Introvertmemer:
Please who knows where i can buy a telescope at a cheap price

Spy360:
The current trend now is that sign of life is being discovered in Venus.

Let me summarize the above information about the formation of the moon, according to scientists.

There are a couple of theories concerning moon formation viz:

(1)Capture theory: It suggests that the Moon was a wandering body (like an asteroid) that formed elsewhere in the solar system and was captured by Earth's gravity as it passed nearby.

(2) Accretion theory: This suggests that the Moon was created along with Earth at its formation.

(3)Fission scenario: This states that the earth had been spinning so fast that some material broke away and began to orbit the planet.

(4) Giant Impact theory: This is the latest and the most acceptable theory which states that proto-earth collided with Theia and fused together to form our Earth.
But a part of the fussion between proto-earth and Theia broke off and become what we now refer to as the moon.

Nice one beauty7.
Talking about the Moon, going from the little research I've made so far, the moon has no light on it's own. Rather, the light we do see from the moon is as a reflection of the light from the Sun.

What do you have to say about this.

oscarsam:
Any Flat Earth believer in the house??

Not minding how far science has gone to prove that the Earth is round like a ball shape, I so much believe that the Earth is flat and has so many theories to back this up.

davidadeoluwa:
A recent study shows that the moon moves few centimeters (about 2cm yearly) away from the earth as it orbits. This confirms that the moon was closer to earth when it was formed

Spy360:

Probably it is gradually escaping from the earth's gravitational pull similar to any spinning object.

This is serious as in millions of years time, moonlight will be an ancient experience...

Spy360:

I will take number 1 and 2 combined.

Because the moon should have similar creation theory with what is obtainable for the moons of other planets. I think when our solar system was forming smaller objects began to orbit any larger object closest to it, our moon found us just as the moons of other planets fell under their gravitational influence.

Nice one.

physicistman:


The sun and moon as seen from earth's sky appears round, but somehow in your magical mind the earth has to be like a flat plate.
okay o

Najdorf:

Please share those theories if you can.

oscarsam:


Not theories per say, rather observations with many unanswered questions.

The first man to travel into "space" said the earth is as flat as a disk with upturned edges. He didn't use fish lens cameras. He's called Auguste Picard. Why aren't we taught about him?

He said he saw the sun and went past it till he hit water far above the sun. Why hasn't anyone explained what Picard saw or refute him in his lifetime? They simply waited till he died before they began telling lies
