Which planet has more water than earth?
There is no planet in the solar system which has more water than earth. Europa (a moon of the planet Jupiter) is thought to have a liquid ocean under a mantel of ice, but this moon is no larger than our own moon.

Where did Earth's moon come from?
It is believed to have formed around 4.5 billion years ago, following a collision between Earth and another planet (tentatively called Theia). This is thought to have thrown around half of Theia's mass into orbit around the Earth, which then coalesced into the Moon.
Is a moon larger than a planet?
No. The moon orbits the planet which means the planet is larger than the moon.
