The Moon

The Moon, also called Luna, is a Moon of Earth. It is the 5th largest moon in the solar system and the 2nd largest moon relative to its planet (only behind Charon and Pluto). It is tidally locked to Earth, which means that it's only possible to see one side of the Moon from Earth. The Moon is very cratered due to meteor impacts since it doesn't have an atmosphereActually it has a very very very very very thin and neglidgeble atmosphere..
== History ==
The Moon was formed shortly after the Earth's formation 4.5 billion years ago, when an ancient planet similar in size to Mars named Theia collided with the Early Earth. The subsequent ejecta coagulated together into The Moon.
In 1969, humans landed on The Moon for the first time, marking the end of the Space Race between the USA and the USSR and starting a new Space Age. It is planned by NASA, the space agency of the USA, that a new crew will be visiting the Moon in 2025.
