The Moon Is Slowly Leaving Earth… And It Changes Everything
The Moon is slowly moving away from Earth — about 3.8 cm every year. It doesn’t sound like much, but over millions of years, it changes everything. The Moon controls our tides, stabilises Earth’s tilt, and helps regulate our climate. Without it, our planet would be a very different place. So what happens as it drifts further away? And what would Earth look like without the Moon at all?

Artemis II will send astronauts around the Moon for the first time in over 50 years — but they won’t land. This mission is a critical test before humans return to the lunar surface, pushing deep-space travel systems further than they’ve gone in decades. It’s not about stepping onto the Moon yet… It’s about proving we can get there safely again.
