LONDON - It's wonderful when we see to make the night bright. However, we never know before about theory about how the Moon or selena was created. Perhaps, it's helpful to know about the new assumption.
Researchers have found evidence of the formation of the Moon due to a planet crashing into Earth billions of years ago. Analysis of rocks on the moon by Apollo astronauts brought successfully showed traces of a planet called Theia.
Quoted by the BBC, Saturday (07/06/2014), the researchers claim that their discovery confirms a theory that the Moon was created by a devastating collision. The study has been published by the journal Science.
This theory is applicable since 1980, which explains that the Moon appears as a result of a collision between Earth and Theia 4.5 billion years ago.
Theia is a goddess in Greek mythology, is said to be the mother Selene, goddess of the Moon. The formation diperkiran is the result of debris impact both these planets are merged into one.
This is the simplest explanation, and fits in well with the computer simulation. The main weakness in this theory is that, no one is able to find evidence of the material in the sample Theia moon rocks.
Previous analyzes showed that the moon rocks derived entirely from the Earth. While computer simulations indicate that the Moon is mostly derived from Theia.
