I wonder if I will share this article or not, as I am not a space expert or astrophysicist, although some have called me crazy. However, the moment I returned, the curiosity hit me hard and I went to look for some data - I found it! Therefore, in the wake of the Vocal "(Un) General Information" challenge, this is my commitment. (Description: I certainly did not name the following! It is an important and remarkable science for those in the field. However, many cultural people I have met ignore this.)

The question in my new mind at the time was: Is it right (but can anyone explain that) to ensure that the "moon orbits the Earth"?

That said, we all realize that our favorite satellite is always orbiting our planet. Therefore, the correct answer should not be considered. Really, believe it or not!

Similarly, it is widely known that the correction of this gravitational force. The earth is very large and has the power to pull down the moon, and later to keep it close to eternity.

In any case, gravity is two things in the body, right? And remember that the moon is much smaller than the Earth, and much larger (27% of the earth's mass, according to sources such as Space.com). Most people see that they are facing our waves, for example. Likewise, since the ocean is very heavy (not one year old), it makes sense to accept that the gravitational force expected to move it is important.

In line with these lines, in a way, individuals understand that the moon has a gravitational relationship with the forces of the Earth. I think I just thought: Well, why don't these two bodies move?

Also, that is when most people stop accepting the researcher's thinking process. Many justify the investigation, saying: "Of course, the earth is usually very large, so the moon is all around us. The end of the matter. In the meantime, please get me poisoned."

Of course, in a situation where you look forward, it is not. The fact that the Earth is so large does not mean that these two circles are not influenced by either of these gravitational forces.

Introducing the Barycenters

Things are still the same, to say that the moon orbits the Earth is almost certainly true in the middle. What really happens is that the moon and the Earth rotate around the point of gravity between the two bodies.

At the moment, the following may not be 100% straight, anywhere: Imagine if the Earth and the moon were sitting on a very large screen (that wasn't exactly the normal state of the earth's atmosphere when things were normal), and you would need a saw with the same size. In these lines, you needed to place the center point somewhere on the board.

Set # 1: Obviously, you couldn't put that point on the board like a regular saw. The floor is heavy and can be like the seat of adults on one side while the child is sitting on the other side.

Position # 1: The world is winning.

Setup # 2: But you couldn't put it underground in the middle of the fact that the moon would conquer it. Such a position is obviously incomplete when viewed in this light, yet this is the number of people who think of the gravitational pull of the Earth-moon when they say the moon is "orbiting the earth." Such statements (actually, without a doubt) neglect to deal with the power of the moon:

Set # 2: Monthly Winning.

Design # 3: All you need to do is place it between the two bodies and follow it in the middle. Moreover, in this case, it would be inside the Earth still, but not in an area centered on Earth. Indeed, it would be about 75% outside the center, around the moon, for example,

Set # 3: Balance.

So the advantage of this is that it is a sign when two bodies are next to each other. In line with these lines, the moon is not just "orbiting the earth." Instead, the moon and the earth revolve around these gravitational forces, known as the Barycenter. Wikipedia has a GIF that shows the similarities:

In the meantime, will you be able to go to a bar and make beer for your friends and rely on the fact that the moon is just around the Earth? Indeed, that would be a very short thing. I see that it will depend on how one defines the concept of "circling." But with the fact that you are probably right, I think a little drinking can come to you because of this good information.

I hope I have gained much of that information. If you think you need to continue with this, the Wikipedia Barycenters page is a good start.
