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.

Will the moon be bigger than the earth today and cause natural damages?

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.

What event led to the formation of the moon?

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.


What if the moon fell directly on earth?
