ahhh now.... When a spacecraft leaves earths atmoshere it does not leave earths gravitational pull! the moon itself is in earths gravitational pull. which is what stops the moon from floating away so as far as i can imagine if you put a space craft on the moon you have not left earths gravitational pull or the E.G.P
It is because the moon is much closer to the earth. Gravitational pull decreases in proportion to the square of the distance.
Yes, the gravitational pull between the Earth and the Moon is what keeps the Moon in orbit around the Earth. This gravitational force is what causes the Moon to travel in a curved path around the Earth rather than moving off into space.
The gravitational pull of the moon is the primary factor influencing ocean tides. The gravitational force between the moon and Earth causes water on the side facing the moon to bulge outward, creating a high tide, while the opposite side experiences a low tide. The sun also contributes to tides, but to a lesser extent than the moon.
Less than one tenth (1/10) of the earths gravitational pull.
The Moon's gravitational pull.
the earths gravitational pull keeps the moon in orbit

No. Earths in much more powerful.

The moons gravitational attraction is weaker as the moon is smaller
That's because the Moon is closer. The interesting thing here is that the gravitational pull from the Sun is actually GREATER than that from the Moon.However, the gravitational pull is inversely proportional to the SQUARE of the distance, whereas tidal effects are (approximately) inversely proportional to the CUBE of the distance - thus, the fact that the Moon is closer to us than the Sun is more significant for tidal effects, than for the gravitational pull in absolute terms.
because of the earth and moon's magnetic field and gravitational pull
No the Earth would pull u more than the moon

No, you would not be able to hit it hard enough to escape the Earths gravitational pull.
