What Would Happen If The Moon Were Destroyed
1,095 wordsWhat would happen if the moon was destroyed? I have often wondered what would happen if the moon were destroyed and how it would be destroyed. Would a crazy scientist nuke it? Maybe an asteroid would hit it. Astronomers have catalogued all large objects in space that are larger than 500 kilometers in diameter and non-of them seem to be headed towards our moon. Based on this information, the only conclusion that I can come up with, was if the moon was to be blown up by some crazy scientist. Many ...

849 wordsWhat is required for a planet to be able to support life? This is a question that people have been trying to answer for many years. Earth is a very unique planet because it is the only one proven to support life. Living organisms need certain things in order to survive that are not found on any other planet. Some of these life supporting features include food, water, atmosphere, temperature, rotation, gravity, surface and a moon. First, living things need a source of food. Energy is needed in or...

Earths Rotation Solar Wind
1,404 wordsTHE MOON Called Luna by the Romans, Selene and Artemis by the Greeks, and many other names in other mythologies. The Moon, of course, has been known since prehistoric times. It is the second brightest object in the sky after the Sun. As the Moon orbits around the Earth once per month, the angle between the Earth, the Moon and the Sun changes; we see this as the cycle of the Moons phases. The time between successive new moons is 29. 5 days (709 hours), slightly different from the Moons orbital pe...
