More evidence for the origin of the moon. The moon so close yet still so mysterious. There have been many theories as to how the moon came to be as we see it well I would like to add a few details to one of those theories. I proscribe to the impact theory and a few things that I have noticed to support this idea have come to my attention sometime in the past. When I look at the face of the lunar surface I see many features that stand out loud. It is said that the moon is tidally locked to the earth due to the moon having a thicker crust on its far side supposedly making it heavier and balanced favored on that side allowing the moon to swing its backside out and remaining there. If we look closely at the surface we see large darker arias known as maria large larva beds planes that occupied and reside 90 percent on the near side of the moon's surface these structures are relatively quite young to their surrounding arias. The Maria's was created by the largest of all the impacts that ever struck its surface have you ever wondered why most of all these structures are facing the earth well I believe they are the very reason in themselves and why such large impacts so late in time and why all on one side. This is the key to understanding the origin of the moon now if we have the beginning of the moon as two planetary bodies one glancing of the other placing mutch debris in orbit of the larger boddy now we have what mainstream scientists believe to be but it goes with little evidence or explanation for what we can see today. My theory, Now we have all this debris orbiting the red hot earth waiting to collect together and grow larger and larger it grows as the early moon begins to take shape as this newly forming planetary body orbits the earth it continues to grow collecting all the remnants of its original collision. Now the big surprise there were two objects forming one larger than the other and for the most part on opposite sides of their orbit. The moon is rotating rapidly as a result of its beginning and now at over 90 percent of its mass, the second largest body is on a collision course with its big brother as one chases the other and begin to feel the strain the smaller body begins to crumble and fall apart just moments before the big impacts. Large pieces of this smaller satellite crumbling rock the size larger than ever sean spread out and smash into the moon we see today. These impacts would have been relatively at lower velocity as it was a catch up game and not an inter stellar collision that took place. These very large pieces of debris sunk into the surface of the moon all on the one side and increased the mass of the lunar surface leaving their mark and allowing the side of the moon now with the greatest mass attract to the earth and setal into the tidal lock that we have today. With now only a very small amount of small orbiting debris left to pepper the new formation. Can you see this what do you think?.

Can you see this what do you think?.You seem to labouring under the mistaken belief that only one side of the moon faces the earth....
We do indeed only see on side of the moon

To a very good approximation, only one side of the Moon does face the EarthIt looks like this. Moon.JPG (66.53 kB . 700x692 - viewed 2546 times)Unless you are in the other hemisphere, in which case it's the other way up.It wobbles a bit, the effect is called libration.

The earth's oceans would act as grease, for the slippery earth, while moon began to coordinate with the movement of the water; tidal.
One implication of an early tidal lock between the moon and earth, is that the young moon would have had a hotter side, facing the earth, due to radiational heating from the close young earth. That hotter side of the young moon would stay molten longer. One might expect this see remnants of seas of molten material, left behind.
