EIGHT ENCHANTING FACTS ABOUT THE MOON
– The distance from the Moon to Earth is 238,857 miles. If you drove from the Moon to Earth at 65 mph it would take you 3,674 hours to get there, or 153 days if you never stopped for bathroom or snack breaks
– The Moon goes round the Earth every 27.3 days

– Neil Amstrong was the very first person to walk on the Moon. He stepped out of his spacecraft, the Eagle, on 21 July 1969 and said “That is one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind”. Weird Fact: There is no pictures of Neil Amstrong on the Moon (they are all of his partner, Buzz Aldrin) except for one where you can just make him out in the reflection in Buzz Aldrin’s helmet.
– Mons Huygens is the tallest mountain on the Moon. It is 15,420 feet tall, just over half the height of Mt Everest (29,029 feet). But because the Moon’s gravitational pull is about 83% less then on Earth, you could pretty much just float to the top. Easy!
