This last hypothesis was proven correct and majority of the worlds population and scientist believe this is how our moon was coming to be. A theory that tells us that the moon was formed after a mars-like object hit Earth and erupted into little pieces of debris, which then over time orbited around and collected the little debris one by one forming the moon together. Some evidence that scientists found to prove this theory right is that the moon was composed of rocks with similar composition to Earth crust and mantle. Also, when the debris was orbiting the pieces could have come together because both moon and Earth rotates and revolves in the same direction. Therefore, overtime becoming one and creating the moon. Nevertheless, scientist over time had troubles finding reasons why this theory was incorrect, but they did. Debris from the impact would fall back down to Earth instead of remaining in orbit and forming the moon. This theory I believe is the most scientifically proven and how the Moon was created.
These theories that are listed are some of the ways people thought that the moon was created. Theories are an important idea that can be proven correct or incorrect, like a
