Learn the origin of the Moon at Worthy Brewing.

Learn the origin of the Moon from Astronomical Interpreter Tim Merrill. Merrill will discuss the most accepted scientific theory of the formation of our moon: the Giant Impact Theory.

Hear how a solar system might be formed the general solar system based on "accretion disc theory," where swirling gas and dust chaotically coalesces into planetary bodies via planetary collisions.
