  1. [Here’s the original press release here](https://news.arizona.edu/news/moons-biggest-impact-crater-made-radioactive-splash), from the University of Arizona.

    It’s the same article, but without ads nor tracking. It’s a little bit different – there’s a different title, there’s a nice picture of the researcher, and there’s contact info for the media and for the researcher too (because it’s a press release). The picture’s bigger too.

    Phys.org is a content aggregator. They copy free-as-in-beer (like this) and licensed content and they republish it with their own ads, their own tracking, and whatever else. Most of the time, the original article is a better browsing experience.

  2. Just armchairing it. Has anyone done research about Earth having several moons formed during the Moon forming event? If the components of the major Mares matches the rest of the Moon, maybe the smaller ones impacted Luna. It will take some analysis from real samples but it makes sense to me.
