Someone had made a simple computer simulation of colliding terrestrial bodies and found some combinations of planet sizes and relative speeds that fit very well with the current situation 4.5 billion years later. I read about it again more recently in Scientific American. >The math works; the geology works. I'm convinced. :) Question: Isn't there a possibilty that the moon was formed at the same time as the earth?
