No. A big asteroid hit the Earth and broke off a chunk of it early in Earth's history. That chunk became the moon. The same collision is responsible for the tilt in Earth's axis that causes the seasons to change.
The moon is held in orbit around Earth by gravity. The gravitational force between the Earth and the moon keeps it from drifting off into space.
The side of the moon facing the sun is always lit up, while the opposite side remains in darkness. This phenomenon is due to the moon's synchronous rotation, which results in one side always facing the sun.
The space shuttle is able to go to the moon by using a special type of fuel and rises up the earth atmosphere until it overcomes the force of gravity.
The orbital path of the moon and gravitational attraction between the moon and the earth keep it up there where it is supposed to be.
Six space shuttles have landed on the moon. The space shuttles, however, were a part of the Space Shuttle program and were not designed to operate on the moon’s surface. They were primarily used for missions in low Earth orbit.
No. Whether the moon looks "full" or not depends on the positions of the sun, the moon, the Earth and you (the observer). So even though you're in space, the moon will still not look full unless all these things were lined up properly. However, it would be possible to always see a full moon if you were in space and kept moving your own position - except for the rare times when the light of the sun is blocked by the Earth from reaching the moon.
Your question does not make any sense. The Earth and the Moon stay the same size and are always in Space.
Uh-for your information genuis, the moon is in outer space and it always will. Even though you may not always see it during the day, it's still there.
A solid always takes up the same amount of space, which is its volume.
The first man in space was cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin, the first man on the moon was Neil Armstrong.
You don't. If you know where to look, you can often see the moon in the daytime, and it's not always up at night either.

the moon is lit up. just like the stars. so that's why!
A lunar eclipse occurs during a full moon phase. Three things needed in space for a lunar eclipse are the Earth, the Moon, and the Sun, with the Earth positioned between the Sun and the Moon so that the Earth's shadow falls on the Moon.
Go to check the moon and to fix things up there
The Soviet Union launched a number of dogs up into space, but no dog has ever landed on the moon.
