Image description: The Moon is seen moving away from planet Earth.
The Moon is slowly moving away from Earth, about 4 cm farther away each year.
Gravity and tidal forces between these two celestial bodies are slowing down the rotation of Earth and increasing the distance from each other.
Missions to the Moon will help us understand how it was created and learn more about its orbit.
