Today man has reached the moon. But there are still many such mysteries about the moon and space, on which scientists are constantly doing research. Space is anyway said to be a world full of mysteries. But have you ever wondered what will happen if the moon disappears? Will life on earth also end if the moon does not exist? Today we will give you answers to all these questions.
Moon
Let us tell you that the moon has been orbiting the sun along with the earth for more than 4.5 billion years. According to scientists, the moon was born due to a Mars-sized object colliding with the earth. This scattered the debris in space and eventually came together to form what we now recognize as the moon. Today man has become so accustomed to the presence of the moon that it is difficult for us to imagine what life on earth would be like if it suddenly disappears. There are many religious beliefs on Earth about the moon.
Disappearance of the moon
According to Space’s report, Noah Petro, project scientist for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s (NASA) Artemis 3 moon mission, said that the moon could disappear due to very few astronomical events. Petro said that I think the only astronomical event that could make the moon disappear would be a large impact on the moon that would break it. Similar to the large impact that is believed to have created the moon.
Can the moon really disappear?
He said, however, that the chances of such an event occurring are very low. Because most of the large objects in the solar system have been absorbed by the sun and planets. According to Petro, the only other possibility would be that a rogue planet would enter the solar system from interstellar space, but the chances of it colliding with the moon are low.
What will happen to the Earth?
Now the question is what will happen to the Earth if the moon disappears. Let us tell you that if the moon disappears, many events that humans are accustomed to will change. According to Space’s report, the effect on sea tides, coastal ecosystems and marine life will be devastating. Additionally, tidal erosion on coastal edges will be greatly reduced. This will have a huge impact on the dispersion of heat and energy around the planet, changing the temperature and climate to a place that humans will hardly recognize.
