The moon is Earth's only natural satellite, and is the 5th largest natural satellite in the Solar System. The moon does not have its own light source and the Moon's light actually comes from the reflection of the sun's light.
The average distance of Earth-Moon from center to center is 384.403 km, about 30 times the diameter of Earth. The diameter of the Moon is 3,474 km, [1] slightly smaller than a quarter of the Earth's diameter. This means that the volume of the Moon is only about 2 percent of Earth's volume and the gravitational pull on its surface is about 17 percent less than the Earth's gravitational pull. The moon circulates around the Earth once every 27.3 days (orbital period), and the periodic variation in the Earth-Moon-Sun system is responsible for the occurrence of repeated Moon phases every 29.5 d
