometimes further away from the Sun, so on average, it is also 1 AU from the Sun.
No, the moon is a natural astronomical body that orbits the Earth. It is not manmade.
Apart from the moon being an astronomical body it is very unlike the earth.
