How did we land back on earth from the moon

988 viewsOtherPlanetary Science

Wouldn’t when we land on the moon, the earth would still be in motion bc of the orbit, and so whenever we exit the orbit of the moon (Which was orbiting the earth) the earth would still be in a constant orbit moving at high speeds, how did we calculate and intercept earth in said orbit.

The earth and the moon are taking the same orbit around the sun, so there is not as much difference in speed as you’re thinking.
