The oddities of the moon

The moon is a strange object and satellite of the Earth in every sense. Let's take a closer look at the facts.

1. The moon is a natural object

Our companion has enough oddities.

A satellite too large for the Earth and could not be formed together with the Earth. It is possible that A. Stepanenko is right (

chispa1707) Is the core of the dead planet Phaethon, the fragments of which are the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. But how did the Earth manage to capture this core into its orbit? And the core must be heavy. And the Moon is clearly not that massive. From this version, we turn to the version about the artificial transportation of this planet to the Earth. At the same time, the Moon was given unique parameters of its rotation around its own axis and around the Earth (the periods are equal).

There is a version by Valentin Pavlov that the inner planets of the solar system and the moon were previously in orbit around Saturn, its satellites, link

Lunar craters - perhaps not from falling asteroids. I believe that these are funnels from its degassing. Like frying holes in a pancake. Argument: Almost all lunar craters are circular. But all meteorites and asteroids cannot fall strictly perpendicular to the surface, most of them will be tangential and there will not be such an amount of round craters.

There is one thing. At very high falling velocities, the surface of a solid, with whom the object collides, behaves not like a solid, but like a liquid. If you shoot a gun into the water at an angle and shoot the process with a camera at a high frame rate per second, and then view it with slowdown, you will see: a round-shaped splash has formed.

The same is indicated by cumulative warheads: when a projectile explodes on the surface of steel armor, the speed and force of movement of the substance of the reverse jet stream simply splashes the steel. I think this version should not be discarded …

The moon reflects light at full moon across the entire surface of the visible disk. And according to the laws of optics, the edges of the disk should be dim and barely visible. The angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection - this law of optics is violated by the Moon. Although, scientists put forward a version that the whole thing is in the lunar soil. It is he who has such properties.

Everything is logical here in reflection and radiation after heating. But why does the Moon shine as a full disk in visible reflected light?

The rotation of the visible disk of the Moon counterclockwise was discussed here … In the comments, we figured out that this is not a mystery. But getting to the bottom of explanations is not easy for a non-specialist on this issue.

Librations of the Moon when moving in orbit

There is information about moonquakes - seismic vibration of the lunar surface.

Moonquakes are much weaker than earthquakes and occur less frequently, but they can be up to 5.5 on the Richter scale (an earthquake of this magnitude can damage buildings). The vibrations caused by shallow moonquakes usually last over 10 minutes, while the vibrations caused by earthquakes last only one to two minutes.

The study of the Moon by seismometers was carried out during the space expeditions "Apollo-12", "Apollo-14", "Apollo-15" and "Apollo-16". But since the flights of Apollo themselves are questionable for many, then this information may turn out to be at least incomplete, or even generally unreliable.

There are concentrated metallic masses on the Moon that create gravitational and magnetic anomalies of the Moon - "mascons". (According to the latest data, under the lunar surface there are five huge objects ranging in size from 8 to 22 kilometers. Some of them were identified in the infrared range by the European research satellite "COSMIK LEB" in 1999

Commonly known oddities of the moon:

- Almost perfectly circular trajectory of the moon around the earth. Almost round moon shape.

- Perfect coincidence of the rotation of the Moon around its axis and rotation around the earth, as a result of which we see only one side of the Moon.

- Perfect match of the size of the moon with the size of the visible solar disk from the earth. For this reason, we see the so-called corona in a solar eclipse.

- With those dimensions and that distance from the Earth, the Moon should have a very low density, but the depth of the meteorite craters indicates a rather dense composition, which with such a size of the Moon would make it much heavier, and hence the distance from the Earth should have been greater.

Take a look here on the list of spacecraft ever launched to the Moon, their purpose, achieved-not achieved results and the result. It looks like the moon has something wrong with gravity. There are so many cases of hard landings and loss of spacecraft, inability to enter lunar orbit, failures in obtaining artificial lunar satellites from spacecraft. Another interesting fact: 60-70s of the 20th century. - it's just a boom in the study of the moon. What's this? Race for the USSR and the USA to conquer our satellite? 1976 - the last flight of our apparatus "Luna-24". Then there was a complete lull until 1990. The Luna spacecraft delivered about 300 g of the lunar soil to the Earth. There would be more, if not the constant failures of lunar landing vehicles.

At the moment, the LRO, a pair of ARTEMIS satellites and the Chang'e-5T1 service module remain operational in the lunar orbit. For 58 years of exploration of the Moon, 110 missions were sent to it by 6 different countries, of which 52 failed.

Here is a story about the second stage of lunar exploration with the participation of other countries such as Japan, China and ESA (European Space Agency). But there are no more photographs, much less video of the lunar surface. There are mostly monochrome images from the 60s and 70s on the web.

Here's an interesting fact:

Have you seen detailed pictures of the Moon taken by the Hubble telescope anywhere? Yes, also such an event as the collision of a spacecraft with the Moon? Or the Apollo landing sites? With such detail that no one would have any doubts: were the Americans on the moon or not ?! Why is all this not shown and declared as achievements of modern technologies?

2. The moon is an artificial body

If you add up all the oddities of the Moon, then the monogeous will even conclude that this is an artificial body, or at least it was dragged to the Earth. Perhaps from the orbit of Jupiter, Saturn, where there are many moons of this size. Terrestrial planets like Venus do not have satellites, and Mars does not have such large ones.

Some esotericists report that inside the moon there is equipment that makes earthlings a mystery. The deep book of Pyatibrat, as an example. But this is all unprovable.

In conclusion, I recommend watching these videos. In them, the strangeness of the moon is shown in all its glory and in accessible language:
