Cool as a cucumber.

I was just reading that the moon was created when our planetary system formed by having a large hunk of planetary material slam into earth with such force that it knocked enough material out of earth to form the moon.
 
Awesome photos, Boyd. :)

Bob,

Did the article mention that this happened roughly 6,000 years ago on the fourth day of creation? Just curious.
Seriously, though, this is an awesome subject. Maybe we should get Ben to start a science forum. Kidding, Ben. :)
