Earth and Moon two best friends

by: Lilly and Hanna

size• The moon is 27 percent the size

of earth• Earths size is 12,742 km

Landforms/craters• Craters hit the moon because the

moon doesn’t have an atmosphere• Some of earths landforms are

mountains,valleys,plains ,wetlands and drylands

gravity

• You would only experience 17% the force on the moon than on earth

• There is 6 times the gravity on the Earth than on the moon

Weather and atmosphere

• The moon doesn’t have an atmosphere

• It can dip down to -153 celsius during the night and during the day it can rise up to 103 celsius on the moon

• But the Earth does if we didn’t have atmosphere we wouldn’t live

Water• The moon only has a little bit of

water• 70%of Earth is filled with water

Weather and erosion• On Earth weather is caused when

rock is warn down or dissolved into pieces from the rain or the wind

• No weathering and erosion on the moon because there is no wind or running water

Time to rotate on its axis• The moon rotates counter clockwise taking

27.5 days• It takes 24 hours for Earth to rotate

What causes tides• The gravity force between the Earth

and the moon

Time to revolve/orbit once• It takes the moon about29.5 days to

revolve around the Earth• It takes Earth 365 days to rotate

around the sun

What causes seasons • Since the Earth is tilted as it makes

its journey around the sun it causes our seasons
