#earths moon

Never knew this ship existed but I kinda fuck with it 👌

[fanfic-borednsuggestions]

solarballs fanfic; Luna being an protective big brother to earth.

some ideas involving this concept:

Human Au where after the death of there parents Luna is working hard to support his younger extremely ill brother, Terra.

Earth has a date and Luna can’t help but worry.

Luna not forgiving some of the moons (Ganymede and Europa, can also include Titan) for almost destroying earth.

Luna putting earth on suicide watch and not letting him out of his sight.

Luna taking care of the earth after the Asteroid killed the dinosaurs.

another fanfic idea is Earth and Luna introducing the planted moons to earths second moon(quasi Moon) cruithne.

I know you normaly do ship requests but i'd like to ask if you could do size accurate major moons? :3 Like accurate to the sizes they are in real life

I CAN DO YA BETTER- All the moons of the solar system (includin the galilean moons ofc.. im a sucker for the gang uvu")

I thought about adding Phobos and Deimos to this and I was like "no way, they're specks of dots" but a friend of mine (who never watched Solarballs) convinced me to add them so I did uvu"

as for their human sizes (if you're wondering about that) THAT i may work on it in the future)

Here’s a lunar panorama taken from Earth featuring the large craters Langrenus, toward the left, and Petavius, toward the right. The craters formed in separate impacts, with Langrenus being the smaller of the two. The best time to see them is a few days after a new Moon. This image is a composite of the best of thousands of high-resolution, infrared, video images taken through a small telescope. Although mountains on Earth will likely erode into soil over a billion years, lunar craters Langrenus and Petavius will likely survive many billions more years, possibly until the Sun expands and engulfs both the Earth and Moon.

China's cotton seeds sprout on Moon

The seeds, inside a sealed container, are the first plants ever grown on the Moon's surface.

China plans to grow potatoes like Matt Damon did in The Martian. NASA has a Earth based "Potatoes on Mars" experiment.

What  this means:

"It suggests that there might not be insurmountable problems for astronauts in future trying to grow their own crops on the moon in a controlled environment."

"I think there's certainly a great deal of interest in using the Moon as staging post, particularly for flights to Mars, because it's relatively near the Earth," 

- Fred Watson, Australian Astronomical Observatory 

Plants have been grown on the International Space Station before but never on the Moon.

The Chinese Moon lander was carrying among its cargo soil containing cotton and potato seeds, yeast and fruit fly eggs.

“The lunar mini biosphere experiment on the Chang'e-4 lander is designed to test photosynthesis and respiration - processes in living organisms that result in the production of energy.”

The whole experiment is contained within an 18cm tall, 3kg canister that was designed by 28 Chinese universities.

The organisms inside have a supply of air, water and nutrients to help them grow. But one of the challenges, say Chinese scientists, is to keep the temperature favourable for growth when conditions on the Moon swing wildly between -173C and 100C or more.

First of all, absolutely love your art and you’ve converted me trillistio agenda. If you’re still accepting requests can I ask for one of Luna just being happy? Let him chill for once

He's just chilling!! :') Jus snoozing and catching some Z's!

(And thank you sm!! I’m happy I have opened your third eye uvu)
