No. The Moon was probably formed in a titanic collision between the proto-Earth and another smaller planet perhaps as large as Mars, when the solar system was still very young and chaotic, about 4 billion years ago. There was no life there.
However, if there HAD been any life on Earth, a collision of that magnitude would certainly have exterminated it all, and entirely re-shaped our planet. Probably not a single trace of the original crust of the Earth would have survived.
No the formation of the moon could not have caused the Paleozoic Era to go extinct.
Moon helps in formation of tides. It too helps in water cycle.
The formation of a 'Moon-bow' is exactly the same of your conventional rainbow. The light 'from' the Moon passes through water molecules in the air.
the impact theory.
No, it will not.
No the formation of the moon could not have caused the Paleozoic Era to go extinct.
No. It was all ready there.
Although the exact cause of the moon's formation isn't known, the currently accepted cause was a giant impact called the Big Splash. This posits that a Mars-sized body collided with the newly-formed Earth sending material into orbit around it.
The moon crashing into the planet would be an extinction level event. The extinction of the dinosaurs occurred long before we were born.

The full moon tonight will be when the moon is at perigee, or the closest point in its elliptical orbit, so it should be a spectacular show. Although the gravity of the moon causes the tides, it is unlikely that the moon will cause any natural disaster. Keep in mind that the moon has been orbiting the Earth since its formation about 4.5 billion years ago, and there is no evidence that the moon has caused any natural disasters over that time period.
The moon gravity can cause tides.
Full moon,New moon,First quarter,Third quarter or Last quarter.
"What ARE the holes on the moon?" The 'holes' you see are not really that, but are craters caused by billions of meteor impacts since the moon's formation.
In previous models, the moon either formed concurrently with Earth in its accretion disk, or was captured when its orbit crossed that of Earth's and was captured in Earth's gravitational field.
