Scientific paper

I WAS much interested in reading Prof. Ball's lecture in NATURE, vol. xxv. p. 79, but failed to understand the following passage on p. 81:-`` The reaction of the earth tends to increase that distance, and to force the moon to revolve in an orbit which is continually getting larger and larger.'' In what sense does the reaction of the earth tend to ``drive away'' the moon? Will the Royal Astronomer of Ireland, or some other friend of science, be so kind as to add a few words of explanation?
