The chances that our Moon exists the way it does is relatively small. It's very amazing that it happened here and that we can witness its tidally locked orbit.
So, I have a story on how the moon was formed. A long time ago a beautiful woman named Earth was looking for a hansom man ( Another planet) to settle down with. A man named Bob ( the space thing that crashed into Earth) married Earth. Earth and Bob had a baby but Bob divorced her, 9 space months later (idk) The moon was born, that's why the Earth is called mother Earth, the end
I've watched this video many times, but never made it to the end, congrats on proving the theory right! It just shows how rare the formation was, the collision is not that rare, but The Moon is quite rare!
The original mass' gravity, would likely have been higher than Earth's current general gravity, with the fragments filling the orbit and later piling in the Lagrange points... we can look to the general density of those debris fields to surmise the density of the ejecta, in order to get the best guess for the original planetary bodies masses(if we look to the earth and lunar masses as the originating bodies)... sure, there will be a large margin of error, but it would be a lot closer than just throwing out a relative gravity based upon the current mass and orbit of earth. also remember, gravity density is pretty fluid, and in flux, and planetary accretion would be affected by Sol, the field density prior to the orbiting body having cleared it out(part of the qualification for planetary bodies) and Sol's state at "the time", our proximity to and the effect of to the intergalactic medium... our interaction with dark matter/etc... xD Yeah, surely this simulator is insufficient. lol
I think the reason why your experiment tends to fail over time is because the simulation isn't complete, or rather the information input isn't complete. For example, the collision should have happened when the two large bodies had already been rotating around their axis. Besides, looking at the simulation created by the software, it looks not really detailed and realistic, which could be a major problem when attempting to simulate a real life event.
I heard that the moon was created when the collision formed a ring that had a high temperature and then eventually formed the moon... they also said the early moon was closer to the earth and somehow got to a higher altitude.
The impact hypothesis proposed by George Darwin was reviewed in the early 1970s by William Hartmann based on chemical analysis of rocks brought back to Earth by the Apollo missions. The similarity of these to rocks from the Earth's crust (particularly the low iron content) was concluded to show that an object of about one-third the mass of the proto-Earth collided at an acute angle, melting the crust and ejecting enough into orbit for it to form first a ring and then by agglomeration a new body.
+Anton Petrov; First, let me say I applaud anyone who - like you - wants to share knowledge with others. It's so very, VERY important. My question for your is - the moon's 'scary'-looking to you (0:27)?!?! Since humans earliest times, they've gazed in wonder, and awe at his beautiful, silent jewel which hangs there in our sky. Sometimes, I try to imagine (blocking out everything - technology, countries, people, life itself, and just gaze up to behold it, and wonder what it must've been like when there were less people in 100km than the now are in an apparent complex. It's majestic, and in a way it's - to me, at least, a first step trying to comprehend how tiny this habitat of our is, and all the myriad of insignificant issues one can find on this planet, as the inky darkness. Thanks, Anton. 🌕🌖🌗🌘🌕🌖🌓🌒🌔
Just imagine the very first space mining session takes place on Fragments of the Thea and Earth collision and we don't even realize until we actually start mining it...
What ended up happening in the end is super cool, bc in one specific theory on the collision, theia hit earth, but scraped along it, flying back up, but then hit a t again for the final time, just like what happened at the end there
Note about the "Moon event" at 17:53 - Thea did a double-tap collision. Maybe second impact at much lower speed "squirted" out the main mass of the future Moon? Just a thought.
This is a great video. I want to add something. When the moon formed, the solar system was young and a mess. You try to smash a single body onto earth over and over being unable to reproduce the orbit of a stable moon. I want to suggest that back then there were a lot of rougue bodies influencing the gravitational environment around Earth, some with very close orbits that ended on Earth herself, some with much more loose orbits that probabily ended onto the Sun or Jupiter, or in the Lagrange areas inbetween. Just a suggestion.
You should try to replicate the conditions more completely. Have you tried orbiting a proto earth around a proto sun and then allowing a theia object to orbit as in the relatively the same plane so that they crash together and see what happens then? i think that senario would yield better results.
Maybe Theia Was Smaller And Was CLOSE To Earth At Some Point, So Close That It Loses Orbit Around The Sun And Gains Orbit Around Earth, Making An Elliptical Orbit That Would Stabilize Over Millions Of Years To Later Become Our Moon?
US2 doesn't have good enough collision model cause all bodies in it are solid while Earth should be considered as a drop of fluid (with a thin crust) in the case. And the majority of big space objects should be as well. Maybe in US3 we will see the awesomeness of Roche limit effects.
redstone, it's not that accurate. As I recall it, it requires a lot of computing power to calculate the formation of the moon. I think NASA needed super-computers to calculate it.
Great video, mate. Well, here is my suggestion. We can see that moon1 pushes moon2 into higher orbit each time they move close to each other. Is it possible for you to reveal math behind these orbital mechanics? You could try to create some solar system and show how orbits of planets evolve. Which is exactly what happened with our system, right? Those gas planets were closer to the sun at the beginning and then they went far away from the sun just like Moon went far away from Earth.
in the sandbox, when you try throwing another planet at earth, it explode into tiny bits which would not help forming the moon, it need to stil have a large fragment
Plz do a huge moon system that involves a huge star with a smaller star orbiting it, and a smaller star orbiting that, and goes on until it's an asteroid orbiting a moon. That would be awesome! :D
Also need to calculate in, how fast the earth was spinning at the time of impact. This will affect the debris wrapping around the earth, setting up the orbit
I suggest the Moon was birthed from the Earth and the birth was initiated by a heated core increase in gas pressure which blew out on the on the equator which actually altered the subsequent tilt of the Earth. Per the Electrical Universe such an contact impact proposed to create the Moon could not occur.
Maybe its a combination of George Darwin's hypothesis and the Theia Collision hypothesis. Specifically, maybe Theia caused the separation of mass from the proto-earth, and didn't actually collide, meaning it was much smaller.
This gave an idea. What if the proto-earth already had a smaller proto-moon before the collision. Couldn't the moon have picked up a portion of the ejected material?
You said that Mars' moons could be leftovers of the collision that created our moon but didn't Mars experience a similar catastrophic impact too? I could be wrong but I think there are some theories about that and it seems very plausible when you look at Mars' features, especially the vast area (potential crater) where a layer of the crust seem to be missing.
he might have accidentally implied it it, but it wasn't mars that hit earth, but a mars sized object. however, if you are suggesting that Phobos and Deimos are collision fragments that mars captured, that would make for an interesting theory.
Perhaps two of the inner planets, Earth and perhaps Mars, were larger at one point in the early years and with less stable orbits around the sun and collided, with fragments breaking off of both as well as both orbits changing and becoming more stable, and the planets kinda changing while they were still heated from the collision to how they are now, most of the fragments remaining around Earth because of how Earth's gravity is, and pulling themselves together around one that had more gravity to it than the rest of the fragments to become our moon, while a few went off to become/form Mars's moons.
ok the two things you're forgetting is that the earth was freshly formed, aka it was still a runaway nuclear furnace as it probably contained a lot more radioactive materials that didn't react then it does today and being almost new, the sun probably burned a bit hotter...coupled with the fact that a large amount of junk was in orbit around our sun... a' Planet hitting the earth in these state can have a devastating effects, especially if that planet was returning from a really elliptical orbit, aka it was much colder than earth and thus much harder than earth, these through a lot of material into an orbit around earth or into earth's orbit. Gravity eventually compacted and formed a small moon, these could have a cool effect on the molten proto-earth where the moon pulled on the molten surface, creating waves like it does today with water. Eventually, all the fragment that got left in earth's orbit hit earth or the moon letting it grow bigger the older it got, maybe even pulling in some planet like asteroids from space and slowly eating anything that got into a orbit around earth, maybe getting hit by some other planets that were competing for earth's orbit... fast forward a bit and the earth has started to cool down, maybe getting a hydrogen based atmosfeer (These atmosfeer was probably not very thick) and carbon dioxide and other gasses and minerals arrive via some heavy bandbartment earlier in the planet's life span... Fast Forward again and the hydrogen probably mixed with the carbon dioxide to form carbon and water, which formed the first oseaan that sported a beautiful metallic colour as it had a lot of metals and minerals dissolved in it, the earth was cooler, but the water was still boiling hot as volcanic activity may have been of the charts, not to mention that the surface may still have been a bit radioactive with a additional heat blast from the sun as the mixture of atmospheric gasses were totally different than today... The first forms of live may have been extremely basic, bacteria, viruses etc. Then came the ancestor to almost every form of oxygen creating plant in existence (on earth at least) These organisms turned CO2 (which was probably one of the most absorbed gasses in the early oseaan) to O2(Didn't probably form in these early oseaan jet) with the help of solar radiation (Since the atmosfeer had no oxygen, a lot more sunlight hit the surface)... Oxygen is a highly reactive gas that bonded with allot of the early metals in the ocean, basically rust became a thing, these combinations didn't probably mix with water (in theory anyway) and sank to the ground, thus starting one of the first mass extinction event (Big for the time as I don't think a lot of organisms existed in these time aria) as oxygen was a deadly gas to them and here is where I think the trait of dna to be different from generation to generation got amplified as the organisms without these trait couldn't adapt fast enough... fast forward again, plants start to form on land as plant like bacteria was flung onto land and being that DNA was not stable across every species on earth atm in time(jet again I assume these, it's not fact), some bacteria survive the barren wasteland that was random patches of rock above the water, see levels were much higher than today and temperatures where off the charts as the earth had a slight runaway greenhouse problem as CO2-like gasses filled the atmosphere where oxygen is today, basic plants started to evolve, they were evergreen and spread by duplicating themselves or mixing their dna with another nearby tree... Tides were insane, tsunamis that were as high as medium sized skyscrapers beat the shoreline as the moon dominated the sky and over a very long time plant-like organisms turned the CO2-based atmosfeer to a more stable and save oxygen based atmosphere, creating the ozone layer and eventually we came along...
Earth might have had a much larger extended atmosphere (like a small Neptune maybe), which would have softened the collision and circularised the orbits of the debris before they coalesced into the Moon
Beautiful program. Is it possible to let the moon collide with earth on a specific location, at a slow speed? Theres a place on earth, named Galathea depth - 3th deepest place on earth. I suspect this to be the spot where Gala collided with Theia. I have overlayed-matched the two together.
If I am not mistaken, this simulation does not consider gas drag. Hence, fragments and material ejected during the collision may be moving much slower in reality and resulting in a higher capture rate.
+ACE-D-EVIL This simulation is considering only a N-body problem, which there is no gas (completely empty space). The difference between considering gas and no gas is somewhat like considering throwing a ball upwards on land and under water. In the later case, the ball would move much slowing.
+yeungmathew Thats Not The Case.. Actually I've Heard That They Really Landed On Moon But I'm Not So Sure About It.. I Think They Don't Have Any Legit Proof Of It.. I Mean The Videos And The Pictures Could Be Edited..
I think a way to calculate how the earth got its moon through meteor is through velocity tilt orbit mineral and impact of the earth right now and then say the nebiru hypothesis is correct it launched the meteor so if we actually see it it can answer it
I thought the dominant theory was that the Earth and Moon originally formed from the area of the protoplanetary disk. Which is why they are similar in composition, age and are gravitational bound.
maybe the fragments hit about really on the side then a fragment hit a fragment witch gave it velocity and also maybe the angle was on the side and downish because thats the angle of the moon
You know what would be funny? If something collided with Venus and a fragment of that went far away and now its our moon. And that this collision burned all the carbon on Venus so it created that heavy atmosphere and the strong greenhouse effect. Sorry for my bad English but I hope you'll understand what I mean. ')
Maybe the Earth and Moon formed from the same spinning disk of material, and that would also mean that they could be formed from the same material. That's the Moon formation theory that I believe.
you forgot the effects of the stellar gravitational influence and weather or not the proto earth surface was molten. if the planet surface was molten then the impact energy would be more stable, so much so that it could have maintained some velocity to establish orbit.
If we had a 99% accurate physics sim we could run test after test on quantum computers to find the highest sucsess rate via changing everything from element makeup to fineite density. You'd need a really really indepth simulator that goes as far to calculate even the atomic, chemical properties. It would take millions, maybe even billions of tests.
Could you recreate an Ice moon hitting Earth? This is my hypothesis and it answers a lot of questions. How Earth cooled, why the collision didn’t completely destroy both bodies, and how life was brought to earth as well as water. Scientists just found out our water originated in the outer solar system
I believe that in order to get a result that is similar to what happened you should do this in a solar system with 20 or so planets bc at the time the solar system was the place to be for smaller and larger object's... just a thought
The velocity issue is miss thought if the planets were on a similar orbit what if proto earth actually caught up with Theia instead of the other way around as when the collision occurred Theia which was travelling at a slower speed so when the masses collided the remaining bits of Theia would gave been attracted towards the largest mass Proto Earth and over time the ones which found a stable orbit would have created a small orbiting body and over billions of years its just grew in mass by the amount of impacts as we can see on the surgace of the moon
Wouldn't the Sun have a large effect on the collection of the fragments, making them into satellites? For instance, the fragments wouldn't just fly off, they'd still be pulled by the sun
I feel that the sun and its gravity had a role to play in the theia-protoE collision and also in the actual moon creation but I may be wrong, i'm not an astrophysicist

If I am not mistaken, this simulation does not consider gas drag. Hence, fragments and material ejected during the collision may be moving much slower in reality and resulting in a higher capture rate.
I'm A Bit Confused Can You Help???

This simulation is considering only a N-body problem, which there is no gas (completely empty space). The difference between considering gas and no gas is somewhat like considering throwing a ball upwards on land and under water. In the later case, the ball would move much slowing.
+yeungmathew Thats Not The Case..
Actually I've Heard That They Really Landed On Moon But I'm Not So Sure About It..
I Think They Don't Have Any Legit Proof Of It..
I Mean The Videos And The Pictures Could Be Edited..

+Beartrap Trapin Do You Have Any Prove?
I think a way to calculate how the earth got its moon through meteor is through velocity tilt orbit mineral and impact of the earth right now and then say the nebiru hypothesis is correct it launched the meteor so if we actually see it it can answer it
Maybe Earth still has two moons and that is how the Moon keeps moving away from Earth
This is amazing
The Moon ISNT THE EARTHS NATURAL SATTELITE For the truth read the ancient Greek texts (ploutarch, Περι του προσωπου της σεληνης, about the moon )
I thought the dominant theory was that the Earth and Moon originally formed from the area of the protoplanetary disk. Which is why they are similar in composition, age and are gravitational bound.
Our lives on Earth is randomly made by nature, until the thinking of human made Earth special. Hope that life could be found on other planets.
maybe the fragments hit about really on the side then a fragment hit a fragment witch gave it velocity and also maybe the angle was on the side and downish because thats the angle of the moon
You know what would be funny?
If something collided with Venus and a fragment of that went far away and now its our moon.
And that this collision burned all the carbon on Venus so it created that heavy atmosphere and the strong greenhouse effect.
Sorry for my bad English but I hope you'll understand what I mean. ')
Having 2 visible moons would be extremely awesome!
Now, we have 2 moons but only 1 is visible.

God is a child flicking marbles the size of planets
DragonArmy41 lol
i mean...who actually knows...damn it god just tell is the secrets of the universe
Marbles, it would have made more sense if you said rocks
I really want this game
1:40 Phobos is dislocated by the tidal forces of Mars .
Maybe the Earth and Moon formed from the same spinning disk of material, and that would also mean that they could be formed from the same material. That's the Moon formation theory that I believe.
boi just said little satelite. THAT THING IS ABSOLUTELY HUGE FOR A MOON
You made Kerbin with its two moons, Mun and Minmus!
you forgot the effects of the stellar gravitational influence and weather or not the proto earth surface was molten. if the planet surface was molten then the impact energy would be more stable, so much so that it could have maintained some velocity to establish orbit.
If we had a 99% accurate physics sim we could run test after test on quantum computers to find the highest sucsess rate via changing everything from element makeup to fineite density. You'd need a really really indepth simulator that goes as far to calculate even the atomic, chemical properties. It would take millions, maybe even billions of tests.
0:00 - 0:02 "Welcome to the moon" I might start crying T_T
wut
It is a comment from 4 years ago, I can't remember very well why I wrote this way, but maybe it's because I was playing To the Moon T_T
have you seen pluto's biggest moon
Minewijn Pluto is mostly seen as a binary system.
Mikau Zetto he? Pluto in a planet not human

Good job.
Could you recreate an Ice moon hitting Earth? This is my hypothesis and it answers a lot of questions. How Earth cooled, why the collision didn’t completely destroy both bodies, and how life was brought to earth as well as water.
Scientists just found out our water originated in the outer solar system
What if they found out Neptune or Uranus sniped earth and actually did form moons
Thank you
Maybe the moon was ejected at higher than escape velocity, took it's own orbit around sun, and was recaptured later?
After the Thea Collission Earth had a ring out of which the Moon congealed
I believe that in order to get a result that is similar to what happened you should do this in a solar system with 20 or so planets bc at the time the solar system was the place to be for smaller and larger object's... just a thought
awesome video man love it :)
This is really cool.
Or maybe a proto - planet or a really small dwarf planet went in earths orbit and stayed there owo..
:// 14% Of the us population is athist.. And i dont even know if theres a god or no. Lol
+Night Gazer But it was made by god a god called Gabe Newell
that would not explain why it is made up of mostly the same stuff as earth and why the time the rocks were molten were similar to earths.
launch pluto at earth at 100 km/s
This game would be great with hopes and dreams as the background music
12:53 we still have two moons :/
this is what I'm looking for
I have this game and it was fun
The velocity issue is miss thought if the planets were on a similar orbit what if proto earth actually caught up with Theia instead of the other way around as when the collision occurred Theia which was travelling at a slower speed so when the masses collided the remaining bits of Theia would gave been attracted towards the largest mass Proto Earth and over time the ones which found a stable orbit would have created a small orbiting body and over billions of years its just grew in mass by the amount of impacts as we can see on the surgace of the moon
Wouldn't the Sun have a large effect on the collection of the fragments, making them into satellites? For instance, the fragments wouldn't just fly off, they'd still be pulled by the sun
I feel that the sun and its gravity had a role to play in the theia-protoE collision and also in the actual moon creation
but I may be wrong, i'm not an astrophysicist
