摘　　要：Finding the cause of the Moon leaving the Earth is the first key to open the door of cosmic galaxies.Although some people believe the cause of the Moon leaving the Earth to be the tidal bulges on the Earth exerting a gravitational pull on the Moon,which tries to “speed up” the Moon,yet careful research shows this view is doubtful.Thus the author has studied the real causes for the Moon moving away from the Earth again,and found that the migration of the Moon away from the Earth is mainly due to the impacts of prograde planetsimals and the contraction of the growing Earth.Other satellites leaving their parent planets for the same reason.
