Moon0 The Moon has fascinated mankind

throughout the ages. By simply viewing with the naked eye, one can discern two major types of terrain: relatively bright highlands and darker plains. By the middle of the 17th century, Galileo and other early astronomers made telescopic observations, noting an almost endless overlapping of craters. It has also been known for more than a century that the Moon is less dense than the Earth. Although a certain amount of information was ascertained about the Moon before the space age, this new era has revealed many secrets barely imaginable before that time. Current knowledge of the Moon is greater than for any other solar system object except Earth. This lends to a greater understanding of geologic processes and further appreciation of the complexity of terrestrial planets.

Satellite0 A natural satellite or moon is a

celestial body that orbits a planet or smaller body, which is called its primary. The Moon travels around Earth in an oval orbit at 3680 km per hour. The Moon does not have an atmosphere, so temperatures range from -184 degrees at night and 214 degrees at day.
