The moon’s gravitational pull is responsible for the rise and fall of the ocean tides, but how did the moon come to be? It took a hundred million years after the solar system and its planets began to form before the moon actually sprang into existence.

One potential key to figuring out how we got a moon is to understand why Venus doesn't have one.
