In a rare discovery, scientists have discovered that the Moon is slowly moving away from Earth. The Moon is the only natural satellite that orbits our planet. Previously, it was assumed that it remained at the same distance from the Earth due to gravitational pull. But the new discovery has raised some questions about the moon.
According to NASA, the Moon is slowly moving away from Earth at 3.8 cm per year. The Moon was once a key element of timekeeping, as it was used as a calendar by ancient human civilizations. However, the latest discovery has raised many questions about the earlier findings and discoveries.
If the Moon had continued to move away from the Earth at the same rate, then it would probably have collided with the Earth about 1.5 billion years ago, which has never happened in the past. The new discovery of the increasing distance between the Moon and the Earth may be interesting.
But it is also a "poor guide to the past," believe Professor Joshua Davis from the University of Quebec in Canada and his collaborator Margriet Lantink from the University of Wisconsin, as well as their colleagues from the University of Utrecht in the Netherlands and Geneva in Switzerland.
But why is the Moon moving away from the Earth?
Experts believe that the main reason may be the so-called "Milankovi? cycles". They describe the slight deviation in the shape of the Earth's orbit and its axis, and its effects on the amount of sunlight the Earth receives.
The amount of sunlight the Earth receives greatly affects its climate, and is an indicator of periods of wet and dry weather. "Milankovic cycles" can lead to a complete change in weather in a region. They were once the reason for the green period in the Sahara Desert.
They are also the main forces that affect the size of lakes on Earth. These cycles and frequencies also determine the distance between the Moon and the Earth. According to scientists, about 2.46 billion years ago, the Moon was 60,000 km closer to Earth than it is today. This means that our planet received about 17 hours of sunlight per day./Bota.al
