Why you have a moon?
why you no use grammar? The Earth has a moon because while our planet was still a giant ball of boiling liquid metals, inhospitable for any form of life, a massive meteor hit it. This meteor tore massive amounts of liquid rock off the face of the Earth, most of which remained close enough to remain in orbit of our planet. This liquid soon piled together, as water on glass when two droplets get to close together. After rotating around the Earth, this ball eventually became circular, due to gravity, and hardened. And that is how the moon came to be.
How large was the Russian meteorite of 2013?
The exact size of the Chelyabinsk meteor is unknown because once it hit the earth it broke into many pieces the only measurements that were given were done through pictures taken in which scientists gave it a 2-kilometer-diameter, estimates range from 12,000 to 13,000 metric tons (yes that's right heavier than the Eiffel tower) and measuring from 17 to 20 meters. it was the largest thing to impact earth since the 1908 meteor landing in Siberia known as the Tunguska Event.
How did the world first start?
Answers contributed by various WikiAnswers users:Our world began as material gathered in an accretion disk surrounding our newly formed sun.God made the world and he later created humans.I think a good theory on this is that a meteor hit the earth when no life was upon it...With that huge meteor hitting the ground at such a fast pace...Hytrogen and 2 oxygens where forceably mixed together creating water. I'm not sure how the atmposphere came to be but it might of been related to the meteor. After the everything started turning into cycles (rock formations...Water cycle...ect.) life began. It didnt first start out as humans...Thats ALOT later. We humans started out as almost ape people...Evolving into what we are today. What is it called that means "smart man or ape or somthing".I think also it depends on what religion you are.
How many days till the world ends?
This depends on your religion. If you are Christian, you believe that Jesus will come at the end of time, but it never states exactly when he will come. Also, the earth won't end for at least 1 million years. There is a VERY small chance that the earth will get hit by a giant meteor or something in like 2016.

Could Pluto be destroyed by a comet?
No, Pluto is too large to be destroyed by a comet. The comet would just hit and leave a crater on Pluto's surface. Also, comets move quickly when they're close to the sun and slow down a lot when they're in the outer solar system near Pluto. So, any comet that hits Pluto would be moving pretty slowly.
Is it True that Pluto use to be Big?
Yes, but a meteor hit Pluto and a small part of Pluto went flying off and landed in our Solar System.
Why do some asteroids leave there orbit?
They could be knocked out of orbit by being hit from a comet, or a 'rogue' asteroid that's not part of the asteroid belt.
Where was the last asteroid hit on earth?
There was one significant asteroid impact in 1908 - the Tunguska event. It is possible that smaller asteroids hit Earth after that. There was a smaller asteroid/meteor impact more recently - the Chelyabinsk event in 2013.
