The average distance from the Earth to the Moon is 384,400 km retroreflectors have been placed on the moon and used to measure the distance by timing a pulse of light. the round trip time is about 2.5 seconds so a one way trip takes light about 1.25 seconds
I think it's 3 times the size of The Earth.
Earth as a Blue Marble relates to a picture taken on December 7, 1972, by the crew of the Apollo 17 spacecraft at a distance of about 45,000 kilometres (28,000 mi). The crew had their back to the sun so the Earth was fully illuminated. Similar pictures have been taken since that time. The phrase is used and popularized in Carl Sagan's documentary/science series "Cosmos" to represent the beauty and smallness of our planet in relation to the Universe.
Images from space of Earth have been taken by NASA. When dark, Earth tends to be lit up. Natural and artificial gasses on Earth make it lit up at night. It can often seem like the stars, which we see in the sky at night are on Earth instead.
Meteorites are rocks from space that have landed on Earth's surface. They come from asteroids or comets and survive the journey through our atmosphere to reach the ground. Scientists study these celestial visitors to learn more about the composition of our solar system.
ozone layer in the Earth's stratosphere. This reduction allows more ultraviolet radiation to reach the Earth's surface, which can lead to an increase in skin cancer rates and harm to marine ecosystems. Efforts to reduce CFC emissions have been successful in slowing down the depletion of the ozone layer.
it has been taken up from an Arabic word which means heaven on earth.. basically wide place having every important thing within reach .
Google Earth is made of pictures taken from satellites. If your house is new or has been renovated, the satellites may not have taken a picture of it yet.
No, its been canceled.
as long as the earth's been round!
Lit by the moon, as having been bathed in moonlight.
the show has been cancelled
The center of the Earth has not been discovered because it lies at a depth of approximately 6,400 kilometers below the Earth's surface, which is beyond our current technological capabilities to reach.
Crimson Moonlight is a Swedish band. Their music is considered to be Christian metal and unblack metal. They have been featured in two metal documentary films.
No, it is and always has been a piano sonata (only).
A lot of oil has been taken since we found out what it can be used for. When we did we started to use it for machinery, motorized vehicles, etc. For all of these components we have used about 662 billion tons of oil that has been taken from the earth.
Well it depends on what you mean. The distance for how long it takes, or the time as in how long since Earth was made. Earth as you know has been here a long long time. Stars light has been shinning towards Earth eversince it was made. To see how long it takes for a stars light to reach Earth depends on how distant and huge the star is.
No. The only astronomical body outside of the earth that humans have landed on has been the moon, and that hasn't happened now for the past 38 years. In order to reach Mars ... when Mars is the nearest to Earth that it can ever be ... astronauts will have to travel almost 200 times as far as they traveled to reach the moon.
