What would the Earth be like without a moon?
There would be little or no tides if Earth had no moon. This means that there could have possibly never even been life on Earth or that life would have developed in a drastically different way because tides and waves have had a great impact on life, biology, and evolution. Also, our days would be a lot shorter because the moon helps to pull us in our circular rotation, and so, without the moon, the Earth would slowly lose momentum and our days would be much longer. It is also hypothesized that there may be no seasons, which would also make the world a worse place for life, because the moon stabilizes Earth’s axis.
