Books about the Moon, Earth's only natural satellite. It orbits around Earth at an average distance of 384,399 kilometres (238,854 mi),{{efn|Because the Moon follows an elliptical path, its distance from Earth varies over the year, ranging from 357,000–407,000 kilometres (222,000–253,000 mi), about 30 times Earth's diameter, and completes an orbit (lunar month) every 29.5 days. This is the same length it takes the Moon to complete a rotation (lunar day). The rotation period is synchronized with the orbital period by Earth's gravity forcing the Moon to face Earth always with the same side, making it tidally locked. The Moon's gravity causes tidal forces on Earth, which are the main driver of Earth's tides.
