“Galactus was simply another in a long line of super-villains whom we loved creating. …[W]e felt the only way to top ourselves was to come up with an evil-doer who had almost godlike powers. Therefore, the natural choice was sort of a demi-god, but now what would we do with him? We didn’t want to use the tired old cliche about him wanting to conquer the world. There were enough would-be world conquerors in the Marvel Universe and in all the other comic book galaxies. That was when inspiration struck. Why not have him not be a really evil person? After all, a demi-god should be beyond mere good and evil. He’d just be (don’t laugh!) hungry. And the nourishment he’d require is the life force and energy from living planets!”7
What a coincidence!The moon is the perfect size and the perfect distance to block the sun during the day during a total solar eclipse.This allowed us to prove that gravity can bend light rays like Einstein predicted. This advanced our knowledge of the universe immensely.If the moon left us, we would lose tidal action in the oceans and the seas would turn to soup. Fish would die (and so would the people that depend on them for food).It’s like it was put there on purpose. Hmmmm…..
