The Earth has an atmosphere that protects it from meteors, etc. It's bigger than the moon. The moon orbits the earth whereas the earth (in the company of the moon) orbits the sun. The Earth supports life (as a function of its atmosphere) - the Moon doesn't (at least as far as we know). The Earth and Moon are terrestial planets (both are made of rock). Earth has atmosphere, water and life. The Moon doesn't have any atmosphere, water nor life. It is tidally locked to earth.... that's why we always see the same face of the Moon and not the other side. hope this info helped
