Is Meteor Moon Possible

If you have heard about or watched the Meteor Moon, you may wonder if it is possible. What would happen if the moon was twice as close to Earth? To find out, we evaluate the the effects of the gravity it exerts on the Earth including its sky, land, and oceans.

I love the sun's Corona virus *clears throat intensely* I mean corona

[johncunningham]

Saturn has the same effect on one of its moons the Moon is ejecting ice due to the gravitational pull and it's forming the last ring.

[andykapsar]

over millions of years, the moon has drifted away from earth. at one point id guess it may have been that close

[chrislindner]

Thanks for putting out this content people don't understand how many variables it takes just to be alive now you put into play the fact that the moon controls the tides and other things in our life👂👍👍

The Apollo astronauts put a mirror on the moon and every day an astronomer shoots a laser at it and it reflects back to earth…that time it takes is then recorded. The Apollo experiments show us that the moon is steadily moving away from us, and was once much closer.

If more water were to go inland, wouldn’t that mean that more land would be uncovered somewhere else on earth?

[denniscarroll]

The Moon used to be closer. It's moving away from us at a small rate.

[IberianCraftsman]

well, the moon gets a bit further away each year, it used to be much closer

[sma]

That is why God created everything perfect so humans can live on Earth.

[jacobquackenbush]

Don’t tell me this stuff. Now I’m worried the moon is gonna play a prank on us and move closer to the earth?

[angharadhafod]

If the moon were half the distance away, it would also orbit much faster. Kepler's laws of planetary motion.

High and low tides aren't just because of the moon. They're because of the sun. The moon's gravity stretches the oceans but the sun's gravity causes high tide when the sun and moon are perpendicular to each other relative to the earth

[Einhven]

So instead of ocean tide, IO as tidal shifts in its crust... interesting!

[chrisyunge]

Point of fact, h2o weighs 1700 lbs per cubic yard, we've got electromags that can pick up aircraft carriers, yet if you walk a 1000 ft away, and hold up a iron object nothing, l saw astronaut jumping and floating in the moon weak gravity, in steel reinforced suit so how can an object with that weak gravity field affect the oceans, l suggest its oscillation, like the water in a glass, and its just mere coincidence. We've got tropical vegetation in the artic as well as equatorial animals flash frozen in the siberean tundra, showing the earth was tilted violently due to meteor strike, just a thought.😎

Did you know the center line between earth and the moon has a gravity anomaly the astronauts did periodical tests of a pin floating in the capsule .

[jmecky]

The moon's gravity does not cause all tides. If the moon's gravity caused all the tides we would only have one high tide per day. It's the fact that the Earth and Moon are rotating around a central point between the Earth and the Moon and the gravity of the Moon and the Sun.

[freedragon]

Don't forget Werewolves. The moon effects them too!

[jaywalker]

Geomagnetism and geoelectric forces contribute way more than just this little we are told.
If it can cause more volcanic activity this can lead to more chances of a global catastrophe by volcano!
This is actually happening to us right now between us losing our magnetic field due to polar shifting!

[austingaddy]

So we only have two high tides once a month... (In one location) however yes earth in a whole has a constant high tide that follows the moon.... High tide follows the moon...

[williamjordan]

It's actually getting farther away.
