Coming soon to "Cosmic Journeys." Earth, over its 4.5 billion year history, has been pummeled by asteroids, eroded by wind and rain, covered over with flowing lava, wrinkled and gouged by shifts in its crust.

Most traces of its distant past have long since been destroyed. But there is a place where clues to the early history of our planet are still largely intact.

The moon...

Scientists have been reconstructing its history by scouring its surface, mapping its mountains and craters, and probing its interior regions.

What are they learning about our own planet's beginnings, by going back in time, to the mysterious "Birth of the Moon."

  • My theory for why the far side of the moon is rougher and covered by more craters is that it is not protected by the earth from asteroids.

  • 1. Asteroid hits earth

    2. Debris form moon

    3. /documentary

  • @Justas923 what I am talking about is science method. Scientists believe only in temporary theories. Maxwell theories were wrong (even if results were correct, theory behind them was not). Newtons teories are wrong the same and they was redefined by Einstein. Right now - Einstein's theories are in danger since scinetists in LHC "found" (they need to confirm that) neutrinos traveling faster than light. There is not proven right - we just don't know enought to find our mistake.

  • @SpaceRip Can't wait to see the full version keep the good info coming.

  • @ mancam, you're an idiot.

  • The moon is actually a giant alien spaceship disguised as a moon so that our alien ancestors can keep an eye on us. All the craters and shit on the moon's surface is fake and made by them to fool us. My grandpa told me that and i'm sticking with it. The Illuminati know this and that is why humens never went to the moon and never will. The moon landing was faked too. They waching us all the time.

  • @Tholdrinn Give an example
