NASA‘s ’Evolution of the Moon’ Reveals Its Battered History in Less Than 3 Minutes

NASAs Evolution of the Moon Gives History of the Moons Development

Look up at the sky this evening. If you can see the moon, its characteristics are probably very familiar to you. The craters and other shadows never seem to change, but NASA research is telling us the moon wasn’t always full of mountains and valleys.

Thanks to its Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO), NASA has captured some of the most detailed images of the moon, which has led the agency to better understand of why it looks they way it does today. In honor of LRO being in orbit 1,000 days, NASA developed two videos about the moon‘s development from data made possible by the orbiter’s mission.

Watch the simulation of its billions of years of bombardment, which have given the moon the pocked characteristics we know of today:

Here’s a more in-depth, narrated tour of the moon:

NASA explains in a press release that the most common school of thought is the moon started as a ball of magma formed after a planet-sized object hit Earth. Right as the moon was cooling and its crust forming, the moon itself was hit, creating its South Pole-Aitken Basin, which NASA explains is one of the two largest proven impact basins in the solar system.

The moon‘s beating didn’t stop there. After magma seeped up through cracks in a series of volcanic activity and began to cool again, smaller objects battered it, eventually leaving us with the pockmarked, man-in-the-moon image.

LRO launched aboard an Atlas V rocket from Cape Canaveral, Fla., on June 18, 2009. Since then it has been collecting new measurements and an “unprecedented” view of the moon’s surface.

    All of science is the process of discovering the amassing beauty and profound wonder of God’s creation. And how did God create the heavens and the Earth? This video is an impressive animation based on what we have learned so far. For those of us who are visual learners, it is not only impressive but also imparts some understanding. I hope all science teachers can make this video part of their astronomy curriculum. I’ll have to research the carbon14 numbers for the numbers for the time compression of the video.

    It truly amazes me as to what qualifies for science these days.

    I can’t tell you with certainty if the earth is billions, trillions, or thousands of days old. To do so would be a speculation based on faith. Religions are honest about needing faith to believe, while today’s science pretends to base everything on facts…these facts turn out to simply be guesses based on other guesses which is the same as faith.

    Is the universe eternal? To agree with modern science you must say yes.

      So you believe that the universe came from an infinitely small point that came to be in nothing, nowhere where time did not exist….It exploded, creating space, time & matter. It will continue expanding until it then will collapse on itself, go back to nothing & then start again. Oh wait… that’s a THEORY

      Just because you can measure SOME things doesn’t mean you have all the answers – which is the point. I would assume that someone who is learned with a “physics degree” would effin understand that.

      @ Johnny Cocheroo:
      Christians believe in the same thing as the Big Bang. They just call it the Word of God. The problem is, the Big Bang Theory posits real effects that can be tested. Biblical Genesis cannot be tested in any way. It just is.

      You’re not worried about scientists measurements being wrong. You’re worried about scientists measuring the wrong things. When Carbon-14 dating was discovered, it was just fine. It measured the recent time since death of living things. Being an asymptotic measurement, it got progressively less precise the farther back in time it went. That played into the Christian (not general Religionist, because few religions actually claim as short an existence as Christianity does) theory of the young Earth.

      But then radiocarbon dating was expanded to other isotopes found in other things and suddenly the decay curves were not so asymptotic until much, MUCH earlier giving rise to the idea that the Earth can ONLY be billions of years old and not millennia old as the religious dogma claims. THEN, the radio carbon dating baby has to be thrown out with the radiometric dating bathwater.

      https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Radiometric_dating

      Measuring the ages of dead matter is fine, just don’t go measuring the planet upon which they lived. Can’t go against the orthodoxy.

      Actually you are correct in referencing “heat death” which is part of the second law of Thermodynamics.
      https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Laws_of_thermodynamics

      In a nutshell, the first Law states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed. Therefore there is a fixed amount of energy in the universe. Where did it come from?

      The second Law states that the existing energy is becoming unusable or in a constant state of entropy.
      https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Entropy
      If the earth would have been billions or even millions of years old, the rate of entropy would not allow for the existence of life. One of 2 things would happen. 1. in order for current temperatures to be where they are today, it would have been too hot when life supposedly began for evolutionists. 2. If the temperature when “life began” was at a viable level, today there would not be enough viable energy to sustain life.

      There is so much more. Check out my username. Laws of probability, Genetics, and the fossil record all support and backs up the history of the Bible. In actuality, science refutes the popular THEORY of evolution. The Bible is a history book. The authenticity and reliability of which stands far and above that of any other book. It is TRUTH.

    The drift rate alone (moon drifting away from earth) proves 4.5 B is a lie. Back it up to 1.5 B years, the longest it could possibly be, based on drift rate, an the tidal pull would have decimated earth’s surface and killed off anything that might have evolved. Bottom line is that observed events (lunar drift) an unlimited time (most important element in evolutionary theory) gets you – “In the beginning, GOD created the heavens and the earth …” There is no viable theory proposed by evolutionists that stands up to observed facts, events and the laws of physics.

      My first thought as well. I had the chance to meet and chat with Dr. DeYoung last year. Very interesting man; well-spoken, but fanatical in his views. We discussed all sorts of Young Earth creationism theories. What struck me was his version of the scientific method; it wasn’t “look at the facts, then try to explain them,“ but ”we know God created the world; let’s find facts to back that up and ignore the rest.”

      If anyone gets a chance to attend a creationist meeting, and has the respect to keep quite and not antagonize the members there, I highly recommend it. The groups that actually have people with degrees in the relevant fields are fascinating.

(2) No other moon besides ours is shaped in such a nearly perfectly round form. (3) No other moon besides ours is perfectly situated between the planet and the sun so that perfectly observable solar eclipses occur (which allow scientists to observe the corona and deduce all manner of information about the sun, and other stars & also helped prove Einstein’s theories about gravity bending light) allowing humanity to discover many secrets of the universe just by paying attention.

    Since I’m making lists, I’ll just add that no other planet we have yet observed has life besides Earth (which teams with so many varieties that we are still discovering new ones).

      People make the assumption the moon was there because of Genesis, but Genesis isn’t talking about the moon when it refers to the lesser light, but that it’s talking about people who have low spiritual abilities.

      They are not just assuming or guessing why the Moon is there orbiting the Earth. They choosing the most logical reason using the available information to make a claim.

      “In the beginning God created the Heaven and the earth.” Cut story, and think – that part was done, space, and the earth were made. How long was it? Does it matter?
      “And the earth was without form and void, and darkness was on the face of the deep.”
      Cut story, and think – There was no Heaven and earth because it hadn’t been created (as in Heaven and earth fades away, and the Prophet Isaiah says he looked and the world was without form and void).
      “And darkness was on the face of the deep.” Meaning there was no high thought‘s in people’s minds with angels bringing fruit to the lord.

      Oh forget it, I’m going against hundreds of years of brainwashing, it would be much easier just to take those who are cold and hot.

      You should start thinking about what you need to pack – nothing.

      What do you mean brainwashing? I was just disagreeing with your comment. However you feel about science it is good to get the facts and debate about what is the most logical answer.

      http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giant_impact_hypothesis

      “The giant impact hypothesis is the currently favoured scientific hypothesis for the formation of the Moon. Supporting evidence includes: the identical direction of the Earth‘s spin and the Moon’s orbit, Moon samples which indicate the surface of the Moon was once molten, the Moon’s relatively small iron core, lower density compared to the Earth, evidence of similar collisions in other star systems (which result in debris disks), and giant collisions are consistent with the leading theories of the formation of the solar system…”

      You mean we’ve had to deal with liberals since the beginning? I don’t know about that… kind of ruins the intelligent design theory

    This is very cool. Every day you learn something new. What better way than about the Earth’s moon. What is the Moon, how does the Moon effect the Earth, etc. Science is awesome!

    The poor Moon still has emotional and physical scars from being battered. When will this celestrial abuse end, I demand we all show our support and Moon for awareness.

    Interesting video – at first I thought it was the aliens who make sure Pelosi and Reid do not leave the earth destroying their followers who were about to rescue them…
