The moon's gravity causes high and low tides, something known as the tidal force. As the tidal force shifts Earth's mass, it ...

Long ago, the Moon was much nearer Earth. Scientists believe a protoplanet collision created the Moon 4.5 billion years ago.

So the bottom line is that the gravity of the closer tidal bulge on the Earth is pulling the Moon forward, which increases ...

Astronomers have found yet another quasi-moon companion of Earth in its orbit around the Sun believed to be a chunk of our ...

Due to the influence the Earth plays on the moon’s momentum, the Earth’s rotation slows down in response, as explained by DiKerby. However, given that this is such a minor change in distance annually, ...

A new study has revealed that the Earth’s celestial companion, the Moon, is moving away from the Earth at the rate of 1.5 ...

At its nearest, 2025 PN7 comes 186,000 miles (299,337 kilometres) from Earth. Its average distance is about 238,855 miles ...

On Sept. 18, 1977, NASA's Voyager 1 spacecraft took a photo of Earth and the moon. It was the first time both the Earth and ...

As of Friday, Sept. 19, the moon phase is Waning Crescent, and it is 5% lit up to us on Earth, according to NASA's Daily Moon ...

A recently observed object called 2025 PN7 was found orbiting near the Earth. The quasi-moon is expected to accompany our ...

Astronomers have identified a tiny quasi-moon, 2025 PN7, orbiting near Earth for about 60 years. This 62-foot-wide near-Earth ...
