The Moon is earths only natural satellite,  it is the fifth largest satellite in the Solar System.  It is the largest natural [[File:3.1_Moon.jpg|thumb]]satellite of the planet in the Solar System relative to the size of its planet, having the  diameter of Earth and 1/81 its mass.  The moon is the second densest satellite after Io.  It is in synchronous rotation with Earth, always showing the same face; the near side is marked with dark volcanic maria among the bright ancient crustal highlands and prominent impact craters.  It is the brightest object in the sky after the Sun,  although its surface is actually very dark, with a similar reflectance to coal.  Its prominence in the sky and its regular cycle of phases have, since ancient times, made the Moon an important cultural influence on language, calendars, art and mythology.  The gravitational influnece produces the ocean tides and the minute lengthening of the day.  The Moon's current orbital distance, about thirty times the diamenter of the Earth, causes it to appear it to cover the Sun nearly precisely in total solar eclipses.
