8. Which celestial body has the greater effect on Earth's tides?

Explain

The moon

Explanation:

Since the Moon is a relatively large object in space that is very close to the Earth, its gravity actually pulls Earth's water towards it. Wherever the moon is, as it orbits the Earth, there is a high tide 'bulge' that stays lined up with the Moon. The sun also plays a a role in this since it has a gravitational pull much greator than the moon but due to it being much farther away, it causes tides only half as strong as the ones from the moon.

I searched it up and what i got was:

The Moon's gravity pulls more on the planet than the water on the opposite side. These two water bulges on opposite sides of the Earth aligned with the Moon are the high tides. Since ocean water is pulled higher in the areas of the two high tides, there is less water in between the two high tides.
