Does the blood moon have any gravity?
Blood Moon either refers to the first full moon after the Harvest Moon, or the moon as it appears during a total lunar eclipse. Either way, it is the same moon; the one currently orbiting planet Earth. As such it has the same gravity (0.1654 g).
How does a moon orbit a planet and what keeps it in orbit?
The gravitational pull of the planet that the moon orbits keeps it from leaving orbit. But the speed of its motion around the planet allows it to avoid being pulled in. Some orbits change over time, as the effects of gravity by other moons or planets can cause them to shift. In some cases, this results in moons being thrown out of their stable orbits. In other cases, a wandering asteroid may be captured by a planet's gravity and assume an orbit with the other moons.
What are the two factors that keep the earth orbiting the sun and the moon orbiting the earth?
Gravity and Inertia. The gravity keeps the planet, moon etc. going in a circle and inertia keeps it going (inertia is the tendency of a moving object to continue in a straight line or a stationary object to remain in place. If there was no gravity the planet, moon etc. would just go in a straight line but with gravity it pulls it in a circle like a string attached to an object at the center.
How can you tell something is a planet and not a moon?
A planet is in direct orbit around a central star, while a moon is in orbit around a large body (a planet) rather than in a direct orbit around a star. The moon orbits the planet, while the planet orbits the sun.

How does man stands on moon without gravity?
There is gravity on the moon but it is a third of planet earth
What is the relationship between the moon and a planet in terms of gravitational influence?
The moon and a planet have a gravitational relationship where the planet's gravity pulls the moon towards it, causing the moon to orbit around the planet. The moon's gravity also affects the planet, causing tides and other gravitational interactions.
What holds a moon in orbit?
The gravity of its planet.
Why can't the atmosphere of gas giant planets escape into space?
Where a planet or moon has an atmosphere, it is the gravity of the moon or planet that holds the atmosphere on the planet or moon.
Which planet has the most greatest gravity?
Jupiter has the strongest gravity. The bigger the planet, the stronger the gravity. The moon is kind of small, so it's gravity is weaker.
Why don't humans feel gravity on the moon?
We do experience the gravity of the moon, as does the entire planet. But since the planet is essentially in freefall with respect to the moon's gravity we feel effectively weightless with respect to the moon. Now, when standing on the moon, humans do feel its gravity, but its strength is only about 1/6 of that of the Earth, due to its smaller mass.
What planet has little gravity?
our moon or mercury or Pluto
What keeps a moon in orbit around a planet?
gravity :)
How do moons orbit the planets?
the planets do not orbit the moon but the moon orbits the planets because of gravity and inertia
Why is the weight of an object on earth different from its weight on the moon?
Because earth is a larger planet than the moon, it has a stronger gravity. Bigger the planet > Stronger the gravity. That is the rule. Since our moon is a much smaller planet, it has weak gravity, and so the object is not being pulled down as hard, so it reduces the overall mass.
Does a planet have more gravitational pull than the moon?
No the planets have more gravity than moon
What is the current theory about how the moon came into existence?
a planet broke apart and the moon was captured by earth's gravity
