Questions for Discussion: Why Doesn't the Moon Fall Down?
- Why doesn't the Moon hit Earth even though it is "falling" toward it?
- What would happen if the Moon moved faster than it does now?
- How is the Sun able to have so many planetary bodies in orbit around it?
- Why do planets closer to the Sun than Earth not fall into the Sun from the pull of gravity?
- If someone asked you if it's true that the Moon is always falling towards the Earth, what would you tell them?
