Origins of the Moon

1)      Briefly explain how the Earth’s Moon, and entire universe, formed per the Nebular Theory demonstrated in the online animation in our online course material and discussed in our text book (pages 21-24, and 817-819).

2)       Briefly explain how the Earth’s Moon formed, per the “Mars-Sized Object Collision” concept discussed in our textbook (pages 823-825).Note that the collision was with an object relatively the same size as the planet Mars for comparison purposes, but the collision was not actually with Mars.

3)      Provide 2 scientific reasons (essentially facts/data), from our week 1 reading and online course material, that would support the Nebular Theory as the method of formation for the Earth’s Moon.the universe as a whole formed via the Nebular Theory, therefore if we think about the Earth’s Moon forming the same way as the rest of the universe and Earth via the Nebular Theory, then wouldn’t Earth and its Moon have similarities? (2 points per reason; 4 points total)

4)     Provide 1 scientific reason that refutes the Nebular Theory as the method of formation for the Earth’s Moon. Hint: Think about how the Earth and Earth’s Moon are different. (2 points total)

5)      Provide 2 scientific reasons that would support the “Mars-Sized Object Collision” concept as the method of formation for the Earth’s Moon. This means that the universe and Earth still formed via the Nebular Theory, but that the Earth’s Moon formed via the “Mars-Sized Object Collision” concept – hence the Earth and the Earth’s Moon would have formed two different ways. Hint: If the two formed in different ways, then wouldn’t they have differences instead of similarities? (2 points per reason; 4 points total)

6)      Provide 1 scientific reason that refutes the “Mars-Sized Object Collision” concept as the method of formation for the Earth’s Moon. Hint: Think visual evidence… (2 points total)
