New evidence for the Moons soft middle
Which brings up the question:
How many licks does it take to get to the mantle (tootsie roll) center of the moon ?

As I understand it the moon acts as a magnet; that is, its size and composition “magnet” attracting meteors that otherwise would crash into the earth.

Depends on the size of the tongue, and whether or not it’s a tongue of flame from an impact. :’)

Imagine if all those impact craters visible on the surface of the moon were on the surface of the Earth.
If earth had no air, water, or tectonic action, there would be just as many craters.
