A laser beam is to be directed towards the center of the Moon, but the beam deviates 0.5° from its proposed path.

1. How much has the ray deviated from its proposed path when it reaches the Moon? (The distance from the Earth to the Moon is 240,000 miles).

2. Will the lightning strike the Moon?
(The radius of the Moon is approximately 1,000 miles.)

3. Calculate the greatest possible angle that the laser beam can be deflected in order to hit the Moon. (Use at least two decimal places)
