The Moon was put in place so asteroids could draw pretty space flowers over us and I think that's beautiful.
#also fun fact#the moon is made up of the same basaltic composition as the earth#because when earth was still Young and Hot(TM)#a Mars's sized object literally BODY-SLAMMED into proto-Earth and sheered off a SHIT ton of surface and sub-surface material#which all coalesced into the Moon#she wasn't just a knight the Earth captured#she is a silent and beautiful guardian cut from the same block of marble as the Earth#the Moon is Earth's daughter and unwavering protector#shielding her mother from those who seek to do her harm and keeping her warm by the subtle but still visible hugs she gives her#I'm talking about tidal forces#the moon literally squeezes the earth#i have a lot of feelings about the moon leave me alone
