Seems like something that massive would be affected by lunar cycles.
tides for sure, but the fundamental problem is that there is an upper bound of strength for materials. Molecular bonds only have so much strength, and they just don't have enough. And before some genius out there says something about jet engines or bumblebees and thinks they've made some sort of point, consider the periodic table is well known as is the strength of molecular bonds
Seems like something that massive would be affected by lunar cycles.
Imagine the logistics of the “Environmental Impact Study.”
