• How did the moon get here / form?
• Theories on how moon was formed?
– The Fission Theory: The Moon was once part of the Earth and
somehow separated from the Earth early in the history of the
Solar System. The present Pacific Ocean basin is the most
popular site for the part of the Earth from which the Moon
came.
– The Capture Theory: The Moon was formed somewhere else,
and was later captured by the gravitational field of the earth.
– The Condensation Theory: The Moon and the Earth
condensed together from the original nebula that formed the
Solar System.
– The Colliding Planetesimals Theory: The interaction of earth-
orbiting and Sun-orbiting planetesimals (very large chunks of
rocks like asteroids) early in the history of the Solar System
led to their breakup. The Moon condensed from this debris.
– The Ejected Ring Theory: A planetesimal the size of Mars
struck the earth, ejecting large volumes of matter. A disk of
orbiting material was formed, and this matter eventually
condensed to form the Moon in orbit around the earth.

– B.) The earth is closer to the sun in the summer
and further away in the winter.

grow more in the summer.

  • 41. • Theories on how moon was formed? – The Fission Theory: The Moon was once part of the Earth and somehow separated from the Earth early in the history of the Solar System. The present Pacific Ocean basin is the most popular site for the part of the Earth from which the Moon came. – The Capture Theory: The Moon was formed somewhere else, and was later captured by the gravitational field of the earth. – The Condensation Theory: The Moon and the Earth condensed together from the original nebula that formed the Solar System. – The Colliding Planetesimals Theory: The interaction of earth- orbiting and Sun-orbiting planetesimals (very large chunks of rocks like asteroids) early in the history of the Solar System led to their breakup. The Moon condensed from this debris. – The Ejected Ring Theory: A planetesimal the size of Mars struck the earth, ejecting large volumes of matter. A disk of orbiting material was formed, and this matter eventually condensed to form the Moon in orbit around the earth.
