Nature lesson: we learn about the common theory (scientists can't say for certain but it's the strongest theory) of the origin of the moon - the moment a planet named Theia crashed into the Earth. A piece of the Earth broke off to form the moon. The theory is based on samples collected from the Moon's surface that match that of the Earth's.
