1. The average diameter of the moon is 3475 km. She takes fifth place in the list of the largest satellites of the solar system - only Ganymede, Titan, Callisto and Io are larger than her.
2. The mass of the moon is 81 times less than the mass of the Earth, the volume is almost 50 times.

3. The surface area of the moon is 58 million square kilometers. This is more than the area of Africa, but less than the area of Asia.
4. Thanks to the libration effect from the Earth, 59% of the lunar surface can be seen.
5. According to the radioisotope analysis of lunar samples, Tycho Crater with its famous ray system formed 108 million years ago, when dinosaurs still reigned on Earth.

6. The moon seems to us a very bright body. But in fact, the reflectivity (albedo) of its surface is only 13%, which is almost three times less than the albedo of the Earth. Therefore, in their joint photographs, the brightness of the moon is often specifically increased.
7. Over 40% of the visible side of the moon is occupied by the seas - dark lowlands covered with frozen lava deposits.
8. The reverse side of the moon is markedly different from the visible. On average, it is higher, most of the largest lunar craters are located on it, but at the same time there are only two seas.

9. Now the moon has no magnetic field. However, analysis of lunar soil samples showed that in the distant past it had its own magnetic field, which even exceeded the earth's strength.
10. The first living creatures flying around the moon were the Central Asian steppe turtles aboard the Soviet probe Zond-5 launched on September 15, 1968. They included Drosophila flies, Khrushchuk beetles, various plants, seeds and microorganisms. The lander of the ship successfully splashed in the Indian Ocean on September 21.(не обращай внемания на ссылки:)
