The leading theory about the formation of Earth's Moon is the Giant Impact Hypothesis. This theory suggests that a Mars-sized body, often referred to as Theia, collided with the early Earth around 4.5 billion years ago. The debris from this massive impact eventually coalesced to form the Moon. This theory is supported by evidence from lunar rock samples and computer simulations of planetary formation.
