That's about 1/10th the size of planet Earth

I disagree with this statement. "(754 miles) across" is about 1/10th the diameter of Earth. It is about 224 million cubic miles in volume while Earth is about 268 trillion cubic miles in volume (volume = 4/3 X Pi X radius^3). Earth has about 1,000 times the volume of this moon and is likely over 1,000 times the mass.
