Our moon is the largest satellite in the solar system when compared to the planet it orbits. Bigger than Pluto, our Moon has been a stabilizing factor for the axis of rotation of the Earth, greatly decreasing Earth`s wobble as it circles the sun. Without our large moon, the Earth would experience dramatically increased climate changes that would make life as we know it improbable. There are various theories about how the Moon was created, but recent evidence indicates it formed when a huge collision tore a chunk of the Earth away.
