...tidal force stretches the Earth - core, mantle, crust, oceans and all - producing bulges.

This tug-of-war - essentially a transfer of energy between the Earth and the moon - boosts the moon's orbital momentum, pushing it away from the Earth at a rate of 1.6 inches a year (the moon's distance from us will increase by the length of a football field over the course of 2,250 years), while...
