What is Mass of Moon and Mass of Sun
When was this discovered
Answers
sun mass;1.989 × 10^30 kg
The mass of the Moon is approximately 8.1 x 10^19
On July 19, 1969 the Apollo-11 Command Service Module and LEM entered lunar orbit. The orbit period was 2.0 hours, at a distance of 1,737 km from the lunar center. Believe it or not, you can use these two pieces of information to determine the mass of the moon.
In the late 1600s, Newton computed the relative masses of the sun and other planets. His calculations were mostly correct, although his values for Earth's relative weight were off. He found the sun to be 169,282 times more massive than Earth, whereas the accurate value is 331,950.
Answer:
Good evening
Explanation:
Mass of moon (1024 kg) 0.07346
Baylor scientists discovered the mass by analyzing data taken from spacecraft used during NASA's Gravity Recovery and Interior Laboratory (GRAIL) mission. The GRAIL mission was a lunar gravity mapping exploration that used two spaceships to study the moon's interior and thermal history.

The first known estimate of the solar mass was by Isaac Newton. In his work Principia (1687), he estimated that the ratio of the mass of Earth to the Sun was about 1⁄28700. Later he determined that his value was based upon a faulty value for the solar parallax, which he had used to estimate the distance to the Sun.
