The Moon

How did the moon form? The moon was created from a HUGE asteroid striking an early version of our Earth.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c0FCE4H0Dro

Light and Dark Areas on the Moon The light areas are highlands.  The dark areas are places where asteroids stuck, creating craters. The craters filled with molten lava and cooled. Some craters are hundreds of miles across.

Why do we study the Moon? We study other planets and our moon to understand more about our own planet.

Where are the Craters on Earth? The Earth does have lots of craters. Erosion has eliminated many of them. Crater in Arizona

Crater Impacts Across America and Mexico

 

Asteroid Impacting Earth

Asteroid Collisions http://www.scientificamerican.com/article.cfm?id=interactive-12-events

How Does the Earth and Moon Interact? The Moon and the Earth's mass are close in comparison to the other "parent-satellite" systems. The most observable and prolific interaction is the tidal system.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l37ofe9haMU

Moon Rocks When astronauts brought back rocks from the moon, they found that there were high levels of metals in them.

The Moon's Structure Structure is similar to Earth. Scientists used information from the rocks the found. Determined that the rocks came from the mantle. The mantle makes up the most mass of the Moon. The center, they believe, is probably metallic.

Moon's Phases

Waning vs. Waxing Waxing moon The moon is in its early phases in the first and second weeks. Waning moon The moon is in the final phases in the third and fourth week.

Shadows in Space Cause Eclipses When a shadow seems to make the sun or the moon grow dark. Lunar Eclipse The Moon darkens Solar Eclipse The Sun darkens

Solar Eclipse http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eOvWioz4PoQ   Solar Eclipse http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eOvWioz4PoQ  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E1B3RLf1A1s "Educational Video" Lunar Eclipse  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mhZWIgUUPZ8  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=znQhPnH6brs
