The Moon does something we never realized #astronomy #shorts

[00:00:00]The moon is at an average distance [music] of 384,400 km from Earth. If it were a bit closer, its gravity would cause massive tidal waves, submerging coastal cities. If it were further away, Earth would wobble on its axis and the seasons would turn into chaos. The moon not only stabilizes our 23.5° axial tilt, but also balances Earth's rotation speed like a brake.

[00:00:22]Without the moon, Earth would rotate much faster and a day would last only 6 to 12 hours, leading to life-threatening storms and disrupting the balance of day and night. Furthermore, the craters on its surface are proof that it has acted as a shield against some meteors for billions of years. These are just a few of the wisdoms behind the creation of the moon for our benefit.
