2 The moons facts The interesting facts of the moon By Dillon and Melanie 11/11/11

3 SIZE It takes 4 moons to make the size of earth It takes 4 moons to make the size of earth The moon is ¼ size of the earth. The moon is ¼ size of the earth.

4 Gravity Gravity is what pushes us down on earth there is less gravity on the moon. Gravity is what pushes us down on earth there is less gravity on the moon. The force of gravity depends on the size of the object. The force of gravity depends on the size of the object.

5 Weather and Atmosphere The moon has no atmosphere. The moon has no atmosphere. The moon has no air or wind but it does have extreme temperature. The moon has no air or wind but it does have extreme temperature. In the day it can go up to 260 º F In the day it can go up to 260 º F

6 Landform and Craters The moon has crater all over it. The moon has crater all over it. It will take 2 weeks and a half to count all the craters It will take 2 weeks and a half to count all the craters Craters are a hole caused by a object hitting the surface Craters are a hole caused by a object hitting the surface

7 Water on the moon? Many people think that the moon has no water. Many people think that the moon has no water. But scientists have found that the moon has 25 gallons of water But scientists have found that the moon has 25 gallons of water

8 Weathering and Erosion There is no erosion on the moon. There is no erosion on the moon. There is no rain, thunder, or lightning. There is no rain, thunder, or lightning.

9 Time to rotate on its axis It takes 27 day to rotate on its axis. It takes 27 day to rotate on its axis.

10 Time to revolve/orbit once It will take 29 day and a half to rotate around the earth. It will take 29 day and a half to rotate around the earth.

11 Effects on other cycles The moon pushes our tides everyday. The moon pushes our tides everyday. The moon does many things for the earth. The moon does many things for the earth.

12 The Earth We are now starting on earth thank you hope you enjoy! We are now starting on earth thank you hope you enjoy!

13 Earth size As you can see the earth is one of the biggest planets it is 4x the size of the moon! It will take 4 moons to equal the size of the earth.

14 Earths landform and craters About 35 million years after the dinosaurs died a asteroid hit the pacific ocean? About 35 million years after the dinosaurs died a asteroid hit the pacific ocean? It was 1 mile long and going 70,000 miles an hour super sonic speed? It was 1 mile long and going 70,000 miles an hour super sonic speed? Splashed through 700 feet of water Amazing!!!!!!

15 Earths gravity Gravity is what keeps us on earth. Gravity is what keeps us on earth. The earth has 6x as much gravity as the moon! The earth has 6x as much gravity as the moon!

16 Earths weather and erosion Erosion is everywhere in everything. Erosion is everywhere in everything. Earths weather is everywhere in the clouds on the ground in the air weather is everywhere Earths weather is everywhere in the clouds on the ground in the air weather is everywhere

17 Earths water 2/3 of the planet is water 1/3 is land. 2/3 of the planet is water 1/3 is land. In the united states we use 323 gallons of water everyday In the united states we use 323 gallons of water everyday

18 Weather and Atmosphere Air wind and rain are all weather in the clouds on the ground weather is all around us. Air wind and rain are all weather in the clouds on the ground weather is all around us. The Earth surrounded by air which we call Atmosphere The Earth surrounded by air which we call Atmosphere

19 Time to Rotate on it’s axis It will take 24 hours for the Earth to rotate on it’s axis It will take 24 hours for the Earth to rotate on it’s axis Axis means to spin fully around Axis means to spin fully around

20 Time to revolve/orbit once It takes 365 day to orbit around the sun It takes 365 day to orbit around the sun it takes about 8,000 hours to orbit around the sun it takes about 8,000 hours to orbit around the sun

21 Effects on other cycles The tilt of the earth causes the change of the seasons. The tilt of the earth causes the change of the seasons. The season are fall, winter, summer, spring, The season are fall, winter, summer, spring,

22 Random facts Humans have landed 6 times on the moon and did experiments. Humans have landed 6 times on the moon and did experiments.
