Presentation transcript:

The Moon Earth’s moon has no air or water. It has only one sixth of Earth’s gravity. There is a temperature range of 270 degrees Celsius.

The moon is about 1/4 of the size of Earth. How did the moon form? One idea is the collision theory, which states that a very large object hit the Earth. This object broke apart and a large piece of it went into orbit around earth. This became the moon.

Features on the moon’s surface include craters and marias. 1. Craters -caused by impacts from meteoroids

2. Marias - dark flat areas; thought to have been filled with lava at one time

The first manned moon landing happened on July 20, 1969 with the Apollo 11 mission. Buzz Aldren and Neil Armstrong, U.S. astronauts, landed a Spacecraft called the Eagle in the Sea of Tranquility. They walked around and explored the moon,bringing back Samples of rocks.

There were several other missions to the moon. Many photographs were taken.

There is renewed interest in exploring the moon today. Do you know why?
