Old Hypothesis on How the Moon Formed Gains Support.

[JMH]

For those with enquiring minds.

The Giant Impact Hypothesis (GIH) is the main theory we have at this point about how the Moon formed. It is generally agreed upon by astronomers and planetary scientists, although alternative explanations about how our faithful companion appeared have been set forth over the years. At this point, a new idea is gaining increasing support in the scientific community. It states that the satellite formed as a result of a runaway nuclear georeactor in the Earth's mantle, Technology Review reports.

so the earth and moon were made by a huge ball of lava in space... thats cool, how does it effect the world we live in today?

That makes sense actually.

I thought it would be some crazy theory, but this works.
Makes more sense actually.

it does make sense in a scientific perspective, i just can't bring myself to care about creation. i just don't feel like where we came from has an effect on us now.
