I’ll tell you why that surprises me.
You see- my latest thinking on Gravity is that Helium and Hydrogen will escape from all planets beneath a certain size- that size where incoming PUSH of gravitational force equals outgoing PUSH of gravitational force.
The Earth and the Moon are too small to attract Helium and Hydrogen.

(for a completely wrong reason, but still...)

Yes, the earth and moon are too small for their gravity to hold
onto hydrogen and helium. To see why, compare the average speed of
their atoms at a typical temperature to the escape velocity.

JFYI: There is nothing correct about this.  Both atmospheres do contain
helium and hydrogen.

I said 'hold onto'. There is a very thin transient atmosphere, which exists
only because it is constantly replenished. The "atmosphere" of the Moon
is considered to be an excellent vacuum on Earth.

AVERAGE.  The speeds of molecules in a gas are not single valued. Enough
H and He atoms exceed escape velocity that they do escape and are lost.

Cite evidence.

Non sequitur.  The fact that there are few such molecules to begin with has
nothing to do with how many of those that are there escape.  See below.

I know.  Learn to read.

“Enough” is a weasel word.

The data shows what the theory predicts: *most* hydrogen _molecules_ and
helium _atoms_ that are there are NOT lost (this way), because their speeds
are *lower* than the escape velocity where they are.

Because of the dependency on surface temperature, the atmosphere should be
more tenuous during the day than the night.  I wonder if this has been
investigated during the Apollo program, or will be investigated by Chang'e-4
which just landed on the far side (which has day and night, too).

They only have to exceed escape velocity ONCE. Then they are lost. If 99.9%
of the gas molecules never exceed escape velocity during a given day, it means
that 0.1% do and (barring collisions on the way out) the atmosphere decreases
by 0.1% per day.  That is why the moon's "atmosphere" would be a hard vacuum
on earth, fewer than a million molecules per cc, and what's there is transient
from outgassing or solar wind.  Earth is not the core of a gas giant for the
same reason, helium and (free) hydrogen atoms/molecules frequently exceed
escape velocity and are lost forever.

An interesting idea. It would depend on how long the average lifetime of
gas molecules is, compared to a lunar day.

I do not think so.  Luna can catch up with them later as she is moving in
her orbit, too, at ≈ 1.20 km/s.  Their escape velocities on the surface
would be ≈ 2.376 km/s, but no direction is implied.  And escape velocities
at higher altitudes would be less than that.

But you can theorize all you want; it is a *fact* that Luna does have a
thin, tenuous atmosphere that contains also hydrogen and helium.

Complete nonsense.

It should be interesting to look at or make a black-body temperature model
of Luna as if it were receiving radiation only by Sol, considering its
albedo and the fact that the intensity of emitted infrared radiation obeys
the inverse square law.

It can be expected that the atmospheric temperature farther away from the
surface is less than on the surface (I do not see how there can be an
inversion there), and it should be interesting to see how the average speeds
of gas molecules as given by the Maxwell–Boltzmann velocity distribution
then relate to the escape velocities where they are.

The escape velocity is relative to the moon, and by definition, the moon cannot

Umm, you think Earth *is* the core of a gas giant?
You do realize what the solar abundance of H and He are compared to O and Si,
Jupiter is believed to be close to the solar abundance.
Where is all of Earth's hydrogen and helium? Sure Earth has a lot of H in water,
where is the rest? Why does Jupiter get to keep all the H and He but
Earth doesn't?

Interesting. I plugged in the diameter of He, a temp of 300K and the pressure
on the moon's surface (0.3 nPa = 3*10^-13 kPa) into the mean free path
calculator at http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/Kinetic/menfre.html
and got a mean free path distance of 324*10^6 meters, almost 100 times the
diameter of the moon! (Mean free path is the average distance a gas molecule moves
before colliding with another)  So the "atmosphere" of the moon has to be a bunch
of bouncing atoms (since most are below escape velocity) rarely interacting with
each other. Not what we normally consider a gas. But any atom exceeding escape
velocity will almost never hit anything on its way out and will be gone!

Do not be facetious.  It is your obligation to provide evidence supporting
your claims.  Trying to shifting the burden of proof might work with other
people; not with me.

IOW, you have no evidence, you are only relying on your (as it will be
shown, ignorant) interpretation of second-hand information.

So you have not read my other follow-up at all, or studied up on this before
you posted.  Because if you did, you would have known that the speed of
molecules is properly described by the Maxwell–Boltzmann probability
distribution which is decidedly NOT symmetric like a Bell curve.

It also has a rather long tail, which means that the majority of gas
particles (they do not have to be molecules; for example, helium is a
one-atomic substance) have the *lowest* speed.

There are three characteristic speeds for gas particles in statistical
thermodynamics:

  1. The speed that most gas particles have:

       v_max = √(2 k T/m);

  2. The mean speed:

       v̅ = √(8 k T/(π m));

  3. The root mean square (RMS) of the speeds¹:
         __
       √(v²) = √(3 k T/m)

In each case m is the mass of one particle (cf. my calculation).

One can see that the following is true:
                 __
   v_max < v̅ < √(v²)

IOW, *most* gas particles have the *lowest* of all characteristic speeds.

    [Thank you for helping me to prepare for the physics exam.]

> Molecules in the far right tail escape and are lost.

But those are NOT the *majority* of gas particles.

> How big the tail determines how rapidly they escape.

No, it determines the ratio of the highest to the lowest speeds.  But that
does NOT mean that there would be more gas particles that have a high speed;
on the contrary.

Plain wrong.  Think about it: A gas particle can escape in *any* direction.
Luna is only moving in *one* direction.

Still no evidence.  You are just making claims above claims, based on an
interpretation of a Wikipedia articles that is only supported by your
complete ignorance of the subject matter.  Hopeless.

That gas particles escape is NOT the reason why Earth is not the core of a
gas giant.

Shut up and study (astrophysics; like I do).

> [tl;dr]

I do not have time for further of your wannabe’s nonsense.  Come back when
you actually know what you are talking about.

______
¹  You square each speed, determine the arithmetic mean of the squares,
   and take the square root of that.  Note that this is not the same as
   squaring the arithmetic mean and reverting that by taking the square
   root.

This is true *if the gases have a temperature that is high enough* and
*are located far enough from the center of mass* of the celestial body.

For a spherically symmetric celestial body of mass M, the escape velocity
v_esc (actually, a speed) is the speed where the kinetic energy T of a
particle with mass m at least equals the potential energy U of gravity:

             T = U
    m/2 v_esc² = G m M/r,
        v_esc  = √(2 G M/r),

with r the distance of the particle from the celestial body’s center of mass
(note that the escape velocity is independent from the particle’s mass).

<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Escape_velocity>

For Luna (the Moon), the escape velocity on its surface (r = R_Luna) is

  v_esc ≈ √(2 G M_Luna/R_Luna) ≈ 2.376 km/s.

<https://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=sqrt(2+G+lunar+mass%2Flunar+radius)>

The velocity of the most gas particles at absolute temperature T, according
to the Maxwell–Boltzmann velocity distribution, is

  v_max = √(2 k T/m),

with k the Boltzmann constant and m the mass of one particle.  For helium, m
is the mass of one helium atom,

  m = m_He ≈ 4 u ≈ 6.65 × 10⁻²⁷ kg    [2 protons and 2 neutrons;
                                       the 2 electrons have negligible mass]

The mean surface temperature on Luna is ̅θ_Luna = −36 °C, that is

  T̅_Luna = (−36 + 273.15) K = 237.15 K.

<https://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=Lunar+mean+surface+temperature>

We find:

  v_max_He_Luna = √(2 k T̅_Luna/m_He) ≈ 0.9923 km/s
  v_max_H₂_Luna = √(2 k T̅_Luna/m_H₂) ≈ 1.539  km/s.

<https://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=sqrt(2+*+Boltzmann+constant+*+(Luna+mean+surface+temperature+in+K)%2F(mass+of+helium+atom))>

<https://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=sqrt(2+*+Boltzmann+constant+*+(Luna+mean+surface+temperature+in+K)%2F(mass+of+hydrogen+molecule))&assumption=%7B%22DPClash%22,+%22ChemicalP%22,+%22mass%22%7D+-%3E+%7B%22MolecularMass%22%7D>

Both are *below* the escape velocity on the lunar surface at mean lunar
surface temperature.

So it is entirely possible for Luna to hold a *thin* *tenuous* atmosphere
which contains both helium and hydrogen.  Which is why it *actually* does:

<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmosphere_of_the_Moon>

> that size where incoming PUSH of gravitational force equals outgoing PUSH

Nonsense.  Gases escape from a celestial body because molecules’/atoms’
speeds exceed the escape velocity at a certain distance from the center of
mass due to the gases’ temperatures.  See above for the reason.

Put simply, you have to throw up something fast enough for it never to return.

> The Earth and the Moon are too small to attract Helium and Hydrogen.

But Terra’s atmosphere contains 0.000055 % molecular hydrogen (H₂) and
0.000524 % helium (He), *too*:

<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmosphere_of_Earth>

These observational facts refute your idea.

    [You can also calculate that using the equation above and
     an atmospheric altitude of h = 10 km to 100 km (r = R_Terra + h).]

And let us just assume for a moment that there would be no hydrogen (H₂) in
Terra’s atmosphere at all: Where, do you think, does water (H₂O) come from?

Read, think, post; in *that* order.

Why couldn’t they take a small tank up? Like the dozens of tanks of various

Here’s a thought, John. How about waiting 12 hours before you post a
reaction. Would give you time to look things up, and also give you time to
reconsider the next silly thing that crosses your mind? Your mouth moves
way too fast for your brain.

Obviously they could.
Helium is constantly being lost from Earth.

You never commented on my “S orbit” for He and H, Odd. Why not?

Since the electrons orbit around all 3 axes, the atom reacts to push by moving TOWARDS it.

The gravity of the moon is too weak to hold onto an atmosphere
of any kind.
