Quoted: You gotta admit, the whole cyclic system of our planet (oceans, seasons, agriculture, eco system, etc....) is all moon dependant. Keeps everything extremly stable and predictable. Also the moon is at a perfect distance and size to give perfect eclipses. Many astrological discoveries wern't possible without it. Many other benefits to our planet. Lots of coinky dinks. View Quote Who knows if somewhere there's a planet with two-three smaller suns and life developed because of that and they're sitting around talking about how lucky they are to have multiple suns that keeps the planet in constant daylight because without that they couldn't survive. |

Quoted: There are tribes in Africa with cave paintings and stories passed down generations that spoke of a time before we had a moon. The timeline of the moon appearing relates to the Biblical Flood. Interestingly Fascinating. Also, its been proving that given its orbit, mass, and location in relation to the earth. The moon is hallow. Finally, all celestial objects, moons, planets, rotate except for our moon. We have also found other "moons" in our solar system that do not rotate but are in a satellite orbit similar to our moon.

There are an estimated 700 quintillion planets in the observable universe. Many planets have more than 1 moon. Seems like....kind of a common thing.

The moon gives us tides and something interesting to look at in the night sky, and it occasionally casts it's shadow on the earth. The seasons are a function of the earth's orbit around the sun and the offset of it's rotational axis. It could be speculated that the offset of the axis was caused in the moon forming collision event, but that would mean that our seasons were ultimately given to us be an unnamed mars sized rock. |

Quoted: I am religious, and I believe in the theory of Intelligent Design, and that my God is a God or science and order. There’s no law that you can’t believe in God and not question the universe around you. I don’t buy into random theories; life and space are far too complex to be happenstance. If there was as big bang, it was part of the design. The moon has a role on the gravitational pull of the planet and helps with the rotational balance of earth, causes tides, and creates a rhythm for humans. Other planets have moons that likely provide similar affects for the planets they orbit. Was the moon put in place where it is? Was Earth placed in the third spot from the sun? Was our solar system placed here? I believe in science, but I also believe in Intelligent Design. While I can’t explain everything, I believe there is an answer that involves physics and science as we know it…I don’t believe God appreciates the “Rainbows and Ponies” hand-wave of how things came into being from religious leaders. I actually think God respects those who question and seek answers to the world around them and beyond… ROCK6 View Quote Great post brother! |

Quoted: The moon rotates. View Quote Rotation is a concept rooted in white supremacy The cosmos is radiating transmissions. Life is a constant. Although you may not realize it, you are divine. Throughout history, humans have been interacting with the dreamtime via ultrasonic energy. Reality has always been beaming with mystics whose brains are engulfed in starfire. Who are we? Where on the great journey will we be recreated? Yes, it is possible to shatter the things that can confront us, but not without spacetime on our side. Illusion is born in the gap where joy has been excluded. Where there is selfishness, conscious living cannot thrive. Awareness requires exploration. The goal of bio-electricity is to plant the seeds of potentiality rather than delusion. Empathy is the driver of starfire. By evolving, we exist. Have you found your path? Being, look within and bless yourself. How should you navigate this authentic universe? Donate to my patreon |

Quoted: Interestingly enough I just watched recently a 'documentary' titled 'Alien Moon', where the premise is that the moon is not a natural satellite and is in fact hollow. I am told it is in a perfectly circular orbit, not typical, and when moves over the sun in the perfect size and distance to create a total eclipse. The earth facing side is smooth and glassy, distinguishing it's character from the back side, for the most part, indicating this was the front, leading edge as it travelled from its distant origin into earth orbit. Also the moon's appearance coincided biblically with Noah's flood, prior to which the earth had never experienced rain. This latter part I confirmed with a biblical scholar. (Prior to that the earth was shrouded in a cloak of water vapor). Moonquakes - Finally it has been reported numerous times, including by those astronauts who've been there, while they've been there that the moon vibrates for a time after a seismic event and once was reported to 'ring like a bell'. The aftershocks of a quake far exceed, in duration, what would be normal for a solid sphere. Did it originate as a part of the earth? Moonrocks have been found that are much older than the oldest found on Earth, and older than the moondust upon which they are found, so not possible according to that,. Could this explain the origin of all the so-called UFO's? Do they originate from the moon's interior? Let me know if you have questions. View Quote Did you know that the orbit of the moon is in fact NOT completely circular? There is a distinct periapsis and apoapsis. It is for this reason that there are two distinct types of solar eclipses. Annular solar eclipses take place when the moon is too far from the earth to block the entire disk. Total solar eclipses are more rare and only take place when the moon is close enough to block the entire disk. Partial eclipses happen at any distance and are common. Did you know that the earth facing side of the moon is in fact NOT smooth and "glassy"? The "seas" on the moon consist of scattered boulders, craters, rays, etc, and the kilometers upon square kilometers of lunar regolith is neither perfectly flat, nor particularly reflective. Also, there are mountain ranges on the earth-facing side of the moon. There are craters on the backside of the moon as well. I believe there are actually more craters on the far side of the moon than on the near side, as it is thought by some that the "seas" are volcanic in origin, therefore the surface would be younger and less bombarded. The moon "ablation" notion makes no sense in that context. Did you know that most astronomers don't think the moon is a solid sphere, as most regard at least a part of the interior to be semi-solid or liquid? Regardless, a solid sphere would actually "ring" longer than one that had a liquid interior. Prolonged vibration, at least compared to the Earth suggests that the waves are propagating through a more solid body. The crust of the moon can be studied and it's makeup determined within reason to be far too heavy, brittle and fractured to be self-supporting. Also, the mass and density of the moon can be reasonably be determined by it gravitation and gravitational effects. If the moon were hollow, it would not like up with the observational data. The moon appears to have sustained some major impacts, all of which could have been quite problematic for a hollow sphere, not to mention the volcanism and seismic activity both present and past. Did you know that the Earth is more geologically active than the moon? It it's history, the Earth would have undergone many more transformations of the crust than the moon would have. Therefore the accretion material that made up the moon and the earth would have survived longer on the moon than it ever would have on the Earth. Also, the Earth is extremely dynamic thanks to it's thick atmosphere. Any meteoroids which arrive on earth are rare and difficult to find. I don't know how rare it is to find a meteoroid on the moon or the Earth which predates the solar accretion ring, but if such finds happen, it would likely happen on the moon where the surface is in a relative stasis. Any arrival debris that was solid before the formation of the Earth and Moon would necessarily be older than the lunar surface, especially it's regolith. Despite being very old, the lunar soil is not eternal. Absent a future impact, the astronaut footprints will likely disappear in a couple million years. As for the initial appearance of the moon coinciding with Noah's flood, I simply have no idea where that comes from. I sat in Sunday School longer than most here and I missed any references to that. In my opinion, any references to that are based on little more than interpretations of interpretations of symbolic language used to tell the story of Noah. In fact in Genesis 1:16, it pretty much comes out and says that God created the moon on the 4th day. If I've been trolled, then great job! |

The orbital eccentricity is a little more than .05. It's noticeably NOT circular. It's not. The moon doesn't perfectly cover the sun. At some orbital positions, during a solar eclipse the moon actually covers more than the entire disk of the sun. More frequently it covers less than the entire disk of the sun.

Quoted: Seriously, you would have learned more facts if you had asked your dog. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Very nice! I spent most of my formative years in church, Sunday school, Bible school, etc., so that background, and not once in all that time was the topic of the moon appearing or rain commencing broached. I never thought to consider such a thing. So, when I heard that at one time there apparently was no moon, I laughingly conveyed it to someone whom I consider a scholar and she immediately advised that there used to be no rain on earth prior to the flood. The flood was the first rain. So it all seemed to fit together and make sense. Your comments are mostly fine-tuning the points I retrieved from memory on the whole subject. Seriously, you would have learned more facts if you had asked your dog. I have no dog. |
