    • [ Scientists believe the moon formed by a giant impact of the nascent Earth with a Mars-sized object called Theia.]

      that is sooooo kewl. I didn't know they had named that object.

      p.s. I know why the moon has so few craters,....relative to what it should have.

      If someone has presented a theory addressing that in the last 25 years,....someone should turn me on to it, so I can compare guesses.

      otherwise.....
