Why is the distance between the Earth and the Moon getting bigger and bigger?

The tidal force of the moon and the sun on the earth causes the tides of the earth's seawater, like a small "brake pad", and its long-term effect is to slow down the earth's rotation slowly. The second is to move the Moon away from the Earth at a rate of 3 centimeters per year. So, in ancient times, the moon was much closer to the earth than it is today, and its influence was much greater.

Tides have had many important effects on the Earth due to the gravitational pull of the Moon on Earth that triggers tidal action on Earth. As the Earth rotates, the sea water rushes to the uplifted part, and the water level in other parts of the ocean becomes shallow. As a result, there is a huge friction between the sea and the land due to the relative motion.

As a result, seawater washes over a large area of the seabed during each high and low tide. The above frictional phenomenon is very similar to the frictional motion in the braking device of an automobile. The rotation of the Earth is sometimes stopped by tidal activity, just as the Earth has undergone a "brake".

However, the Earth's inertia is quite enormous, so this "braking" effect has little effect on its motion. In fact, the end result of tidal action is that the Earth's rotation slows down, making the day grow by 1 second every 62,500 years, and as the day lengthens, the Moon moves away from the Earth and will rotate around the Earth with a larger revolution radius.

Due to the action of tides, the rotation of the earth is slowing down, and through traction, the rotation energy of the earth is "stolen" by the moon little by little, and the energy of the moon increases, and there is a tendency to break away from the gravitational pull of the earth and the moon. But this is extremely subtle, and it is estimated that it will take hundreds of millions of years before it is noticed.

The moon likes to be alone, it doesn't like hustle and bustle!

Because the universe is expanding every day.

1Does the Earth's surface brighten up at night? Yes, but on a moonlit night.

The reason for this is that the moon reflects more sunlight to Earth.

2Does it affect the length of day and night?

Yes. The reason is (

The gravitational force increases, which increases the gravitational force, which slows down the Earth's self-rotation. The rotation of the Earth has been slowing down because of the tides, and the main cause of the tides is the Moon).

Does 3 have an impact on the length of the year? No.

The reason is that (the length of a year is the time it takes for the Earth to revolve around the Sun, and it has nothing to do with the Moon).

The rotation of the earth and the rotation of the moon around the earth make the earth and the moon in a kind of dynamic equilibrium, and the stability of the earth's climate, all animals and plants can grow in a relatively stable climate, all thanks to the moon. So what happens if the moon is closer to the Earth?
