Publisher's summary

In the early days of civilization, we knew nothing about the moon. It was considered as a god chasing the sun in an endless race through the sky. Today, we know much more than our ancestors. We can speculate on the creation of the moon and what the Earth would be without the moon. It turns out that our moon has played a much more important role in life development than anyone would have thought.

Have you ever thought about what will happen if the moon disappears, for some reason? John Break answers this question in this book from his series Great Questions of Life.

The way our satellite affects life and our planet is unique. Discover it now, and start this trip through science by listening to this audiobook.

I really appreciate this audible.

In the process roughly joules of gravitational energy is shed into the oceans annually. This is very important for us.

Very happy to listen this great book.

Colliding planetary embryos created entirely new versions of themselves in the case of our own planet a disproportionately large natural satellite in close orbit.

This audible keeps maintaining its knowledge.

The word month after all stems from a word that means moon. Many calendars are based on the changing phases of the moon.

A very simple and well-spoken this audible.

A few thousand years Earth cooled to an object with a molten surface and a steam atmosphere.

I would must suggest this audible to anyone.

The rhythm of the moon's phases has guided humanity for millennia for instance, calendar months are roughly equal to the time it takes to go from one full moon to the next.

A very quick and easy to listen.

The moon and sun together cause the tides. If we’d never had a moon, we’d still have tides, but they wouldn’t be as strong.

This is a massive audible about this topic.

A moonless earth would also change the size of ocean tides making them about one third as high as they are now.

I really inspire to listen this audible

The Earth rotates once each day, and the Moon orbits the Earth once every twenty seven days.

Is this a real book?

This book was incomprehensible and strange, and seemed to be produced by a non-human. It seemed like it was written by artificial intelligence in Chinese and then poorly translated.

Such An Important Audio Book!

The reason that it appears to rise in the east and set in the west is because of the earth’s very fast axial rotation.
