Question

It is hypothesized that Venus suffered an impact much like that of Earth and Theia resulting in the formation of our moon. What evidence can support this theory? Why might the impact on Venus not generate a moon as in the case of Earth?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

A moon that formed around Venus by this process would have been unlikely to escape. If such a moon-forming event had occurred there, a possible explanation of why the planet does not have such a moon might be that a second collision occurred that countered the angular momentum from the first impact.
