The Moon is way more fascinating than you might think! For starters, did you know it’s slowly drifting away from Earth? Yup, about 1.5 inches per year, which means the days on Earth are actually getting slightly longer over time. The Moon doesn’t shine on its own—it reflects light from the Sun, and we only ever see one side because it’s tidally locked to Earth. Oh, and those craters? They’ve been there for billions of years because there’s no wind or water to smooth them out. Scientists think the Moon might have formed when a Mars-sized object crashed into Earth long ago. Plus, without the Moon, Earth’s tilt would wobble wildly, making seasons unpredictable—talk about a cosmic stabilizer! 🌕✨ Animation is created by Bright Side. —————————————————————————————- Music from TheSoul Sound: https://thesoul-sound.com/ Check our Bright Side podcast on Spotify and leave a positive review! https://open.spotify.com/show/0hUkPxD34jRLrMrJux4VxV Subscribe to Bright Side: https://goo.gl/rQTJZz —————————————————————————————- Our Social Media: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/brightside Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/brightside.official TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@brightside.official?lang=en Telegram: https://t.me/bright_side_official Stock materials (photos, footages and other): https://www.depositphotos.com https://www.shutterstock.com https://www.eastnews.ru —————————————————————————————- For more videos and articles visit: http://www.brightside.me —————————————————————————————- This video is made for entertainment purposes.
