How much does the moon weigh?
Could it be pulled to a different orbit?

It is in space, thus weightless.

Superman could move it. Piccolo blew it up once. Couple billion tons at most.

You have to focus more on mass than weight, you're in a no gravity situation after all...
There is nothing quite as compelling as a bad idea whose time has come...

Well, Wensleydale has a density of about 1.07g/cm3.

So if we can find some dimensions of the moon we can figure out how much it weighs. Unless of course its made of cheddar, then fuck knows.

The moon is weightless because there is no gravity in space.

How much does the moon weigh?

Could it be pulled to a different orbit?
 Quoting: Moontard 1992391


It has no weight....it would be measured by mass.
Use the mass to calculate the force required based on the gravitational pull of the Earth.


The mass of the moon is about 7.3459x10^22 kg.
The orbital speed of the moon is 1020 m/s.
The amount of Kinetic Energy it would take to alter the moons orbit would be calculated with the Kinetic Energy formula KE = (1/2)(m)(v2).

So, 0.5 x 7.3459x10^22 x 1020^2 = 3.803x10^28 Joules required.


Translated to "GLP tard".....a FARKING LOT of energy is required.

weight is relative to the attractor, usually the providing planet dominates that.

if it weighs nothing, then you should be able to balance it on your finger

The specific gravity of the moon is 3.3

Water has a specific gravity of one.

the moon will not float on water!

If a powerful ion engine with a reasonable fuel supply was optimally placed using solar power and turned on and off at the correct time, eventually, after a few million years, it might nudge the moon out of orbit.
