Ok well when it is early in the morn or late in the afternoon sometimes I go somewhere in a car and the moon follows me? EVERYBODY?If I am correct the moon is not suppost to follow you!
oh and plz andwer some of my other questions
 
The moon follows YOU? I was absolutely cerain that it was ME it was following. I know for sure it was, because I went all the way to Australia last month, and there it was! It had followed me all the wasy down under. So, I think you will find that you are mistaken!
 
The moon is only looks like it is following you because the earth is spinning, and anything near its atmosphere (e.g. the moon) will be turning with the earth, which makes it look like its following.
 
The moon doesn't follow you. Its just the diffrent angles and turns in the road that make it look like its in diffrent positions in the sky.
 
The moon stays in the same position, and it may appear to "follow" you, because it dosn't really move that much. You're not special, the moon follows everybody. It's a busy moon.
 
The moon is, on average, about 384,000 km away from you. Your motion on the earth, whether it is a few meters, or even several kilometers, will not change the moons position in your sky very much.

Think about it this way.

When you are driving in a car, and look out the window, the nearby trees seem to zip by you very fast. More distant lightposts zip by more slowly. And the mountain range far off in the distance hardly seems to move at all over the course of a couple of minutes. Now, the moon, being much, much more distant than any of these objects, is not going to change its position very much relative to you, as the change in angle is completely negligible.
 
It's called the sky, you can see the moon at night from almost anywhere in the world.
 
That's some crazy sh*t. What did you do to it? Better yet, what are you up to that it's following you like that?
 
the moon is far, far way from us. it only looks like it's following you. it's really just hanging out up there in the sky.
 
The moon doesn't follow you. Its you eyes using the moon for a point of reference. Just like when you see the sun, its not moving across the sky, its the earth rotating
