The moon travels around earth in an oval orbit at 3680 kilometres per hour. The moon does not have an  atmosphere. Temperature is a constant-184 degree celsius during its night to 214 degrees celsius. The moon is actually a little lopsided. The light areas are highlands. The dark areas are composed of basalt. When you look at the moon you will see light and dark areas.                                             Rosalili
