The earth's mass is roughly 80 times the moon's mass.
So if both bodies were placed near a third body much larger and much more
massive than either of them, the earth would "weigh" roughly 80 times the
moon's weight.

∙ 10y agoThe moon's surface is littered with countless craters of varying sizes. There is no moisture on the lunar surface. The moon is covered with a very thin (about 1/2" thick) later of regolith, which is basically just lunar dust. The regolith is what makes the moon shine so brightly at night. The dust sticks to everything that touches it. Lunar dust is not like dust on earth. It look like a very fine powder.

The Moon has no liquid water and has no atmosphere. It only has about two inches of dust and a lot of craters which vary in size.

∙ 12y agoThe mass of the earth is about 80 times as much as the mass of the moon.
to be more precise the moons mass, worked out by measuring its density and atmosphere level, is 7.36 x 10 to the power of 22 kilograms or 73600000000000000000000 kilograms.
this means that the mass of the earth is about 5.9742 x 10 to the power of 24 or 5974200000000000000000000 kilograms.

- Moon: 7.3477 × 1022 kg
So the Moon is 0.0123 the mass of the Earth

How many times is Earth larger than the Moon?
Earth's diameter is about 3.7 times bigger than the Moon's Earth's volume is about 50 times greater than the Moon's Earth's surface area is about 14.29 times greater than the Moon's Earth's mass is about 81.3 times greater than the Moon's
How many centimeters from earth to the moon?
The surface of the Earth is exactly 19,241,453,486 centimeters from the surface of the moon.
Can the astronauts talk on the surface of moon as on the earth?
no there is no air in the surface of the moon
Why is the moon full of craters but the earth is not?
The Moon's surface is heavily cratered because of of meteor impacts. Meteors are able to more commonly strike the Moon's surface than the Earth's surface because the Moon's atmosphere is not as strong as the Earth's, so less meteors burn up in the Moon's atmosphere than they do in the Earth's atmospheres. So the craters are simply the result of heavy meteor impacts. Answer #2 The moon has no weather to erode craters. Speculation is that the earth has been hit at least as many times as the moon because of our greater mass. Wind, water, and plate tectonics wipe out the evidence on earth.
Why do you think the Moon's surface is different from the earth?
Because when I look up from the Earth, the surface of the Moon looks like nothing on Earth.
What is the distance and temperature range of Earth's moon?
Mean surface temperature (day)107°CMean surface temperature (night)-153°CMaximum surface temperature123°CMinimum surface temperature-233°C

How does the temperature change when the moon is close to the earth?
It doesn't - the moon's proximity to Earth has no bearing on Earth's temperature - the Sun does that.
What is the shape of the moon is it cool or hot?
The moon like Earth is basically a globe or ball. it is cold except for the changes in temperature on the surface caused by the sun.
Why do you think the Moon's surface is different from the earth?
Because when I look up from the Earth, the surface of the Moon looks like nothing on Earth.
How much surface area does the earth have?
the surface of the moon is 0.074 of earth's surface area

What is the gravity on the moon compared to earth's gravity?
An object on the moon's surface weighs 0.165 as much as it does on the Earth's surface.
Which unlike earth temperature range from 21908c to 1108c on the surface of moon state reasonn?
The surface of the moon never gets anywhere near 21908 degrees Celsius (which is a ridiculously precise number). The surface of the Sun isn't that hot.
What is the distance between earth and heaven?
The same as between the Moon and the Earth. The distance from the clouds to the surface of the Earth is insignificant, compared to the Moon-Earth distance.The same as between the Moon and the Earth.
