Orbit


How did the moon first come in to Earth’s orbit? Theories abound… and this isn’t one of them.  However, the idea that the moon was having a childish race with another celestial body when it got stuck in our orbit is a novel and entertaining one, given life in this animated short by Francesca Pich.

What in my mind makes this even better is the fact that the moon then sulks for four and a half billion years until… well, you had better watch this to find out what finally lifts the moon’s mood!
