Summary:
- The article discusses the latest research on the Moon's orbit, which is gradually moving away from the Earth over time.
- Measurements show that the Moon is currently moving about 3.8 centimeters (1.5 inches) away from the Earth each year, a process that has been ongoing for billions of years.
- This gradual increase in the distance between the Earth and Moon has important implications for understanding the evolution of the Earth-Moon system and the long-term stability of the solar system.
