What do think would be different if we had no moon?

There'd be smaller tides due to solar gravity alone. The solar effect is about a third of the lunar effect, if I remember Astronomy 101 correctly.

The moon slows the speed of rotation of the earth. The earth used to spin at 18hrs, rather then 24.

The moon acts as a climate regulator. If it weren’t there, the earth would not keep an even keel, causing major climate changes. The polar caps would change constantly.

Without the impact that caused the moon to emerge, the earth would be under water (mostly) and their would likely be a completely different atmosphere.

Primitive reproduction cycles would be different.

When we pulled our pants down in front of ppl and showed them our rear end, it wouldn't be called mooning ppl. I wonder what we would call it…..

Then Canadians will have more time to diss their neighbours to the south rather than talk about the moon.

Would you rather look at the mirror first before talking about your neighbours - eh Canadians

If primitive man would be so different, then we wouldn't have to deal with people such as Canadian Observer

RE: What do think would b

I think tidal wave power plants would be less effective without the moon. Point Peele at lake eeire is also heard to be reshaped by the moon. Oh yeah, and I can't just leave without saying something else other wise it just wouldn't be giraldi right?
here goes:
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Actually, Canada would be safer without the moon. I wouldn't feel safe in canada in a full moon. Canadians "change" in a full moon, if you know what I mean. I think the moon is what is affecting the tourism industry.

I saw a Canadian in a full moon before and I think he looks like this:

We'd have to come up with a new term for "mooning" !! "Staring" just doesn't sound right.
