Re: Moons
The earth's moon has quite a few unique features that have puzzled our scientists for quite a long time now. As was pointed out below, the ratio of the size of our moon to the earth is abnormally high as moons go. Truely our moon is a giant in our solar system. It rivals the gas giant's moons. There are a lot of other odd things about it like the fact that it always keeps one side facing the earth at all times as it orbits. Also, when one the Apollo missions set up a seismic station on the moon and then dropped part of the LEM back onto the moon after they left, the interior of the moon rang like a bell for hours, puzzling the hell out of the NASA geologists. There are also some other really, really strange things about our moon that cause the curious of mind to wonder..
