Earth's Moon May Have Formed in Just 5 Hours After Giant Impact, Study Suggests

The Moon's formation has long been attributed to a giant impact between early Earth and a Mars-sized body called Theia. Now, researchers using advanced supercomputer simulations have proposed that this process may have been far more rapid than previously estimated—potentially taking only about five hours to complete.
