Is it possible that...(re: Earth and moon)
(This is regarding how the moon became apart of our orbit)
Is it not possible that insted of the moon simply crashing into the earth, giving us some of its mass, and the rest just drifts off, gathers and gets caught in our orbit...could it not of been headed on a crash course WITH Earth (both traveling towards our solar system) and met/crashed in our solor system, bouching off each other causing them to dramatically reduce their speed and get caught in the suns orbit, and the moon simply getting caught and pulled in by Earth gravity and sticking it in our orbit?
Anything to really back up my claim? no :) Well, the Earth has a much different interior than mercury and venus, and much larger dense core.
Obvious difference than other plants in our solor system...life (or the environment for life)
Just a thought :)
