This is a good one. I really enjoy the mental imagery that comes along with this.
There are a few theories for this one but there is only one that makes sense to me and I honestly don't understand how the other theories can have any amount of support if they are being considered rationally. One theory is that the Moon formed independently of Earth in an Earth orbit during the formation of the solar system, another is that the Moon formed independently of Earth elsewhere in the solar system its formation and was captured by Earths gravity well and settled into a stable orbit. I don't subscribe to either of these theories.
