I know why: the gravity pulls it in, but the question is: How does it create locamotion?

Maybe it's a silly question everyone knows the answer to...but I really want to know, hehe

oh and if we can see it here when the sun is still up, does it mean that on the other side of the world they can't see the moon at all? at night?

I know that one of our planets travels on a course that doesn't fall into the same plain as the others. Could every planet travel in a different plain? Why or why not?

I ask this question seriously. I am a big fan of the now departed Carl Sagan but wonder if his 'noble' view of possible spacefaring extraterrestrials was a bit too hopeful. Certainly, I hope we can someday develop interstellar travel and visit Earth-like worlds - in large part, because we may need to live there - meaning - we as humans would plan to invade. What is your opinion????

If so: When? Are there ways (or machines) to increase the amount of gravity (however slightly) so that it would be more conducive to Earthling inhabitants?

Hypothetically, if it were inhabited, what sort of post-terraforming problems could you foresee?

I have a Jason Explorer Model 307 telescope but I do not have a manual and it is missing the eyepieces and lenses that came with it. I have tried Bushnell but have not gotten very far. Does anyone know where I can get the manual and a set of the eyepieces?

I'm taking Astronomy right now, but my teacher's doing an awful job at teaching it. I'm doing a project on Antimatter, but I'm having trouble understanding some of these concepts. From my research, I know what CP-transformation/operation is, and that CP-Violation explains the Matter/Antimatter Asymmetry, but why does it happen? (And how?)
