2. Extraterrestrial sky - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extraterrestrial_sky

   In the Moon's sky Earth has an angular size of 1° 48 ′ to 2°, [15] about 3.7 times the apparent size of the Moon or Sun in Earth's sky (due to the near equal apparent size of the Moon and Sun at lunar distance). While the Sun moves across the Moon's sky within fourteen days, the daytime of a lunar day or the lunar month, Earth is only ...

3. Orbit of the Moon - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbit_of_the_Moon

   An eclipse of the Moon or Sun can occur when the nodes align with the Sun, roughly every 173.3 days. Lunar orbit inclination also determines eclipses; shadows cross when nodes coincide with full and new moon when the Sun, Earth, and Moon align in three dimensions. In effect, this means that the "tropical year" on the Moon is only 347 days long.

4. Moon - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moon

   The Moon is Earth's only natural satellite. It orbits at an average distance of 384,400 km (238,900 mi), about 30 times the diameter of Earth. Tidal forces between Earth and the Moon have synchronized the Moon's orbital period (lunar month) with its rotation period at 29.5 Earth days, causing the same side of the Moon to always face Earth.

5. Far side of the Moon - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Far_side_of_the_moon

   The far side of the Moon is the lunar hemisphere that always faces away from Earth, opposite to the near side, because of synchronous rotation in the Moon's orbit. Compared to the near side, the far side's terrain is rugged, with a multitude of impact craters and relatively few flat and dark lunar maria ("seas"), giving it an appearance closer ...

6. List of Solar System objects most distant from the Sun

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Solar_System...

   One particularly distant body is 90377 Sedna, which was discovered in November 2003.It has an extremely eccentric orbit that takes it to an aphelion of 937 AU. [2] It takes over 10,000 years to orbit, and during the next 50 years it will slowly move closer to the Sun as it comes to perihelion at a distance of 76 AU from the Sun. [3] Sedna is the largest known sednoid, a class of objects that ...

8. 2018 AG37 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2018_AG37

   The object was nicknamed "FarFarOut" to emphasize its distance from the Sun. [3] At the faint apparent magnitude of 25 , only the largest telescopes in the world can observe it. [ 1 ] Being so far from the Sun, 2018 AG 37 moves slowly among the background stars and has been observed only nine times in the first two years. [ 5 ]
