The Sun is a star made of hot plasma that glows and erupts solar flares, with a dense core generating energy through particle reactions. The Moon has no light or atmosphere of its own, rotating as it revolves around Earth in 28 days, always showing the same face. The changing phases of the Moon are caused by the varying illumination of its surface from Earth's perspective over the lunar cycle. In 1959, the Soviet Luna 2 was the first spacecraft to reach the Moon, followed by the 1969 Apollo 11 mission where Neil Armstrong became the first person to walk on the lunar surface.
The Moon, earth's natural satellite and its nearest companion brings much fascination and adoration to the humankind. This article provides some interesting facts and figures associated with the Moon.
The moon is Earth's natural satellite that orbits our planet. It formed approximately 4.5 billion years ago from debris after a giant impact with Earth. While only one-fourth the size of Earth, the moon is the fifth largest moon in the solar system and has significant effects on our planet through its gravitational pull and influence on ocean tides. Some of the most notable events in our exploration of the moon include the first unmanned and manned landings by the Soviet and American space programs in the 1950s and 1960s.
The document discusses several key facts about the moon:
- The moon's gravity causes tides on Earth by pulling on the oceans. High tides occur when the moon is closest to that area of Earth.
- The moon orbits Earth about every 27 days while also spinning on its axis. It is approximately 384,000 km from Earth.
- In 1969, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin were the first astronauts to land on the moon as part of the Apollo 11 mission. They wore spacesuits due to the moon's lack of atmosphere and temperature changes.
- The moon has less gravity than Earth, so people and objects would weigh less if on the moon. It has various types of rocks and craters that may
The document summarizes information about objects in our solar system including the sun, moon, planets, asteroids, comets, and meteors. It provides details on the composition and characteristics of these objects, such as the sun being a hot ball of gases that is the source of energy for life on Earth. It also describes the phases of the moon and eclipses that occur when the moon or Earth block sunlight from each other. The planets are classified as either terrestrial planets like Earth that are rocky, or Jovian planets like Jupiter that are large and gaseous. Comets originate from the Kuiper belt or distant Oort cloud and have icy compositions. Meteors are small pieces of rock that burn up as shooting
Neil Armstrong was the first person to walk on the moon on July 20, 1969 as part of the Apollo 11 mission. The Apollo 11 crew included Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collins. Armstrong uttered the famous words "one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind" when he first stepped onto the lunar surface. President John F. Kennedy had set the goal for the United States to land a man on the moon before the end of the 1960s.
The document provides an overview of the solar system, including information about the sun, planets, and other celestial bodies. It discusses the inner and outer planets, as well as characteristics of specific planets like Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. It also covers moons, asteroids, comets, dwarf planets, and phases of the moon. The summary focuses on key details about the structure of the solar system and different types of objects within it.
The document discusses various celestial objects in our solar system, including the moon, planets, stars, and other astronomical bodies. It provides details about the moon's surface and phases, describes the eight planets and some of their features, and mentions asteroids, comets, meteors, and both natural and artificial satellites. The moon's surface is dusty and barren with many craters, and it orbits around Earth every 9.5 days. The solar system contains the sun and eight planets, along with asteroids, comets, and other small bodies.
The document discusses various terms related to the moon including its phases, features, effect on tides, and history of exploration. It defines waxing as when the moon appears to grow in size, waning as when it decreases in size, and gibbous as between a half circle and full circle of illumination. It notes the moon's seas are dark patches formed by ancient lava flows and that phases refer to how much is illuminated each day. A harvest moon is a full moon near the autumn equinox that rises earlier each night. The first men on the moon were Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin in 1969.
The document discusses the moon and its formation. The most accepted theory is that a large asteroid collided with Earth, sending debris into space that coalesced to form the moon. The moon has different terrain features like maria (smooth lowlands formed by lava) and craters created by meteoroid impacts. It rotates synchronously so the same side always faces Earth. The moon's phases are caused by our changing view of the illuminated half as it orbits, not Earth's shadow. Eclipses occur when the moon passes through Earth's shadow (lunar eclipse) or blocks the sun's light (solar eclipse).
The document discusses key facts about the Moon, including that it has orbited Earth for over 4 billion years, appears bright but has no light of its own, and its phases are caused by the changing shape of the illuminated portion we see from Earth. It also notes that the Moon's gravitational pull causes ocean tides on Earth and that the first men to walk on the Moon were Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin in 1969.
The solar system consists of the Sun and eight planets that orbit it in the same direction and plane. The planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. The solar system also contains moons, asteroids, comets and other small bodies. Earth stands out as the only planet known to support life, due to the presence of liquid water on its surface and an atmosphere that enables a stable temperature through the greenhouse effect. The Moon is Earth's only natural satellite and influences tides on Earth through their gravitational interaction.
The document discusses the sun and solar system. It states that the sun is a huge ball of fire that gives heat and light. It also notes that the solar system contains 8 planets including Earth that orbit the sun, and satellites such as Earth's moon orbit around planets. Mercury is the smallest planet, Earth is third from the sun and the only known to have life, and Jupiter is the largest planet in the solar system.
The document provides information about astronomy and the solar system. It discusses the definition of astronomy and describes the solar system including the eight planets, their satellites, asteroids, comets, and other objects within the sun's gravitational influence. It then focuses on specific planets like Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Venus, and Mercury. Details are given about their composition, orbits, moons, and other characteristics.
A solar system refers to a star and all the objects that travel in orbit around it. Our solar system consists of the sun - our star - eight planets and their natural satellites (such as our moon); dwarf planets; asteroids and comets. Our solar system is located in an outward spiral of the Milky Way galaxy.
Earth is the third planet from the Sun and has one moon. It takes Earth 24 hours to rotate and 365 days to orbit the Sun. The atmosphere is made up of nitrogen, oxygen, and other gases. Humans have explored the Moon through numerous spacecraft, with the first spacecraft landing in 1959 and the first human moonwalk occurring in 1969.

2. MOON
A natural satellite of Earth.
Nearest neighbour of Earth in
space.
Fifth largest satellite in the
solar system.
3. Moon revolves around the Earth in
a fixed orbit.
Do you know?
The Moon completes one revolution around Earth in
about 27 days.
4. Moon has no water and atmosphere.
Moon has no light of its own.It
appears bright because of the sunlight
reflected from its surface.
5. Craters on moon
Large holes are present
on moons surface which
are called craters.
These craters are much
bigger in size as
compared to the holes on
our roads.
6. Our weight on moon
We weigh less
on moon
because it has
less gravity
than earth.
We weight
almost
one-sixth of
our weight on
the moon.
7. Phases of the Moon
Moon is round in shape, but it appears
to change its shape every day.
These different shapes are known as the
phases of the Moon.
9. Man on the Moon
The first man who stepped on the
moon was Neil Armstrong in 1969.
The other two astronauts who stepped
few minutes later were Edwin Aldrin
and Michael Collins.
They travelled in a spacecraft named
Apollo 11.
10. Some interesting facts
Only 12 astronauts till now have walked
on the moon.
Even though the moon always looks
perfectly round in the night sky, but it's
actually more of an oval shape.
