Assuming that the distance from you to the sun is about 400 times the distance from you to the Moon,
a)find the ratio of the sun's diameter to the Moon's diameter.
b) What is the ratio of the sun's volume to the moon's volume?
c)Position a small coin in your view so that it just eclipses the full moon, and measue the angle it subtends at the eye. From this and the Earth- Moon distance(= 3.8*10^5 km), find the moo's diameter.

I even have a very powerful telescope. I cannot see the footprints from the astronauts, the American flag that was left, nor any debris.. In all pics from the hubble none of the above can be observed. We did land on the LIGHT side of the moon. We can see rocks on mars- how many millions of miles away???? The moon is only 250,000 miles away.... Why. No evidence exists we actually were there? I guess the man in the moon hid all of the evidence we were ever on the moon. Perhaps he put it in the storage room at MGM studios.

In the beginning, there was a big bang....where did it come from? How does nothing come from absolutely nothing? And if the world always existed, shouldn't there have been enough time for the world to be perfect by now? I mean, time would be infinite then. Where did DNA come from? How did the first micro-organisms appear? Pure nitrogen, oxygen, and carbon dioxide from the beginning can't possibly create life on its own. How is it possible that the world can even exist right now? I want a scientific explanation for this.
