if there's no gravity in outter space, how did man land on the moon?

Perez say: I agree with elfinino... I'm calling troll. But I'll humor you. Firstly the space race was between the U.S. and the Soviet Union, not China. Secondly the moon has gravity plus we use "highly advanced equipment" to get us to the moon. Gravity as said by other people on this question relates directly to the mass of an object and because out in space there isn't much mass there isn't much gravity. Mind you anywhere in our solar system gravity is still very existent and every present, why do you think the planets orbit the sun? The sun's gravity holds them in. Even comets way out in the Oort cloud are heavily affected by the sun's gravity. So in short the of you decided to skip all that, "The smart sciency people at NASA made rockets to shoot us through space to the moon which itself has gravity, letting us land on it and have tea with the little green men". Good day ma'dam

Paint say: So just like Earth. the moon has its own gravitational field - pulling objects towards it and, at the same time, keeping them on the surface.

Due to the fact that the moon is drastically smaller than Earth, its gravity is far less strong, allowing astronauts to feel lighter, jump higher etc. I heard one man describe it as being submerged underwater, all though I'm not sure how I feel about that description.

CarolOklaNola say: THERE IS GRAVITY IN SPACE.It was the Soviets, NOT the Chinese. and the reason you did not pay attention is YOU WERE NOT BORN

YES. The MOON HAS GRAVITY., but since the Moon has LESS MASS than than the Earth does, Things WEIGH LESS ON THE MOON THAN THEY DO ON EARTH., ANYTHING that has mass has gravity. INCLUDING YOU. The Earth's's or the Moon's mass is just so overwhelmingly HUGE compared to the mass of any human being, including hum an beings in full space suits with all equipment. That no on e goes flying of Earth's or the Moon's surgace when they walk on it. THERE IS GRAVITY IN SPACE.


When you INTENTION ALLY start off with FALSE PREMISE ITO PROVOKE people into answering, DO N OT be surprised of you get some RUDE answers because of your BE(NG CONTRADICTORY AND INTENTIONALLY RUDE. There IS a difference between ignorance and stupidity, but PLAYING LIKE you are stupid is RUDE AN D INSULTING.

Things on the Moon weigh 1/6 of what they weigh on Earth. Mass and wight are NOT the same thing,.

Choose a bloody best answer. It's not hard. say: After those first excellent answers, I just have to ask, why do you think Earth has gravity but the moon doesn't?
