about 4B years ago, giving credence to the theory of the still largely
molten ball of Earth being obliquely impacted by a Mercury/Mars
sized planet traveling in the same direction as Earth, albeit a little
faster, flinging enough surface material into orbit to form the Moon.
The two largely metal cores converged to form the present day core
and exerting the gravity needed to capture the Moon in an steady
orbit. GuthBall really like this theory, along with his Venusian runways
and upper cloud stationed dirigibles.

No it won't, Hagar! *lmfjao!

Eventually the Moon will return to Earth, reach the Roche limit and
BREAK UP!

The MOON is DOOMED!

The Moon is receding from Earth appr. 3.7cm per year ... so just wait a
few
billion years and it'll fly off into space by itself, GuthBall.

Your mainstream "credence" of that old subjective theory is noted, as
is your kosher approved obfuscation/exclusion of all other evidence
that supports my interpretation, in that as of 12,600 +/- some odd
years ago we obtained our icy Selene/moon (most likely derived from
Sirius B).

Of course our Eden/Earth had been near-miss encountered and/or having
been impacted several times before, as well as affected by the cosmic
likes of nearby red supergiants and their nova/flashover
transformations into white dwarfs.

The icy Selene encounter was most likely a slow motion kind of
lithobraking sucker-punch (glancing rear-ender) that created the
Arctic ocean basin and caused the final seasonal tilt we have today.
