MOON , THE EXCEPTION IN THE SOLAR SYSTEM
Preface
Long before the theoretical conquest of the Moon by the Americans on 20 July 1969, when the Moon came again in the epicentre of our interest, people had begun to admire in the night sky our satellite. If however they knew the particularities that has our satellite, concerning the other moons of solar system, they would be supposed to face it as the bigger mystery of the sky. Let us see analytically why.
Relative size
The Moon with diameter 3.476 kilometres strikes very big in front of the 12.756 kilometres of the Earth in point that would be considered “Anomaly” in the rule of creation of all the other satellites of our solar system.
Certain exception constitutes the twin Plouto-Charon. Plouto however is not considered today by the scientists as a planet, after his characteristics show that it was not created with the gaseous exterior planets, but it emanates by the Trans-Neptunian bodies of Kuiper Belt and the sun attracted it some moment of its history. Characteristically the Ganymides, the bigger satellite of our solar system with diameter 5.268 km (bigger than Mercury) strikes dwarf in front of the 142.980 km of gas giant planet Jupiter.
The proportion of diameters Ganymides/Jupiter is 1:27.For the other satellites of Jupiter the relative diameters are:
Io 1:40, Europa 1:46 and for Callisto 1:30.
At the same time Titan, the giant satellite of Saturn and the second bigger satellite of solar system, has proportion of diameters with the planet 1:23.
For the Moon the proportion of diameters with the Earth is incredible. Roughly 1:4.

Our satellite is indeed enormous concerning the mother planet
SECOND PHOTO:Jupiter and the bigger satellite of our solar system, Ganymides (arrow). The apparent size of Jupiter is the same with earth’s one, in order to be direct comparable the relative sizes of Moon and Ganymides. Ganymides strikes dwarf in front of Jupiter, however has diameter 1, 5 times bigger than the Moon.
THIRD PHOTO:The Saturn and its bigger satellite Titan (arrow), the second bigger of the solar system. The apparent size of Saturn is the same with Earth’s one in order to be direct comparable the relative sizes of Moon and Titan. Titan however has diameter also almost 1,5 time bigger than the Moon.
The Mass of Satellites
At the process of creation of the solar system, the bigger portion of the initial mass of nebula collapsed ,due to the of gravity and shaped the sun. Smaller concentrations of mass were condensed locally and created the planets. Finally still smaller quantities of mass were condensed around the planets and created their satellite system. This is in general lines the process of shaping of planets and satellites and is in effect in the entire solar system.
The mass of Sun is 1,989 x 10^30 gr, mass of Jupiter is 1,894 x 10^27 gr, mass of Ganymides is 1,482 x 10^23 gr, mass of Saturn is 5,686 x 10^26 gr, mass of Titan is 1,346 x 10^23 gr, mass of Earth is 5,974 x 10^24 gr and finally mass of Moon is 7,348 x 10^22 gr.
The proportion of masses of Sun and Jupiter ,that is the biggest planet of our solar system, is 1047:1 The proportion of Sun and Saturn is 3498:1
The proportion of masses beteween Jupiter and Ganymides is 12780:1, while the proportion of Saturn and Titan is 4224:1.
But in order to have a direct comparison, we have to add the masses of all the satelites and create one theoretical one.
The mass of all the satelites of the Jupiter is ~3,9 x 10^23 gr. Hence Jupiter and its theoretical "unique" satelite , has proportion of masses ~4700:1.Similarly, Saturn's satelites have total mass ~1.45 x 10^23 gr.The proportion of masses between Saturn and its theoretical"unique" satelite is ~4000:1!!!
The proportion of masses between Earth and its unique satelite,the Moon, is incredible: 81:1. That is to say, in the transaction from the Sun to the planets and from the planets to their satellites, it exists again a unique anomaly: Moon!!!
Relative Distances
With regard to the distance that the satellites are found in orbit around their planet, the Moon is once again by far champion of the solar system.
Metis, the small satellite of Jupiter and nearest one, has diameter 40 kilometres and is found at a distance of 127.969 kilometres. The respective proportion of diameter of planet and distance of satellite is 1:0,90.The rest big satellites of Jupiter have the following proportions:
Io that is almost equal to the Moon has proportion 1:3. Europa has proportion 1:5, Ganymides has 1:8 and Callisto 1:13 Titan, Saturn’s bigger satellite, has proportion 1:10.
Our Moon has the incredible proportion 1:32!!!
The distances that a satellite is orbiting around the planet, has to deal also with the distance of safety that keeps the satellite from the planet in order not to by destroyed by the tidal forces. This distance is known as the limit of Roche, in honour of the great mathematician Eduard Roche (1820-1883) that first calculated it.
According to this, if a satellite or comet exceeds this distance and approaches the planet then it is destroyed. As an example, the comet Shoemaker - Levy 9 that in 1992 t entered in the limit of Roche of the planet Jupiter and was crumbled. After two years, in July 1994, the 24 pieces of comet as synchrony fall with spectacular way on the giant planet.
The limit of Roche for the twin earth-moon is 2,86 earth radius, that is to say 18.261 kilometres. If the Moon approaches or passes this distance, it will be dissolved by the tidal forces of Earth. The Moon however appears to be in a safe distance and will never approach to the earth beyond the safety point. It is found in the mean distance of 384.000 kilometres that is to say 21 times more far from the point that could cause it any problem. Consequently our Moon can feel absolutely safe for the upcoming five billions years at least from the side of Earth.
Indicatively the nearest satellites of Jupiter and Saturn are found approximately at the double distance than the Roche limit of the two gigantic planets.
The Moon in another perspective keeps, with very big difference, the primacy in the entire solar system. It could comfortably be found - as the unique satellite of Earth and consequently its nearest one - in a distance of 30.000 - 40.000 kilometres from the Earth, as proportionally happens with all the rest satellites of the solar system. For a certain unidentified reason and far from the procedure of formation of the other satellites, our moon was proportionally shaped at a big distance away from earth out of the data of the solar system :At a mean distance of 384.000 kilometres from Earth!!!
Apparent size of disks of Sun and Moon
Also completely "coincidentally'", for still once more, the apparent diameter of Moon is equal with the apparent diameter of Sun This has as consequence the amazing phenomenon of total solar eclipses.
Concretely the mean apparent diameter of Moon from the earth is: Arc of tangent of diameter /distance. That is to say Arc tan (3476/384000)=0,52 °.
Similarly the mean apparent diameter of Sun is Arc tan (1375/149900)=0,52 °.
That is to say the two disks appear precisely equal to the observer from the Earth!!!
Double planet
The eccentricity of Moon’s orbit is e=0,0549 The moon is orbiting on a level that it shapes with the ecliptic level a dihedral angle of 5o . Regularly it would be supposed to lain on the stellar Equator level of earth and thus to create a dihedral angle of 23,5 ° between the levels of rotation and the ecliptic one.
No one satellite of our solar system, at least those that were shaped by the accession disk of the planets, is not lain on the ecliptic level but on the stellar equator level of the planet.
The principle of creation of our planetary system but also valid for the corresponding satellite system of each planet, is the following:
When the disk of gas and dust is revolving, it resembles with the soup that mixes somebody with a ladle. The surface of the soup is revolving according to the movement of hand with the ladle. Thus and the fundamental cloud of gas and dust, when collapsed from the gravity, was revolving from westward to eastward. When therefore the "soup" was driving cold, the sun and the planets had taken shape almost in the same level that is called “ecliptic”. No planet escape from this rule except Pluto that proves for one more time that is not a planet but a body of Kuiper’s belt that was attracted by the sun. Exists however one and unique anomaly in the entire solar system, the Moon. Regularly should the moon, if was shaped from same cloud of gases with the planet earth, be revolving on the stellar Equator level of earth and not lain almost on the ecliptic level. That is to say when the matter began to collapse locally and to shape the planet earth, all the mass that was revolving around it - and theoretically it shaped the moon - would be supposedly revolving on the uranium Equator level of earth proportionally with the matter that shaped the planets and which were revolving on the uranium Equator level of the sun. The Moon however preferred the ecliptic level, outside from every physiologic process of shaping of satellites, attribute that has only the planets. That is to say in order to go back to the example of soup, we could say joking that parallel the soup was getting cold, the moon was flown outside by the saucepan and remained hovering above the cold soup!!!
Gravitational force
Isaak Ashimov, this big astronomer and writer of the previous century, had observed that the gravitational force of the sun to the Moon is double than the corresponding earth’s one. Indeed if we apply the Newton’s Gravitational law F = k x (m 1 x m 2)/R ² for earth-moon and sun-moon, the proportion of forces is 1:2
The differential attraction would be supposed to have extracted the Moon from that position, for some unknown reasons do not happen. Leads thus, this big scientist, to the conclusion that the Moon is not a physiologic satellite of earth, because “something” keeps it nailed in that position.
Through the pages of this book, it will be given, for the first time, a proper answer to this big mystery that even Ashimov could not explain for the simplest reason that he did not ever see the Far side of the Moon.
Synchronized rotation
One of the mysteries of behaviour of the Moon is that the satellite turns always the same side to the earth (Synchronized rotation).
That is to say, it is as the example that some observer turns around a table and looks continuously at the centre of the table where is found some other guy. The one that is in the centre of the table sees always the front view of the person that is turning around the table.
Thus and the Moon is revolving around itself at precisely equal time with its rotation around the earth: 29,53 days!!!
However exists a phenomenon that allows to the observers from the earth to see also a small area of the far side. This phenomenon is known as libration and has three components.
• The longitudinal libration, due to the fact that the Moon is moving more rapidly in the perigee, falls short little of its axial rotation. Thus it allows us to see 8 degrees from its Eastern side. Similarly when it is found in the apogee, it is moving little slower from its axial rotation. Consequently it shows 8 degrees from its western side.
• The latitudinal libration, due to the fact that the Moon is moving less rapidly in the apogee than its axis is rotated around itself. Thus the Moon shows individually 7degrees from its northern pole region and 7 degrees from its southern pole region, proportionally if it is found on or under the uranium Equator.
• The daily libration, due to the fact that the observes of the Moon from the earth equator, after 12 hours will have been moved westwards at one earth diameter. Thus other 1 degree of geographic lunar length is revealed to the human eyes.
Always when we look at the Moon we see, at the moment of observation, the 50% of its surface. However the percentage of surface of Moon that the people have seen with earth telescopes, if we the ecliptic level add up also the librations, it amounts to 59%.
Intelligent Placement?
Summarising all the coincidences with the position of our Moon in the sky, we could lead to certain astonishing conclusions. If they asked me to place a satellite around earth, with the knowledge that I have acquired from the solar system study, I would choose precisely the same parameters that follow also the Moon. That is to say placing it far from the Roche limit in order to ensure its eternal existence. But never in the astonishing distance of 21 times the Roche’s limit. Placing it surely on the ecliptic level and in synchronized orbit around earth. On the one hand in order to protect it from the fall of meteorites at least on one side and on the other hand in order to avoid the possibility of communication of the far side with the earth. I cannot however explain the reason why the Moon is found in such distance that causes total eclipses of the sun. Possibly creates this place that has for the observer from the Earth proportion of distance to diameter for both the Sun and the Moon roughly 100:1, a certain unknown to us advantage for itself the Moon. Perhaps something proportional with the Lagrange points, that is to say triple gravitational balance between the moon, the earth and the sun, that still we have not discovered. In the simplest case it happens what claims a lot of researchers. The residents of our satellite wanted to turn the human interest to the Moon at the duration of total eclipses and make them be puzzled for this astonishing phenomenon.
it is hard for me to believe that the Moon was found in this unique place accidentally.
• It was removed so the gravitational forces of earth slow down its axial motion and made it turning synchronized with its revolving motion.
• Completely accidentally it was removed for certain reasons of safety and creates total eclipses.
No, I exclude this possibility categorically.
Was the Moon created simultaneously with the earth and was placed by itself to this amazing point?
Was It possible the wandering moon in the solar system to be attracted from the earth before millions years and was selected, by the mother nature, to be placed in such special point?
Is It possible a meteorite in the size of Mars to had impacted with the earth and the materials after spreading around, y were condensed and created the Moon in this unique point?
This paradoxical and impossible event, the Astronomy accepts it as the logic "explanation" for the creation of Moon, after the two previous theories have enormous contradictions and almost have been excluded.
No one therefore of the three previous theories of creation of Moon cannot answer to the legitimate question why the satellite of earth selected an exceptional place in the sky and revolving synchronized?
Why only the Moon in the entire satellite solar system does have assembled these unique attributes?
Is it because "somebody”, has placed it in this ?
