The Moon (月) is the Earth's only known natural satellite, and is in a synchronous rotation approximately 384,403 kilometers from it. Hence, it always faces the Earth with the same one side while orbiting the Earth. It is apparently uninhabited by any forms of life. It is currently the only astronomical object (other than Earth) that man physically explored.
In the Sailor Moon series, the moon was the home of the Silver Millennium in ancient times, which was ruled by the Moon matriarchy and the power of the Silver Crystal.
The Moon Castle was located on the shores of the Mare Serenitatis (meaning "sea of serenity"), and was the palace of the Moon matriarchy. It was destroyed when the forces of the Dark Kingdom, led by Queen Beryl, attacked, but in the manga, it was recreated by Sailor Moon after the death of Metalia.
