By gathering together the major texts, papers, and events of the time, it provides a thorough chronicle of the paradigmatic shift in planetary science that arose from the notion that the Earth-Moon system was formed from two colliding planetary bodies. The book cover pre-Apollo ideas, the conceptual evolution during and subsequent to the Apollo explorations of the Moon, and the development of the Earth-Moon system consensus. A plethora of excerpts from key publications are included to demonstrate the shift in scientific focus over the centuries. Through its comprehensive review of lunar science research and literature, this book shows how new technologies and discoveries catalyzed the community and revolutionized our understanding of the Moons formation. 000914918 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from digital title page (viewed on October 03, 2019). 000914918 651_0 $$aMoon$$xOrigin. 000914918 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aCummings, Warren D.$$tEvolving Theories on the Origin of the Moon$$dCham : Springer,c2019$$z9783030291181 000914918 830_0 $$aHistorical & cultural astronomy. 000914918 852__ $$bebk 000914918 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-29119-8$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000914918 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:914918$$pGLOBAL_SET 000914918 980__ $$aEBOOK 000914918 980__ $$aBIB 000914918 982__ $$aEbook 000914918 983__ $$aOnline 000914918 994__ $$a92$$bISE
