[@williamrutherford1873]

If it ever happened…

[@Daneelro]

As a trained astronomer, I can confirm that this CGI rendering is rather poorly done from a scientific viewpoint, and shows only a few aspects of the collision correctly (those being the pre-impact distortion of Thea and the white-hot collision point). The real event would indeed be powerful beyond the CGI renderer's imagination. A few choice effects to consider: That distortion of Thea would go along with earthquakes stronger than anything humanity ever experienced and the activation of volcanoes. Instead of rocks levitating and the surface breaking up into city-sized blocks that magically stay together, Proto-Earth would suffer a similar deformation with the same side effects. The collision would send an even stronger earthquake across both bodies, crushing every rock, reaching every part in hours, but still before the collision is over. (Would an astronaut stand on the surface, these tremors would throw him around with several Gs, likely killing him before any of the other effects arrive.) Meanwhile, at a slower speed, a fireball would travel out from the collision spot, eventually enveloping everything, melting all the remaining crust. Meanwhile, the collision would progress. But don't picture two rocks smashing into each other, imagine two drops of water. The collided planets will morph into a complex blob of lava, the majority of which will eventually (after several hours) regain a ball shape (Earth), while other parts will shoot outward like a spray of water, and a blob in that spray will coalesce into the Moon. This is the big picture, but parts of that lava blob spray will coalesce into temporary larger blobs that fall back on Earth or onto the Moon, other parts coalesce into billions of small and smaller asteroids and rock and dust that rain on the bigger bodies.

[@Daneelro]

@@williamrutherford1873 I suspect your scepticism is rooted in religious fanaticism or some other form of active anti-science views, but it not: this is pretty much settled. The main reason is that there is no other explanation for the special composition of the Moon: its surface rocks are chemically very similar to the Earth's surface rocks while it lacks a major metallic core like all the rocky planets. If the Moon had formed in orbit around Earth, or elsewhere in the Solar System, it would have more metals. In addition, there are fundamental problems with both alternatives. For the version of the Moon forming in orbit around the Earth at the birth of the Solar System, it's very very unlikely that something this big could assemble in a stable way this close to the parent body. For the version of the Moon forming elsewhere, for the Earth to capture it, you need a very unlikely constellation: the Moon would already need to be partnered with a similar-sized partner, which would then be ejected in a three-way interaction with Earth.

BROOO, the CGI is just so well made with amazing physics. I like how the gravitational fields interact causing loose rock to float to a stable point and Theia turning into an E G G

[@hitmanabhi007]

There is even higher level CGI which is currently unmatched for space videos. Just look youtube channel of Melodysheep. Probably the best channel of all time.

[@Daneelro]

WHAT!? The CGI might _look_ amazing, but it is absolutely unscientific. The issues that bothered me start with the two things that impressed you: Rocks would not float up. Why would they? For rocks to float up, Thea would need to have a stronger gravitational force on the surface of the Earth than the Earth itself. What would happen to Earth instead would be a similar deformation as what happens to Thea. As for that deformation, the egg shape is roughly right, but even the side opposite the Earth would get somewhat elongated, and of course Earth would also distort similarly. What really bothered me was the crust of Thea breaking up like an egg shell and all those big slabs of rock. However, on the scale of planets, the crust is not like a thick egg shell, but more like milk skin, it won't have rigidity to hold together blocks tens or hundreds of kilometres across. So, if you want to picture the collision of Earth and Thea, on first order, forget about the crusts, and picture two drops of water colliding. That makes the final stages of the CGI simulation wrong, too: instead of debris floating around two half-cracked solid bodies, you would see seriously disturbed blobs of lava, eventually with jets shooting out in some directions, and debris forming only when those fly out to be thinned out, cool & break up. Now, what _would_ happen to the crust of the two planets? First, an extremely strong earthquake would travel out from the collision point on both planets. Instead of splintering them like an eggshell, all rocks would be cracked at a much smaller scale. These earthquakes would travel out at multiples of the speed of sound in air, but that would still take about an hour around Theia (and longer around Earth), not a few seconds as on that dumb simulation. However, travelling slower than the earthquake but not stopping either, the fireball from the collision point would eventually envelop the entire surface and melt the entire crust of both planets. At that point, you would literally see just blobs of lava, which I described as first approximation before.

Stop arguing. I don't hear anyone asking how humans became an advanced civilization in Star Wars despite it being far, far away and long long ago. "It's the reason habitable life exists" cool, let's imagine another celestial body hits Earth and brings Theia into stable orbit, heats up their cores, brings the neccecities of life on both planets (debris or smth, idk use your imagination) and now we can pretend have life on both planets!

@Ale Zuvic but what if they just ended up a binary system? Ik there would be volcanoes and stuff, and heat from tidal forces would be insane, but it'd be cool if they both just ended up habitable instead. This was just a scenario I imagined it doesn't have to make sense just go with it, I know what gravity and tides are.

[@neonnemesis3267]

If they somehow never collide we almost certainly wouldn't be here, Earth would be smaller without Theia's mass and no moon. Less mass means less gravity, no moon means that the Earth would tilt heavily, ironically if Theia hadn't collided with Earth we wouldn't have our current 23.4 tilt and would normally lead to having no season but without the moon the Earth would tilt uncontrollably which means violent and unpredictable weather. Also I'm no sure on this one but iirc Theia's impact is the reason why our core still remains pretty hot, so if our core had cooled down without Theia's impact it means no electromagnetic shield for Earth which means no protection from the sun's deadly rays which means bye bye atmosphere and water since they evaporate like how it happened to Mars. If that happens to us it would also happen to the smaller Theia so instead of one habitable planet with a uninhabitable moon you have 2 lifeless barren rocks.

[@bboi1489]

@Neon Nemesis It's a what if scenario, anything can happen, stop being a bummer. Maybe some other planet came and hit our core and maybe that's what makes Theia in orbit as opposed to a crash course. Bam now we tilt and have seasons, and a habitable moon see how fun this can be?

Technically speaking theia is only a theory and it is unlikely it can ever be proven and should not be shown as a fact until it is actually a fact. But got to admit id still watch it regardless and using morgan freemans voice was a good idea. Something about his voice is just relaxing to me

[@aurorajudith-ramirez7389]

The same can be said about the biblical God. Yet we still believe because it's our faith.

[@aurorajudith-ramirez7389]

Science in that way, can be very similar. There's multiple studies that are literally based on theories but have real life formulas and properties that can be deemed as evidence.

[@robertshockley3]

True but it is the most mathematically sound. As well as the materials brought back from the moon. Think Budweiser and Bud light. Both are the same. Just one is lacking the full volume.

First time I’ve ever heard of earth having a sibling planet, let alone crashing into it

[@andydrew105]

Some theories say it was a rogue planet. So when nasa went to the moon they found Earth's crust on the moon.... Something cataclysmic would have had to have happened to fling land mass 200k miles away from earth to the moon while also beating Earth's gravity to try to keep its own crust connected. The moon is the remnants of theia and earth that didn't not combine to make the actual earth reformation.

I really really hope that afterlife is really exist, and if i ever to heaven my first wish would be to watch all of those gigantic event in the beginning and the end of our universe.

[@nick_0]

this is so sad to see this puny human hoping and praying he could live past his the physical bounds constrained by the natural laws, hoping he could see billions of years transpire and gain access to all the knowledge of the universe. it's funny knowing how futile it realistically is

[@DabaksolGuardPost]

@Nick It's so funny to see this ignorance human being is so narrow-minded. Thinking that we had a limit on human civilization. Just like those who think that man can't fly because of natural law in a few hundred years ago, yet we managed to put man on the moon and back just in a few decades ago. Of course there will be no end in the exploration of the infinite. But it's just stupid to say all that exploration is futile.

[@nick_0]

@@DabaksolGuardPost i never said that exploration was futile, and by the way, an observer that recognized that the same natural laws that allowed birds to fly would be very possible to exploit given the right shape and speed; not really analogous to a brain experiencing the universe's complexities post mortom. does it make sense that an energy pattern as complex as consciousness could persist beyond its delicate homeostasis only found in the host organism? we can see flight everywhere, where else do you a sentinet observer witnessing all of time and space in nature? it just isn't rational

[@DabaksolGuardPost]

@Nick Rationality is an overrated virtue. Thousands years ago, men believed that the earth was flat because things went down. Then Greek comes with the idea that the earth is a sphere. Of course, it's disapproved and looked at as irrational until Newton comes with gravitational theory. He even made a complicated equation to explain how mass had attraction force that become universally accepted heory. But even that knowledge that had complex proves and made our understanding of the universe become rational is ultimately proven "wrong" when Einstein comes with the explanation that gravity happens because of the warping of space time that until now is preferred by scientists. You say that consciousness is impossible to be alive after death, let alone trancend into an afterlife. Yet scientists are discussing the feasibility of Cryonics, downloading consciousness, or even duplicating the brain. Of course, it's met with skeptism. I myself even didn't truly believe would we be able to achieve it before the earth is perish. But the dream is living on because of faith. Just like einstein had "faith" in his synchronization convention, even though if you had interest in relativity theory, you may wonder, "Is it?" But my faith is beyond just a consciousness after death. It is a way of me filling the enormous gap in the unexplainable thing in the universe by having faith that "maybe there is a higher being out there" that can explain how and why everything is happening. How the universe can expand into nothingness after Big Bang, how our universe will end, what is happening before and after the universe exist, and many other things that we dont know or we claim we know. A faith that we had purpose and not just a random stardust coincidence. A faith that i chose to believe no matter how irrational it is. A faith that i believe among a million other faiths that contradicts each other. I know my chance of being right is slim, but so does the chance of life to thrive on this tiny and irrelevant planet. Yet, we managed to build a wonderful civilization as a species in the search of truth. My comment above is a statement from me that "I know nothing, i really hope there is someone's who can show and explain to me." While your reply is interpreted by me of you saying, " i know many things, and what you said is virtually irrational and impossible. "
