Welcome to the amazing solar system! Today, we’re going on an exciting adventure to visit the moon. Are you ready to join us? Let’s learn all about the moon, which is a special friend of Earth called a satellite. It travels around our planet, and we can see it in the sky in different shapes, called phases. Hold on tight; we’re heading to the moon!
Here we are on the moon! Did you know that the moon is the only natural satellite of Earth? We always see the same side of the moon because it spins around itself at the same speed as it travels around Earth. The moon’s surface is covered with lots of craters, which are holes made by space rocks crashing into it.
Hello, Earthling! Welcome to the moon. Even though no life has been found here, the moon plays a big role in life on Earth. It helps create tides, which are the rise and fall of the sea levels. Without the moon, the sea would be very different!
The moon is full of interesting minerals, like alumina, which can be used to make oxygen. It’s the only place outside Earth where humans have visited. The first person to walk on the moon was Neil Armstrong during the Apollo 11 mission in 1969. The moon is 384,400 kilometers away from Earth. That’s pretty far, isn’t it? You could fit all the planets in our solar system between Earth and the moon!
Every year, the moon moves a little bit further away from Earth. There’s less gravity on the moon than on Earth, so you have to jump to walk around. It’s like bouncing on a trampoline!
Did you enjoy our quick trip to the moon? Now you can share all the cool facts you’ve learned with your friends. Have a safe journey back to Earth!
Wow, what an adventure! We’ve discovered so much about the moon. If you want to keep learning and exploring, make sure to check out more fun adventures with us!
Moon Phases Diary: For one month, keep a moon diary. Each night, look at the moon and draw what you see. Is it a full moon, a crescent, or something in between? Try to learn the names of the different phases. At the end of the month, compare your drawings and see how the moon changes over time.
Create Your Own Craters: Gather some flour, cocoa powder, and small rocks. Spread the flour in a tray and sprinkle cocoa powder on top. Drop the rocks from different heights to see how craters form. Discuss why some craters are bigger than others and how this relates to the moon’s surface.
Jump Like You’re on the Moon: Find a safe place to jump, like a trampoline or a soft mat. Try jumping as high as you can and imagine how much higher you could jump on the moon, where gravity is weaker. Talk about how astronauts move differently on the moon compared to Earth.
Sure! Here’s a sanitized version of the transcript:

[Music] Welcome to the solar system! Today, we’re on a trip to the moon. [Music] You are looking at the solar system, and we are going to take a look at the moon. Do you want to come along? The moon is the satellite that orbits around the Earth, and we can see it in the sky depending on its phases. Grab on; we’re headed that way!
We are now on the moon, the only natural satellite that belongs to the planet Earth. We always see the same side of the moon because it takes the same amount of time to rotate around itself as it does to orbit the Earth. On the moon, there are a lot of craters made from meteor showers that crash against the surface.
Hello, Earthling! I welcome you to the moon. Life has never been found here, but we know that the force of its gravity allows for life on Earth. It is responsible for the tides that occur on Earth, and without it, the sea level would rise along the coasts.
On the moon, we can find a lot of minerals, for example, alumina, from which we can get oxygen. The moon is the only place outside of Earth that humans have visited. The first person on the moon was Neil Armstrong during the Apollo 11 mission in 1969. The distance between the moon and the Earth is 384,400 kilometers. It’s not that close, is it? Did you know that we can fit all the planets between them?
Every year, the moon gets a little bit further away from the Earth. There is less gravity on the moon than on Earth, and because of this difference, you have to jump to walk like this.
Did you enjoy this quick trip around the moon? Now you can go back to share all the information that you’ve learned. Have a good trip!
Wow, what a journey! We have learned so many things about this satellite. Do you want to keep learning? Click on the seal and subscribe to the Smile and Learn channel to stay updated with all our new adventures!
