“For the moon never beams
without giving me dreams”
~ Edgar Allen Poe
(Annabel Lee)
“The Moon is unique in that it is the only spherical satellite orbiting a terrestrial planet. … Another distinct property the Moon possesses lies in its size compared to the Earth. At 3,475 km, the Moon’s diameter is over one fourth that of the Earth’s. In relation to its own size, no other planet has a moon as large.” (theplanets.org)
