A lunar distance is equivalent to the distance from the Earth to the Moon which is approx. 384,000km. So to convert lunar distances to km, just multiply the lunar distance by 384,000. In this case .85*384,000 = 326,400km. And if you're referring to Asteroid 2005 YU55, then it will pass closer to us than the Moon does.
The speed of light is approximately 299,792 kilometers per second. The number of lunar orbits required to cover this distance would be 12000 because the circumference of the Moon's orbit around the Earth is about 10,000 kilometers. Multiplying this by 12000 gives an approximate value close to the speed of light.
Oh, what a lovely question! The distance to the moon can vary because it travels in an oval-shaped orbit around the Earth. On average, it is about 384,400 kilometers away. That's quite a journey for curiosity and exploration, isn't it?
The distance to the moon can be calculated by measuring the time it takes for light or radio signals to travel to the moon and back (laser ranging), or by using radar techniques. The average distance to the moon is about 384,400 kilometers.
23,895 miles
No on both points. The lunar eclipse can occur only at Full Moon, and has no connection with the moon's distance from earth.
To find the distance between the Earth and Moon you would use Lunar distance. Lunar distance is the measurement from and to the Earth and Moon which calculates 238,900 miles
Another name for a lunar valley is a rille. These are long, narrow depressions on the moon's surface that can be several kilometers wide and hundreds of kilometers long. Rilles are believed to have formed through a combination of volcanic and tectonic processes.
Yes the nike lunar eclipse is one of the best for the field of long distance running shoes. Its flat soles provide a soft and nice feel to your feet so i believe it is recommended for that.
The Lunar Laser Ranging experiment is the ongoing meaurement of the distance between planet Earth and the moon. The measurment is calculated by using a laser.
-- The semi-major-axis of the lunar orbit is 384,403 km (238,857 miles). -- The distance at perigee (closest point to Earth) is 363,104 km (225,622 miles). -- The distance at apogee (farthest point from Earth) is 406,696 km (252,088 miles).
An apolune is the point of an elliptical lunar orbit where the distance between the satellite and the Moon is at its maximum.
