71. Do Now Four hypotheses on the formation of the moon.
Fission hypothesis- a rapidly spinning Earth splits into two. The smaller rock being the ___.

Capture hypothesis- the Earth’s ___ captures the moon into its orbit.
Collision hypothesis- a Mars sized rock ___ with Earth. The smashed pieces form the moon.
moon
same

collides

72. The Collisional Ejection Theory
The Collisional Ejection Theory
Currently, the theory that best explains all the evidence is the collisional ejection theory. This theory holds that the Moon formed from debris ejected from the Earth when a large object (the size of Mars) crashed into the Earth. The energy from such a collision produces a stream of vaporized rock from the impact. The Moon forms from this cooled material.
This theory explains many of the known properties of the Moon's orbit and composition. The ejected material would have coalesced in or near the ecliptic plane, putting the Moon into an orbit much like the one it has. The Moon, which is believed to have a small iron core, could have retained this core through the collision. Also, this collision could have tipped the Earth's axis, causing the seasons we now know.

73. The Capture Theory
Many of the moons around other planets are really captured asteroids and not objects that formed in place with the mother planet, or were ejected by the mother planet. One hint is the shape. If a moon is shaped irregularly (more like a potato than round like the Earth's Moon) it is a good sign that a moon is really a captured asteroid. Phobos and Deimos of Mars look like this. Another good sign that a moon may be captured is if it orbits in a direction opposite to that of the mother planet. An example of a moon of this kind is Neptune's moon Triton.
The Earth's Moon is both rounded in shape and orbits with Earth. These are the best clues that the Moon is not captured. If the Moon were captured it would explain why the Moon and the Earth do not appear to be made of the same kinds of rock.
Small moons of Saturn

74. The Co-Formation Theory
The co-formation theory explains the origin of the moon as an object which formed out of the initial cloud of gas and dust at the same time and roughly the same place as the Earth. As shown in this picture, while they were forming in the solar nebula, the beginning of the moons-to-be (called protomoons) drew material to themselves from the cloud of gas and dust around them. Because the proto-moon was so close to the proto-earth the gas out of which they both formed ought to be very similar, composed mostly of something which would form rock.
The co-formation theory explains why the moon appears in the location it does but it does not explain the evidence that the Earth and Moon do not appear to be made of the same stuff.
