Will the United States ever be a place where the
citizens are referred to as Americans, like the
citizens of Cuba are referred to primarily as

Sun And Moon High Water
577 words
The moon, Tides Lunar Tides The moon, being much
nearer to the earth than the sun, is the principal
cause of tides. When the moon is directly over a
given point on the surface of the earth, it exerts
a powerful pull on the water, which therefore
rises above its normal level. Water covering the
portion of the earth farthest from the moon is
also subject to this pull, so that another
