Researchers say that the findings allow for one of two possibilities: the moon is 200 million years younger than previously thought, or the theory that the moon used to be a molten ocean is wrong."

Please, no "that's no moon" jokes this time. It's getting old. Not as old as previously thought, but still damn old.

That's not the only thing...

Yeah, it actually took two attempts to adjust his aim. That's where the dinosaurs went.
