Scientist do not know how we got our moon,
Secular Moon origin hypotheses have not fared well recently.
And the ones that do make it into headlines rely too much on fiction and speculation.
The Moon’s size and distance from
Earth determine how big tides we have. Without tides marine life would sooner or later
come to an end, and our planet could turn into Mars’ twin.
In other words, the Moon looks designed to
maintain life on Earth.
The origin of the Moon is a naturalistic dilemma.
Now, a computer simulation that traces the moon’s
formation in high resolution may explain the mystery of why it is so chemically
similar to Earth.
The conventional
story for the moons origin is that a primordial planet named Theia
smashed into Earth and spewed molten rock into space. This debris, primarily
made up of Theia, then coalesced into the moon over what Darwinist believe in tens
of millions of years.
