Only the Earths gravity has a direct affect on humans, because the moon is 1/4 the size of Earth, so the moon's gravity is much less than the earth's gravity, 83.3% (or 5/6) less to be exact.

Our bodie mass is way too small to be affected in any way by any planet in the solar system. The moon moves away at about an inch every three years, so it will not affect anybody anytime soon.

The Moon's gravitational pull does affect people, but it is much weaker than Earth's gravity. The difference in gravity between the side of a person facing the Moon and the side facing away from the Moon is very small, so the effects on the human body are negligible.

How does gravity affect tides?

Tidal movements result mainly from the pull of the moons gravity on the ocean.


Do all of the moons not have gravity?

Everything has gravity, the bigger it is the more it has. Moons DO have gravity, but it might be less than Earth's.


How does gravity affect the movement of the moons?

Earths gravity keeps the moon from flying off in the same way the sun keeps earth in balance.


How does the moon affect the earth's oceans?

The moons gravitational pull is what causes tides.

What planet has shepherd satellites?

Saturn. These moons affect Saturn's rings by their gravity and so they sort of "shepherd" the rings in some places.


Does the moons gravity affect the ocean?

Yes, the Moon's gravity affects the ocean through tidal forces, causing the oceans to bulge out on the sides facing the Moon and on the opposite side. This results in the regular rise and fall of sea levels known as tides.


Would having 2 moons affect the earths gravity why?

Having two moons orbiting Earth would have a minimal impact on Earth's gravity because the gravitational force between Earth and the moons would be relatively weak. The effect on tides and the Earth's rotation might be more significant due to the additional gravitational pull exerted by the second moon.
