The moon has been filled with many mysteries for thousands of years and scientists have always been trying to hide these secrets of the moon. We all know that the moon is the satellite of our earth.

 Whenever it comes to Chandra, we connect him with the Puranic story. Whenever someone asks how the moon was born, you will get most of the answers according to the legend. But in today's article, we are going to tell you how the moon was born? How a body was added as an earth satellite? Was it part of the earth already or did it come from outside? Along with all these answers, if you are going to know about the complete information and interesting facts of the moon, then let's begin.

How did the moon originate?

The beginning of the existence of our moon was about 4.5 billion years ago. Initially, when our solar system was being formed, this was not the same as today. Then our Sun was born due to a big explosion. Due to the birth of the sun, the particles which were present among themselves began to meet and in this way, all the planets of our solar system came into existence in turn.

Similarly, our Earth was also formed and after this many bodies were also floating in space which collided with some other gravitational force. In the same way, a big body passed close to the earth due to the gravity of the earth and started orbiting the earth, which we call the moon.

Some studies showed that when Earth was born, the Earth collided with a body as large as Mars. And because of this collision and friction, the moon was born. Scientists named this body which hit the earth named "Thea". They spread energy in the space filled with the collision with the earth. After this incident, it took about 1 year for our moon to be formed. Its crust was very similar to that of the earth because it originated from the earth itself. This process of moon formation was named as Giant Impact Hypothesis by scientists.

Amazing facts about Moon

1. So far only 12 people have been able to visit the Moon. After 1972, no unmanned spacecraft has reached the moon to date.

2. Lunar is only 27% of the size of the Earth.

3. If the moon disappears, instead of 24 hours on the earth, only 6 hours will be left.

4. Do you know that India first discovered water on the moon? Before this, many people believed that there could be water on the moon, but no one had discovered it.

5. There are about 181 satellites in our solar system, in which the moon is the fifth largest body.

6. You will be surprised to know that when Nil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin took their first steps on the moon, the footprints of his feet which were on the moon are still present today and will remain for millions of years because the wind on the moon was present. There is no one who can erase this mark.

7. Do you know that only 59 percent of the moon is seen from the earth?

8. Do you know that Chandra's weight is 80 times less than the Earth? And we can have 9 moons on our earth.

9. The gravity of the moon is equal to that which is why you cannot do a jump here, you will start swimming. The moon has 6 times less gravity than Earth. For this reason, we can easily jump around there.

10. The weight of the moon is about 81 billion tons.

11. Every year, the moon is going about 4 centimeters away from the earth, due to the arithmetic of this math, 50 billion years from now, the moon will complete the rotation of the earth in 47 days, which is now doing 27.3 days. But it is almost impossible to happen because after 5 billion years our earth will also be destroyed along with the sun.

12. You will be surprised to know that in 1950, America wanted to destroy the moon with nuclear weapons so that it can show its power to the world.

13. If we talk about the area, then the area of ​​the moon is equal to Africa.

14. Although the moon is cold but its illuminated part reaches about 180 Celsius and the rest is up to -153 Celsius.

 15. The sky always looks black on the moon.

16. The first scientist on the moon is Neil Armstrong, who reached the moon in 1969, the name of the last known scientist is Gene Cernan who went in 1972.

17. NASA wants to build a space station on the moon, that is why by the end of 2019, they can send scientists to the moon again.

18. Due to the gravity of the moon, tides and greens keep coming in the sea.

19. If you try to go to the moon by rocket, it will take only 13 hours.

20. The moon does not have its own light, so if there was no sun, we could never have seen the moon because only the light of the moon is visible due to sunlight.

21. The moon looks round when seen from the earth, but in reality, it is shaped like an egg.
