...and the lesser light to rule the night: Genesis 1:16
"Evolutionists say that our sun and its orbiting planets (i.e. our ‘solar system’) arose from a rotating gas/dust cloud approximately 4.5 billion years ago.
This is known as the ‘nebular hypothesis’, from Latin, nebula meaning ‘cloud’.
Some have suggested that the moon simply formed at the same time and sufficiently close to the earth to end up in orbit around it. This is known as the ‘condensation theory’. Just as a water droplet condenses from steam as it cools, so the moon is said to have ‘condensed’ from dust as gravity pulled tiny dust particles together into a big lump.
If this explanation were correct, however, we would expect the moon to be akin to a mini Earth, being made up of essentially the same materials.
The moon, however, is significantly less dense than the earth, and hence must be made up of different materials."
