    1. http://www.2dplay.com/orbit/orbit.swf* In class we discussed the “capture theory” of the Moon. I said that capture is “dynamically” unlikely. Try this game that simulates the dynamics of an object and try to put the object in orbit around of the planets. It is not so easy. But I mentioned that the moons of Mars are thought to have been captured. Why? More on caputre theory: http://www.windows.ucar.edu/tour/link=/earth/moon/capture_theory.html&edu=elem
