That \"giant impactor\", named Theia, who in Greek mythology was mother to the goddess of the moon, is thought to have been roughly the size of Mars and to have been pulverized in the encounter, along with a good chunk of the proto-Earth. From that fiery cloud of all-Theia and part-Earth, the scenario goes, our moon soon condensed.",
