About Moon
The Moon is the only natural satellite of Earth. It orbits around Earth at an average distance of 384,399 kilometres (238,854 mi), a distance roughly 30 times the width of Earth. It completes an orbit in relation to Earth and the Sun (synodically) every 29.5 days. The Moon and Earth are bound by gravitational attraction, which is stronger on the sides facing each other. The resulting tidal forces are the main driver of Earth's tides, and have pulled the Moon to always face Earth with the same near side. This tidal locking effectively synchronizes the Moon's rotation period to its orbital period.

Elm Farm Olly, also known as the Sky Queen, was the first cow to fly in an aeroplane. The Sky Queen was the first... She struggled with landing, but for a while she was at the controls. That's how I got over the moon, right? So she was the first cow to fly in an aeroplane. It was in 1930 at the International Air Exposition in Missouri. A man called Ellsworth Bunce became the first man to milk a cow mid-flight, which he did in that flight.

I'm surprised nobody, brackets Dan, didn't mention that Buzz Aldrin, a Texas Freemason, established a Masonic lodge on the moon called Tranquility Lodge, number 2000 under the Grand Lodge of Texas, who now claim Masonic jurisdiction to the moon. According to their official website, meetings are held quarterly in various cities around Texas until such time as the lodge may hold its meetings on the moon itself. Can I just say, I did randomly select these things out of the pile.
