Even With the Moon Directly Overhead, You Would Stay on the Ground
Earth's surface gravity is about six times the Moon's, and closeness does not change the outcome.
Kurzgesagt – In a Nutshell · What Happens if the Moon Crashes into Earth?You would stay on the ground even if the Moon hovered directly overhead.
The question comes up in a thought experiment in which the Moon sinks toward Earth. You might wonder whether its gravity could overpower Earth's and lift you up.
It could not. Earth's surface gravity is about six times the Moon's. And the Moon's pull on you from overhead is far weaker than Earth's pull on you at that distance, so you stay on the ground. Closeness does not change the outcome.
Questions people ask
How much would I weigh on the Moon?
About one-sixth of your Earth weight. A person who weighs 180 pounds on Earth would weigh about 30 pounds on the Moon. You would feel light and bouncy, but not float away.
Could the Moon ever really hover over one spot?
Not at its current distance, because it circles Earth about once a month. An object can appear to hang over one spot only in a much lower geosynchronous orbit, where its trip matches Earth's daily spin. As the Moon spiraled inward, it would orbit faster and could briefly match that pace and seem to hang still.
