How much of it we see depends on the moon's position in relation to Earth and the sun. Though a satellite of Earth, the moon, with a diameter of about 2,159 miles (3,475 kilometers), is bigger than Pluto. (Four other moons in our solar system are even bigger.).The moon is a bit more than one-fourth (27 percent) the size of Earth, a much smaller ratio (1:4) than any other planets and their moons.This means the moon has a great effect on the planet and very possibly is what makes life on Earth possible.oon phases and the moon's orbit are mysteries to many. For example, the moon always shows us the same face. That happens because it takes 27.3 days both to rotate on its axis and to orbit Earth. We see either the full moon, half moon or no moon (new moon) because the moon reflects sunlight.

But the FCA will also regulate the conduct of those firms that are prudentially regulated by the PRA. Groups containing both dual-regulated and FCA-regulated firms are likely to be affected as if they were dual-regulated. Lloyd's (the Society of Lloydâs and Lloydâs managing agents) will also be dual-regulated.n the case of UK subsidiaries of overseas insurers, PRA supervision will mirror that for UK insurers. But it will have only limited prudential powers over branches of EEA insurers operating in the UK. In such cases, the most it can do is seek to influence the supervisory approach of the home state regulator.
