  1. The Earth and the Moon By Cecily Davis

  2. Gravity Moon Earth • The moon’s gravity is 1.622m/s2. That is about 6 times less than earth’s gravity! • The earth’s gravity is 9.78 m/s2. That is about 6 times more gravity than the moon

  3. Size moon Earth The size of the moon is about 3,474 kilometers. That is 9,268 kilometers less than the Earth The size of the Earth more is about 12,742 kilometers . That is about 9,268 kilometers more than the moon.kilometers than the moon

  4. Landforms and Craters Craters on the moon Landforms on Earth The craters on the moon are caused by space rocks that hit the moon • There are many different landforms on earth such as Bays, canyons, cliffs, hills, islands, lakes, and plains.

  5. Weather and Atmosphere Moon earth • The moon hasNO atmosphere or weather. The only thing that keeps it in orbit is earth’s gravity • The earth has atmosphere and weather such as rain , snow, and hail

  6. WATER moon earth NASA has found some frozen water on the moon. • The earth is made up of 71 percentage of water

  7. WEATHERING and EROSION moon earth • Weathering will happen because of space rocks • Weathering is the breaking down or dissolving of rocks

  8. Time to rotate on its axis moon earth • It takes 27 hours 43 minutes and 11.6 seconds for the moon to rotate on its axis. • The length of the rotation on its axis is 24 hours

  9. Time to revolve Around the earth Around the sun • It takes the moon 29 days to revolve • It takes 365 days and 6 hours for the earth to revolve around the sun

  10. How the moon effects tides • The moon’s gravitational pull causes the oceans tide to change.

  11. What causes seasons? • The earth is tilted at a 23.45 degree tilt so when the sun shines on our earth it causes our seasons
