Why is the moon Slowly leaving Earth?

追加: 2026-05-07

[00:00:00]The moon is ghosting Earth, and there's nothing we can do about it. Every single year, the moon moves 3.8 cm away from Earth. That's roughly 1.5 in.

[00:00:09]The moon is being pulled away by its own gravitational tug with Earth's oceans.

[00:00:14]Every time tides push and pull, they're slowly throwing the moon further into space. In about 50 billion years, the moon will be completely gone from our sky. Enjoy the full moon while it lasts because it has an expiration date.
