Moon

The Moon is Earth’s only natural satellite and the fifth largest in the Solar System. It orbits Earth at an average distance of about 384,400 km, completing a revolution every 27.3 days. The Moon’s surface is characterized by craters, mountains, and lava plains called maria. Its gravitational influence causes tides on Earth and stabilizes the planet’s axial tilt. The Moon has a very thin exosphere and no atmosphere. It has been a key focus of scientific study and exploration, including the Apollo missions.
