- There is a lot of theories about why Earth only has one moon. But most people believe the first theory. The first theory is the Moon was a wandering body (like an asteroid) that formed elsewhere in the solar system and was captured by Earth's gravity as it passed nearby. In contrast, accretion theory suggested that the Moon was created along with Earth at its formation.
- Hello earthling. I am from the planet felex and they have sent me to do research and your planet. On my planet we have 10 moons! Why do you only have 1 moon, and how does it act?
- Themoonlooks different each night because what we see each night is a different part of themoonreflecting rays oflightfrom thesun. This phenomenon is calledPhasesand happens because the moon revolves around the Earth. There are 12 phases of the moon. The moon phases in order arenew moon, waxing crescent, first quarter, waxing gibbous, full moon, waning gibbous, last quarter, and waning crescent.
- I have another question. When I am standing on Earth, why does the moon look different every night?
- Earth, but the Earth is rotating on its axis faster than the Moon is orbiting around the Earth. So the Moon is acting like an anchor and slowing down the Earth's rotation, just as the Moon is consequently increasing its orbital speed around the Earth causes tides here on Earth. The moon's gravity pulls the ocean toward it during high high tides. During low high tides, the Earth itself is pulled slightly toward the moon, creating high tides on the opposite side of the planet due to the moons gravitational pull. Okay bye now!
- Last question. How does the movement of the moon act upon the Earth?
