A new paper disputes the widely accepted hypothesis that the Moon is the product of material thrown up when an object known as Theia smashed into the proto- Earth .
The paper compared the abundance of 70 elements in Moon rocks with their presence in Earth ’s mantle and crust.
They found a lack of elements that turn more easily to gas than lithium.
This indicates the Moon formed from the same material as the Earth , they argue.
The study is to be published in the Treatise on Geochemistry and a preprint is available on ArXiv.org. [H/T Anton Petrov].
