Lmao
There will always be night time, as far as the sun exists

It will just be total darkness without the moon reflecting the rays of the sun

Also, there's no soon there, 8 inches per year is not really a significant number

A time will come that finally this will happen:

Matthew 24:29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the SUN be darkened, and the MOON shall not give her light, and the STARS shall fall from HEAVEN, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:

Revelation 21:1 And I saw a NEW HEAVEN and a NEW EARTH: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was NO MORE SEA

Terrifying shocked shocked shocked

Soon there would be no night time, only daytime. Be scared people....
nothing to fear, from the look of things, it will take millions of years to finally drift out.
Technology by then would have evolved to recapture the moon, just few hundred years ago, man couldn't leave the earth atmosphere but today we could not just leave but communicate with people on the moon

My only fear is global warming.

I no fit go Saturn cos them say that one Ring sef fon de fall.

Na Jupiter sure pass.
Jupiter is a giant ball of gas with no solid surface like the earth, it's impossible to land on Jupiter as one will simply sink into the gases that makes it up.

them dey teach person gamble? grin...anyway it is football betting where you bet on outcome of games..Lt is bit easier if you watch football games as it enables you know the strength of teams.
Like myself, I bet responsibly I have the app on my phone I bet from their o don't need to go to s betting shop to place my bet.
And I stake 100 naira mostly, I don't stake huge amount as it is dangerous to do so.

Honestly,you should not be teaching anyone sport Betting.
They will never forgive you ,on the long run, especially when they become addicted,which is very easy.

That you don't like what you heard doesn't mean it's nonsense. It's a fact that the universe is still expanding. And as it is expanding, planets, objects are moving away from each other. It's also a fact that our star, the sun is burning away. Eventually, it will burn out its energy source which is helium and die out, but that's is many millions of years away.
The reason the moon is moving away is not because the universe is expanding.
The moon is moving away because of the force of interaction between the moon and earth’s oceans.

Because I understand basic science, I did and understood basic physics and geography in school. Hence I was able to fathom that the moon is responsible for the ocean tides and the force generated from this interaction creates a kinetic energy for the moon in the opposite direction.

It didn’t just stop there, there are thousands of experiments to demonstrate this and show the evidence.

Abeg explain...no insult me o
Because I been Dey think say without the moon, nights go Dey darker

You are right Bro. What causes the nights is the earths rotation round the sun. When a particular point on the earth rotates away from the sun, the earth casts a shadow on that point thereby obscuring the light from the sun, that is night. The moon (depending on it's own position at the time) now provides some brightness to that dark point. So you are right.

The moon is only a light in the night, simply means we would only have darker night clouds as it is some days as usual

I knew daft people will come to ruin this thread, I suggest a simple IQ test should be conducted for people to comment on science related threads.

Seun, create a simple IQ test, and anyone that does not pass minimum requirement should be disallowed from commenting on science related threads.

Majority are daft in this part of the world, fools are irritating

You can’t land on Jupiter, dude is made of just gas. Aside that, that’s like the worst place for anything to live, it’s better to even go away with the moon cheesy

The moon is not a light, the moon reflects the light from the sun in the night. Sun is the only source of light in our solar system
