Figures like that are still mind boggling. Like…“We put dudes up there!!!”
I’ll never stop being awed and impressed by the vastness of space and just about anything humanity has done with it.
Especially because from the ground just looking up there, you can almost convince yourself it’s not that far, and if you just believed hard enough, you could simply reach out and touch it.
Roll it how far each time? Are you saying roll 10x the distance of itself / i.e 10 complete rotations?
Yes, 10 circumferences. Earth is about 24,000 miles in circumference. Moon is more than 240,000 miles distant.
Super helpful! Thanks! :D
