  1. Research on the formation of the Moon has not yet fully clarified its origin. The most widely accepted theory suggests an impact with a celestial body called Theia, which occurred around 4.51 billion years ago, but the implications of this event are still being studied.

  11. [Moon formation scenari] After detailed 3D simulations and isotopic analysis of terrestrial and lunar rocks have swept aside the hypothesis of a collision between our proto-Earth and a planet called Theia, which scenario should be favored?

    That's the topic on which Erik Asphaug, planetary scientist at the University of Arizona, will be speaking to the IRAPians this Tuesday afternoon: irap.omp.eu/event/if-at-first- Great discussions ahead 💬 👋

  16. Sir George Howard Darwin (Charles' second son) proposed in 1879 that Earth had been spinning so fast that some material broke away and began to orbit the planet. This popular theory was not disproven until the Apollo missions.

  17. How did we name our planets and moons? On this episode, Neil deGrasse Tyson and comic co-host Chuck Nice explain all the things you thought you knew about the names in our solar system, the origin of the moon, and the constellations in the night sky.

  18. Fission and impact, simply explained.

    “Why bother talking about moons? They're just boring lumps of rock.”

    Not so! Moons are sources of great interest to anybody who's interested in space, and continually challenge the way scientists and astronomers think.

  19. Different types of moons, perhaps unsurprisingly, are thought to come from different origins. Here are some theories Earth humans have come up with so far: accretion and capture.

  20. There are a number theories that have been put forward for moon formation, but accretion and capture are the most common for explaining the majority of the moons in our Solar System. Other theories include fission and impact. Learn more about moons: solarsystem.nasa.gov/moons/ove
