What can you tell about the moon's size, surface,
atmosphere, and location?
Answer: The moon is 2,000 miles around the The surface
of the moon has about two inches of dust. Much of this
dust has fallen to the moon from the spaces between the
planets over the last several billions years. It probably
feels pretty soft. You can see this in some pictures taken
by the astronauts of their footprints on the moon.
• How many people have walked on the moon? Who
were the first two humans to walk on the moon?
When? What was the name of their spacecraft?
Answer: The name of the spacecraft was luna. Only 12
people have walked on the moons surface. Neal
Armstrong was the first person to ever walk on the
moons surface. And was shortly followed Edwin
(Buzz) Aldrin.
• What are the phases of the moon? Explain each phase.
How does the moon move? (Talk about its orbit and its
rotation.)
Answer: The moon moves on its axel the 4 main stages are
the new moon day zero, First Quarter day seven, Full moon
day 14, and the third Gibbous day 10, Waxing crescent,
Waning Gibbous, and Waning Crescent. The moon moves
around the earth which moves around the Quarter day 21.
The other ones are the waxing sun.
 How far is the moon from the earth?
Answer:It is about 250,000 miles from the earth to the
moon. There are eight phases of the moon
The phases are named after how much of the moon we
can see, and whether the amount visible is increasing,
or decreasing each day.
The Sun was born nearly five billion years ago from a
cloud of gas and dust called a nebula. The gas and
dust swirled around until it condensed into a
tremendous ball of gas which became our Sun.

The distance from the sun to the
Earth is 93 million miles and 150
million kilometers away. The distance
from the sun to the moon is
92,821,000 miles.
Solar flares can sometimes interrupt with
phone calls, radio, or television they look
like (from earth) a big explosion of fire.
sunspots are a region of the solar surface
that is dark and relatively cool; it has
extremely high magnetic field . they look
like damp and dark spots like a crater on
the moon.

The core is the center of the sun. The
radioactive zone is outer layer of the core.
Convective zone is the outer layer of the
radioactive zone the turbulent convection
is the outer layer of the convective zone.

70% of the Earth
is water and 30%
is land. The
distance from
Earth to the sun
is 93 million
miles
The distance for
the surface to the
middle of the earth
is 3960 miles.
There is 4 layers
the fist layer is
the inner core the
2 is outer core the
3 layer is magma
the last layer is
the curst

The earth orbits on its
axes The earth is
orbiting the sun and
spinning its self and
different sections of
the earth face away
from the sun witch
create seasons.
The earths
atmosphere
mostly made
of Oxygen.
The Earth is
located in the
middle Mars
and Venus
