Why does the Moon follow people, and why does the Moon follow people?

At night, when we walk on the road, under the bright moonlight, we will see that the moon seems to follow us, we stop, the moon does not move, it seems that the moon is following people.

In fact, the moon does not follow people. One of the reasons why we have this illusion is that the moon is the closest planet to the earth in space, and the distance between the moon and the earth is about 380,000 kilometers. When we walk a hundred meters or tens of kilometers on the earth, it is almost the same as not moving for the moon hundreds of thousands of kilometers away.

So when we look up at the moon, because the distance and angle between it and people have not changed, we will feel that the moon has been following people. At the same time, there is nothing around the moon that can block its light, not that it follows us, but that we can't get out of its range wherever we go, just like Sun Wukong can't escape from the palm of the Buddha's hand. The second is the illusion of relative motion.

When we look at the trees on the side of the road as we walk, the angle between the line of sight and the trees changes a lot, so we know that people are moving and trees are not moving. When we look at the moon, because the moon is very far away from us, no matter how fast we run, the angle change between our vision and the moon is too small to be felt by the naked eye, so we always feel that the moon is following people, just like sitting on a moving train, we will feel the trees and fields on both sides moving, in fact, this is just a train moving.

The moon follows people, not the moon walks, but we people walk.

The moon does not follow people, and we have this feeling: first, because the moon is a huge celestial body, far away from us, and there is nothing around us that can block its brilliance, not that it follows us, but that we can't go anywhere within its range. The second is the illusion of relative motion.

For example, if you sit on a moving train, you will feel that the trees and fields on both sides are moving, but in fact, it is just the train moving. The moon follows people in the same way, it's not the moon that walks, it's that we are walking, but the distance people walk is simply too small compared to the earth and the moon. At the same time, the distance of the Moon from the Earth is 380,000 kilometers.

When people look up at the bright moon in the sky, it is in a certain position, when people move, they move the distance, but for the earth this distance is completely negligible, and for the moon the change of perspective is also completely negligible, which is that walking almost does not change the relative position between you and the moon, it looks like the moon is following people.

Copied from the children's web.

The moon does not follow people, the distance between the moon and the earth is 380,000 kilometers, and the distance traveled by people is simply too small compared to the earth and the moon, and it looks like the moon is following people.

Feel it yourself! Or maybe the reference is different!

Maybe you should get closer to the moon and check it out. ·

It is an illusion that the moon is following us, because the moon is relatively far away from us, so it looks as if he is following you in the sky.

In the case you said, the moon follows people, which is a wrong feeling, in fact, the moon is there, it doesn't move or go, but the range you walk is relatively small, so it feels like the moon is following you.

The moon didn't follow you, but the moon was too far away from you, and even though you traveled a long distance, the angle between the moon and you barely changed from before.

So produce the illusion of the moon and you walking.

It's not that the moon will follow people, it's that the reference is different, so there will be such a feeling.

A person feels that the moon is walking with him, because the moon is very far away from people, moving a distance on the earth, and the angle of the moon is basically the same, so it feels like the moon is walking with him.

If you have been on a train or a car, you will see a near object passing by in a flash, and the distant object will move slowly, and the farther away it is, the slower it becomes, which is the same as saying that the moon walks with people.

This is due to the visual properties of the person. The field of vision of the human eye has a certain range, when people are moving, the things near them disappear in the field of vision for a while, and the things that are farther away than the banquet are smaller in the field of vision, and they disappear more slowly. The moon is too far away from us to disappear from my rulers' field of vision, so whenever we see it, it seems to follow us.

It's the same that the moon follows people, but we can't get out of its range wherever we go, it's not that the moon is walking, and we have this feeling that the moon won't go with people. For example, if you sit on a moving train and move a distance, it looks like the moon is following you.

If you copy it from the children's Internet, you will feel that the trees on both sides are because the moon is a huge celestial body. When people look up at the bright moon in the sky, it is not it that follows us. At the same time, the distance between the moon and the earth is 380,000 kilometers, but the distance that people walk is simply too small compared to the earth and the moon, but we are walking, it is in a certain position, and the change of perspective for the moon is completely negligible

One, the fields are moving, which means that walking hardly changes the relative position between you and the moon, but for the earth this distance is completely negligible, in fact, it is just a train moving. The second is the illusion of relative motion.
