Will the moon ever collide with Earth due to its falling out of orbit?
Satellites do so will the moon?

Nope, read a few articles lately through StumbleUpon one of which was directly related to NASA, apparently the moon is actually getting 1 inch further away from the Earth each year and in 1 million years the effects will be noticeable.
It's happening due to the Earths rotation slowing down causing the moon rotation to slow down which causes it to drift further away, if it was spinning faster it would be moving in towards Earth.
The good news is though it will eventually hit a point where it wont drift away any further due to its orbit stabilizing!0 -
and by that point the sun will have expanded to the extent that the surfac e of this planet is too hot to sustain life and we shall all be doomed
the end is nigh0 -
As you posted this in the CC and not the Hub.....
Surely as the moon is made of cheese, as the sun expands, it will just melt.
Does that also mean it will rain melted cheese?

if the moon is made out of cheese, what hceesewould it be, Edam, Cheddar, Wenslydale, the list goes on and on!
if it starts raining Boursin for example i am stayin indoors, cheddar, will thats a different story!0 -
As for the type of cheese the moon is made of I think it is Lancashire as it is white and crumbly looking at the NASA pics of the faked moon landings.
Maybe it is cheddar.....I will send Mr Spoon an email asking him later today0 -
That's no moon. It's a space station.
We're caught in its tractor beam and it's pulling us in.0 -

It's not wensleydale, it's not edam, it's not cheddar, it's not any cheese named after somewhere else. It's "moon cheese". the rarest and tastiest of all cheese.
Did you know you can also get moon gel?

No, as we all know the moon was made backwards so it must be Edam."Youth's a mask, but it don't last

The moon is clearly made of cheese - this was established beyond doubt in Nick Park's documentary "A Grand Day Out". Photographs from the moon landings appear to show the surface covered with a fine layer of what appears to be ash - so my guess is that this is a "chevre". If it were Edam it would have a waxy red surface.

Would that explain the blood red moons we get every so often.....maybe the klangers remove said wax from the surface to allow the cheese to breathe before once again coating it......
So many questions????0 -
Moon factoid.
We all know that the moon's rotation is in exact sync with its orbit in relation to Earth which is why we only ever see one side of the moon.
Well eventually the same will happen to the Earth - its rotation will slow (caused by the gravitational torque from the moon) and eventually it will be in sync and only one half the planet will be able to see the moon from then on.
Our species will be long gone by then.You only need two tools: WD40 and Duck Tape.
If it doesn't move and should, use the WD40.
If it shouldn't move and does, use the tape.0 -
name that moon? (and no cheating)
definately made from stilton or danish blue0 -
Won't the sun have engulfed us by that point though?0
