The Moon
was formed about 95 million years after the birth of our Solar System, in a
collision that also settled the structure of Earth as we know it, according to
the latest attempt at dating that impact.
A study in
the journal Nature said the crash between an early, proto-Earth and a
Mars-sized object that dislodged what would become the Moon, happened some
4.470 billion years ago -- give or take 32 million years.
Apart from
creating our satellite, the event is also believed to have marked the final
phase of Earth's core formation from molten metals sinking to the centre from a
superhot surface.
Previous
estimates had ranged from an "early" impact about 30 million years
after the start of the Solar System, to a later one as much as 200 million
years after.
The Solar
System itself is known to be 4.567 billion years old thanks to accurate dating
of some components of meteorites -- the oldest materials to be found on our
planet.
Earth is
believed to have formed at some time during the first 150 million years.
Many
earlier age estimates had been based on measuring the rate of radioactive decay
of atomic nuclei found in rocks.
For the new
study published in the journal Nature, a team of planetary scientists from
France, Germany and the United States created a computer model of how dust and
rock accumulated in the early Solar System to form tiny planets called
planetesimals.
These grew
into "planetary embryos" that ended up as the rocky planets we know
today -- Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars -- through a succession of giant
impacts, according to the new model.
Each
massive collision allowed the planets to "accrete" or accumulate
matter. In Earth's case, the lunar impact would have marked its final major
growth event.
The team
also looked at the chemical composition of the Earth's mantle to trace the
amount of material the planet accumulated after the impact -- only about 0.5
percent of its total mass.
If the
impact had happened early in the Solar System's history, there would still have
been many free-floating planetesimals for the Earth to sweep up, and if it was
later, fewer.
The
evidence suggested Earth took 95 million years to form, "which confirms it
as the planet in our Solar System that took the longest to form," study
co-author Alessandro Morbidelli told AFP by email.

“.. Nuclear
Power Revealed
So let me
tell you what else they did. They just showed you what's wrong with nuclear
power. "Safe to the maximum," they said. "Our devices are strong
and cannot fail." But they did. They are no match for Gaia.
It seems
that for more than 20 years, every single time we sit in the chair and speak of
electric power, we tell you that hundreds of thousands of tons of push/pull
energy on a regular schedule is available to you. It is moon-driven, forever.
It can make all of the electricity for all of the cities on your planet, no
matter how much you use. There's no environmental impact at all. Use the power
of the tides, the oceans, the waves in clever ways. Use them in a bigger way
than any designer has ever put together yet, to power your cities. The largest
cities on your planet are on the coasts, and that's where the power source is.
Hydro is the answer. It's not dangerous. You've ignored it because it seems
harder to engineer and it's not in a controlled environment. Yet, you've chosen
to build one of the most complex and dangerous steam engines on Earth - nuclear
power.
We also
have indicated that all you have to do is dig down deep enough and the planet
will give you heat. It's right below the surface, not too far away all the
time. You'll have a Gaia steam engine that way, too. There's no danger at all
and you don't have to dig that far. All you have to do is heat fluid, and there
are some fluids that boil far faster than water. So we say it again and again.
Maybe this will show you what's wrong with what you've been doing, and this
will turn the attitudes of your science to create something so beautiful and so
powerful for your grandchildren. Why do you think you were given the moon? Now
you know.
This
benevolent Universe gave you an astral body that allows the waters in your
ocean to push and pull and push on the most regular schedule of anything you
know of. Yet there you sit enjoying just looking at it instead of using it. It
could be enormous, free energy forever, ready to be converted when you design
the methods of capturing it. It's time.
So in
closing, do you understand what you're seeing? You're seeing intelligent
design, quantum energy and high consciousness. You are seeing changes in Human
nature. You're seeing countries putting things together instead of separating.
You are seeing those who don't want war and instead want peace, good schools
for their children, safety in their streets and a say in their government. We
told you it was going to happen this way. I want my partner to teach these
things that I have said in his 3D lectures for awhile. Many won't be
able to know these things otherwise. …”
