Moon anomalies

[Techciple]

• The Moon does not have a magnetic field yet the Moon’s rocks are magnetized.

• The oldest rocks collected from the Moon are far older than any collected on Earth.

• Science has no idea where the Moon came from and how it was formed.

• Earth has tons of iron and the Moon has none. They (Earth & Moon) are alleged to have been created at the same time.

• We never get to see the dark side of the Moon from Earth.

• The Moon is so perfectly positioned that at a solar eclipse it looks, from Earth, the same size as the Sun.

• For you math nerds. If you divide the circumference of the Sun by that of the Moon and multiply by 100 you get the circumference of the Earth. Divide the size of the Sun by the size of the Earth and multiply by 100 and you get the size of the Moon.

• The Moon, Earth and the Sun are encoded with the unit of measurement known as the ‘ megalithic yard ‘. Discovered by Professor Alexander Thom when he made a detailed study of stone circles such as Stonehenge. The standard measurement is equal to 0.829 meters or 2.72 feet.

• Moon rocks have been found to contain processed metals, including brass and mica,and the elements uranium 236 and neptunium 237 that have never been found to occur naturally. Uranium 236 is a long-lived radioactive nuclear waste and is found in spent nuclear fuel and reprocessed uranium. Neptunium 237 is a radioactive metallic element and a by-product of nuclear reactors and the production of plutonium. How the hell did this stuff get on the Moon?

• Surface lunar rocks contain titanium, chromium, and circonium, which are all metals with refractory, mechanically-strong and anti-corrosive properties. Refractory metals are resistant to heat and to wear and could stand up to means of aggression.

• The placement of the Moon dictates the speed of the Earth’s rotation and the angle at which it rotates – 22.5 degrees from vertical. The angle creates the four seasons because of the way that the planet faces the Sun during its annual orbit.

• The Moon has a major influence on the tides – far more than the Sun. We all should know this by now. And with the Human body consisting of 70% water it definitely has an influence on us. Maybe that explains werewolves and an increase in emergency room visits during the full Moon.

• The Moon dictates so much of our relationship with time, and the term “month” is really Moonth, a period based on the cycles of the Moon.

• There are many legends around the world that describe the moon as a “chariot” of gods and goddesses.

cool thats some wierd stuff rite there for sure kinda makes ya go mmmuuuummm

I gotta say, the part about the eclipse is well known but very unlikely to happen. It's weird when you think about it: From the Earth, both Sun and Moon look exactly the same size.

I didn't know about processed metals on the Moon though, I'll have to research it further when time permits. Did some of you guys ever looked into this?

Has the new movie Apollo 18 caused a renewed interest in the moon?

•The Moon does not have a magnetic field yet the Moon’s rocks are magnetized.

In one new proposal, Christina Dwyer of the University of California, Santa Cruz, and her
colleagues suggest that the moon's solid-rock middle layer, called its mantle, stirs up its liquid iron
core. The researchers think this happens because the moon's core and its mantle rotate around
slightly different axes, and the boundary between them is not quite spherical, so their relative
motion causes the fluid to mix around.

The strength of this stirring is determined by the angle between the core and the mantle, and the
distance between the Earth and the moon, because the tidal gravitational tug from the Earth causes
the moon's mantle to rotate differently than the core.

This model would explain why the moon used to have a magnetic field, but no longer does. That's
because the angle between the mantle and the core has narrowed over time, while the distance
between the moon and the Earth has widened, causing the tidal forces to steadily decrease. While
these forces used to be enough to generate a dynamo inside the moon, they aren't anymore.

Based on their calculations, the researchers estimate the lunar magnetic field might have lasted for
about a billion years, somewhere between around 2.7 billion and 4.2 billion years ago.

"Based on what we know about stirring, and everything we know about fluid motion, we can find
no reason that this would not work," Dwyer told SPACE.com. "All the flags are go, and now this
needs to be taken to the next level to get tested."

Dwyer said her research team had studied the basic scenario, but hopes that scientists who specialize
in modeling the complex physics of dynamos will now step in to investigate whether this could
explain what happened on the moon.

•The oldest rocks collected from the Moon are far older than any collected on Earth.

The rocks collected from the Moon are measured by radiometric dating techniques. They range in
age from about 3.16 billion years old for the basaltic samples derived from the lunar maria, up to
about 4.5 billion years old for rocks derived from the highlands.[1] Based on the age dating
technique of "crater counting," the youngest basaltic eruptions are believed to have occurred about
1.2 billion years ago,[2] but scientists do not possess samples of these lavas. In contrast, the oldest
ages of rocks from the Earth are between 3.8 and 4.28 billion years old.

The earth's crust recycles. The Moon has been hit by millions of meteorites older than the moon and earth.

•Science has no idea where the Moon came from and how it was formed.

It is just a theory but it would seem the do have an "idea".
Astronomers believe that the Moon was formed when a Mars-sized body smashed into the Earth, ejecting matter into orbit and lengthening our day to its present value of 24 hours. Until recently, however, estimates of much of the Moon is “impactor material” that came from this impactor object, as opposed to the Earth, have varied wildly - from 1 to 90%. Now, by comparing the compositions of lunar and terrestrial rock samples, astronomers in Germany have calculated that no more than two-thirds of the Moon is impactor material. Moreover, they estimate that the Moon must be at least 4.5 billion years old (C Münker et al 2003 Science 301 84).

•Earth has tons of iron and the Moon has none. They (Earth & Moon) are alleged to have been
created at the same time.

Almost all lunar rocks are depleted in volatiles (such as potassium or sodium) and are completely
lacking in the minerals found in Earth's water. In some regards, lunar rocks are closely related to
Earth's rocks in their composition of the element oxygen. The Apollo moon rocks were collected
using a variety of tools, including hammers, rakes, scoops, tongs, and core tubes. Most were
photographed prior to collection to record the condition in which they were found. They were
placed inside sample bags and then a Special Environmental Sample Container for return to the
Earth to protect them from contamination. In contrast to the Earth, large portions of the lunar crust
appear to be composed of rocks with high concentrations of the mineral anorthite. The mare basalts
have "relatively high iron values". Furthermore, some of the mare basalts have very high levels of
titanium (in the form of ilmenite).

•We never get to see the dark side of the Moon from Earth.

That's because at the present time the moon rotates on its axis at the same rate it orbits the earth. It hasn't always been this way and it won't always be but it will happen over millions of years.

•The Moon is so perfectly positioned that at a solar eclipse it looks, from Earth, the same size as the
Sun.

Yes, it is.

•For you math nerds. If you divide the circumference of the Sun by that of the Moon and multiply by
100 you get the circumference of the Earth. Divide the size of the Sun by the size of the Earth and
multiply by 100 and you get the size of the Moon.

It's close but what is your point?

•The Moon, Earth and the Sun are encoded with the unit of measurement known as the ‘ megalithic
yard ‘. Discovered by Professor Alexander Thom when he made a detailed study of stone circles
such as Stonehenge. The standard measurement is equal to 0.829 meters or 2.72 feet.

Please demonstrate this encoding you claim.

•Moon rocks have been found to contain processed metals, including brass and mica,and the
elements uranium 236 and neptunium 237 that have never been found to occur naturally. Uranium
236 is a long-lived radioactive nuclear waste and is found in spent nuclear fuel and reprocessed
uranium. Neptunium 237 is a radioactive metallic element and a by-product of nuclear reactors and
the production of plutonium. How the hell did this stuff get on the Moon?

Primordial radionuclides
Primordial radionuclides are left over from when the world and the universe were created. They are
typically long lived, with half-lives often on the order of hundreds of millions of years.
Radionuclides that exist for more than 30 half-lives are not measurable. The progeny or decay
products of the long lived radionuclides are also in this heading. Here is some basic information on
some common primordial radionuclides:
http://www.physics.isu.edu/radinf/natural.htm
Primordial nuclides Nuclide Symbol Half-life Natural Activity
Uranium 235 235U 7.04 x 108 yr 0.72% of all natural uranium
Uranium 238 238U 4.47 x 109 yr 99.2745% of all natural uranium; 0.5 to 4.7 ppm total uranium
in the common rock types
Thorium 232 232Th 1.41 x 1010 yr 1.6 to 20 ppm in the common rock types with a crustal
average of 10.7 ppm
Radium 226 226Ra 1.60 x 103 yr 0.42 pCi/g (16 Bq/kg) in limestone and 1.3 pCi/g (48 Bq/kg) in
igneous rock
Radon 222 222Rn 3.82 days Noble Gas; annual average air concentrations range in the US from
0.016 pCi/L (0.6 Bq/m3) to 0.75 pCi/L (28 Bq/m3)
Potassium 40 40K 1.28 x 109 yr soil - 1-30 pCi/g (0.037-1.1 Bq/g)

•Surface lunar rocks contain titanium, chromium, and circonium, which are all metals with
refractory, mechanically-strong and anti-corrosive properties. Refractory metals are resistant to heat
and to wear and could stand up to means of aggression

If you mean "zirconium" then yes, zirconium, titanium, and chromium are found on the moon, the Earth, and meteorites. Why is that a big deal.

•The placement of the Moon dictates the speed of the Earth’s rotation and the angle at which it
rotates – 22.5 degrees from vertical. The angle creates the four seasons because of the way that the
planet faces the Sun during its annual orbit.

The "location" of the moon "influences" the things you state. The axis angle may have been caused when the moon was formed in a galactic collision. If your implying divine intervention or intelligent design then placement and dictates may be the better terms.

•The Moon has a major influence on the tides – far more than the Sun. We all should know this by
now. And with the Human body consisting of 70% water it definitely has an influence on us. Maybe
that explains werewolves and an increase in emergency room visits during the full Moon.

The moon is closer to the Earth-far more than the Sun, fortunately, better to have the water pulled to and fro than boiled away. The second part of this I'm not gonna touch.

•The Moon dictates so much of our relationship with time, and the term “month” is really Moonth,
a period based on the cycles of the Moon.

The moon does provide a convenient way to measure and track time.

•There are many legends around the world that describe the moon as a “chariot” of gods and
goddesses.

What the Government really doesn't want you to know is

Somebody has a lot of free time..great research, though some of the dating and theories are disputed depending who you believe.

I look at the moon as being one of the key factors for life on Earth. Shortly after the formation of the Earth/Moon system, the moon was very close to the Earth. The resultant tides in the ocean were much bigger and washed a good ways inland. The recurring wet/dry environment seems like a stimulus that aided in the beginnings of life on Earth.
