P3_6 What did the moon say to the Earth? I'm falling for you.
Abstract
The amount of energy that be needed to prevent the moon from colliding with Earth is around 5.72 $\times$ 10$^{24}$ J and the orbit described would have a time period of 255 days. It would take 5 million years for the UK to produce the high amount of energy required and even if we could produce the energy, the tidal effects from the moon would be disastrousDownloads
