Moon Caleb Rohr May 10 th 2013 Mrs. Lower

Well if a two ton truck was on the moon it would weigh about 666 pounds. How much would you weigh on the moon.

If you weigh 80 pounds on the earth you would weigh 13 pounds on the moon.

Whatever you weigh on the earth you divide that by 6 and that’s how much you weigh on the moon.

craters` are on planets and moons, meteor craters are the circular depressions caused by the impacts of other objects. What are craters

There are about 6 trillion craters on the moon. Most craters on the Moon that have diameters less than about 15 kilometers have a simple, bowl-like form.

Impact craters are the remains of collisions between an asteroid, comet, or meteorite and the Moon.

The moon is a bit more than one-fourth (27 percent) the size of Earth, a much smaller ratio (1:4) than any other planets and their moons. How big is the moon

T he moon's surface area is about 14.6 million square miles (38 million square kilometers), which is less than the total surface area of the continent of Asia (17.2 million sq. mi or 44.5 million sq. km).

the moon “weighs” 162 sextillion pounds, or 162,000,000,000,00 0,000,000,000 pounds.

Did you know in 2020 Nasa is going to build a base on the moon. The average distance from the Moon to the Earth is kilometers ( miles). The Moon orbits the Earth every 27.3 days Fun facts

Reflection slide slide I think the whole project went well because some things were interesting to learn about and it went really fast

Do you believe that is other life out there? NASA's powerful Kepler Telescope has discovered three new planets in distant solar systems that could be habitable and sustain life. NASA scientists said two of the planets are part of the Kepler-62 five planet system, known as Kepler-62-E and Kepler-62-F. A third planet has been found in the Kepler-69 system and is called Kepler-69-C. All three planets orbit a star similar to our sun and they are all in something called the habitable zone. That is the area near a star like our sun that can theoretically hold liquid water. Scientists also said they believe these planets have a temperature similar to that of earth. But there is no way to know for sure. The plants are so far away, actually light years away, and we do not have the technology yet to travel there to find out for sure. This is not the first time NASA's Keller Telescope discovered new planets that could possibly sustain life. Back in 2011, a planet named Kepler-22-B was discovered.
