Why is the Moon so similar to Earth? ⚡ экспресс
Original: "Origin of the lunar isotopic crisis from solidification of a stratified lunar magma ocean"
A new theory explains the Moon's chemical resemblance to Earth: in an ocean of molten rock, dense rocks sank and lighter ones rose.

The Moon is almost Earth’s isotopic twin, though it formed from the debris of an alien planet. The riddle solves simply: as the lunar magma ocean solidified, Theia’s heavy rocks sank, while Earth’s lighter ones floated up and hardened on top. So our satellite is just a pretender with an extraterrestrial gut.
🎯 If astronauts drilled deep enough into the Moon, they’d hit a layer with a completely alien chemistry — a real hello from vanished Theia.
🎬 Like in Jules Verne’s ‘Journey to the Center of the Earth,’ the Moon might harbor another world inside — not fictional, but a real shard of a vanished planet.
