WHY is the moon shrinking?
The moon is shrinking because its core is cooling and contracting. The moon formed about 4.5 billion years ago after a collision with another protoplanet, which created a lot of heat. The moon's core is still molten, causing it to be prone to seismic activity. As the moon cools, it shrinks, and its circumference has decreased by about 50 meters over the last hundreds of millions of years.
