Gravitation of the Moon. The acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the Moon is approximately 1.625 m/s 2, about 16.6% that on Earth's surface or 0.166 ɡ. [ 1] Over the entire surface, the variation in gravitational acceleration is about 0.0253 m/s 2 (1.6% of the acceleration due to gravity). Because weight is directly dependent upon ...
The gravitational redshift of a light wave as it moves upwards against a gravitational field (produced by the yellow star below). The effect is greatly exaggerated in this diagram. In physics and general relativity, gravitational redshift (known as Einstein shift in older literature) [ 1][ 2] is the phenomenon that electromagnetic waves or ...

Titan is one of seven gravitationally rounded moons of Saturn and the second-most distant among them. Frequently described as a planet-like moon, Titan is 50% larger in diameter than Earth's Moon and 80% more massive. It is the second-largest moon in the Solar System after Jupiter's Ganymede and is larger than Mercury; yet Titan is only 40% as ...
The name moonstone derives from the stone's characteristic visual effect, called adularescence (or schiller), which produces a milky, bluish interior light. This effect is caused by light diffraction through alternating layers of orthoclase and albite within the stone. The diffracted light varies from white to blue, depending on the thinness of ...
