The moon has been our friendly neighbour in the sky for billions of years. It has guided us home, kept us on time, protected us, propelled us into space and has even launched dance crazes! It’s hard to fathom what we’d do without it. But for the sake of science, let’s try to envision a moonless world. What would happen to Earth? Would humans still exist?
