All this moon talk is very curious, because I've been led to believe the moon is either:
1) Older than the earth. How or when this postulate entered my brain I haven't a clue, but this is my first memory in regards to the moon.
2) A chunk split from the Earth in it's early stages of formation. 'Tiamet' comes to mind, though I don't remember exactly why. Something Sumerian I think...
Regardless, I love a big moon. Tycho is my favorite.
So it goes.
