00:00our planet has just one moon and while it's pretty important to us controlling our planet's
00:08tides and whatnot have you ever wondered what would happen if we had more than one
00:12many other planets do in fact jupiter has 79 of them but would life change dramatically on earth
00:17if we had more well according to a new study that conducted physics simulations involving
00:21multiple moons over a 3 000 year span maybe not science alert reports that the team analyzed
00:27three different moon sizes ones that were the same size as our current moon some that were around
00:31one sixth the size and some that were roughly one one hundredth the size based on their simulations
00:36the researchers found that earth's skies could hold up to three normal moon-sized uh moons and it
00:42wouldn't cause a catastrophic situation on the ground meanwhile earth could sustain four of the
00:46previously mentioned medium-sized moons and a whopping seven of the tiny moons scientists say
00:51investigating these types of questions further could help them figure out how earth first formed
00:55because knowing how a planet like ours came to be will help in our search for other habitable ones
01:00out there in the universe
