Will the Earth ever lose its Moon?

We investigate several mysteries of the Moon, with some expert help.

Gazing up at the moon has always sparked human curiosity. It's certainly inspired CrowdScience listeners, who have sent us a host of questions about it.

Are the Moon and Earth equally battered by meteors? Could the Moon ever escape Earth鈥檚 gravity? And what would Earth be like without a moon - or with two or more of them?

In this special lunar-themed episode we enlist the help of astronomers to contemplate your Moon mysteries.
