Why are there different kinds of moons?

Moons are big rocks in space so they are not created all the same way.


How many moons are there in the world?

none there is some in space but none on earth


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.


How many earths can fit in the moon?

Lots of articles say you can fit 49 or 30 whatever moons in earth but this is not true because the moon is 24.2% the size of earth so about 4 moons. Lots of science shows like the universe on history channel say 4 moons can fit in earth. But the Earth is much denser so about 45 moons would equal the mass of the earth. EDIT: The diameter of the moon is approximately 24.2% the diameter of Earth, but this does not necessarily mean that the volumes are in this ratio. Therefore, you cannot conclude that there are about 4 moons. If no volume was left unused, approximately 49 moons could fit into the Earth (this is not possible in reality as there would have to be empty space to be able to fit the moons into the Earth. So the actual amount of moons that could fit into the Earth is going to be a little less than 49 moons (36 according to some sources).


The natural body in space that orbits a planet?

A natural celestial body that orbits a planet is called a satellite. Moons are satellites of planets. The Earth has one moon, but other planets like Jupiter and Uranus have many moons or satellites.

Where is the moon found?

The moon can be found in space. Moons will orbit around planets that have moons. Earth has one moon that gives four different phases each month.

How many moons would fit inside Earth?

(This answer assumes that a moon is a moon the size of Earth's moon) The volume of Earth is about 49 times bigger than the moon, so Earth has enough space for 49 moons if there were no space between the moons. If both Earth and the moons are assumed to be perfect spheres (which they aren't quite), then about 36 moons would fit inside Earth, since there is no way to put all the moons inside Earth without there being space in between them. Hello my name is shaedra martin and my way of answering your question is simply easy. the moon can fit into earth 4 times.


What is the moons nearest neighbor in space?

Our moon's nearest neighbour is us, the Earth.

Can moons be satellites?

Yes. "Moons" are _natural_ satellites, as opposed to the artificial satellites that we build here on Earth and launch into space on rockets.


What are moons and international space stations examples of?

Moons are natural satellites that orbit planets, such as Earth's Moon, while international space stations are artificial structures in space where astronauts live and work, such as the International Space Station (ISS). Both moons and space stations play key roles in space exploration and scientific research.


What are all the moons in space?

Not sure what you mean by this. All the moons in space are moons.


How is earth different from space?

Space is different from earth because space has no gravitation, earth has gravitation


Are there any moons planets or satellites on mars?

There are no moons are planets actually on Mars as moons and planets orbit out in space. You see much the same planets from Mars as you do from Earth, except Earth is visible as one of the brightest objects in the sky. Mars itself has two small moons named Phobos and Deimos.


What is one cycle that is caused by earth's movement in space?

Rotation


Why do the planets have moon?

In some cases, the moons were created from the same swirling space-dust as their planets were. In the case of Luna, Earth's moon, it is most likely that it was hurled out of Earth itself when Earth was struck by a gigantic asteroid.
