What would happen if the moon blew up?

Id hide under a rock

Well tidal activity would change, probably changing the landscape and the visible land forever. Climate would alter, ecosystems would shift, and the Earth would eventally melt.

If the moon blew up it would be disaterous. I would rather be in a plain because the tides would screw up and if you are under a rock that won't keep the water from you.

I would be in a rock that pretected me from everything and had a popcorn machine

You can have mine. Originally I bought it on impulse. One day I thought "Hey, I could really do with a rock with a popcorn machine in it, in case one day a catastrophic lunar disaster floods the world and simoultaneously rids us of the worlds entire supply of sweet cinema confectionary" and bought one. I've only used it once (that was only to hide from the scary tomcat with one eye that runs the local biker gangs), now it stays in the garage.

The stability of the earth's rotational axis---it always remains nearly 23 degrees---is due partly to the Moon's presence; without it, the Earth's axis would wobble much more violently, so that seasons would be far more severe. [This wobble would occur over thousands to hundreds of thousands of years, but that might have been enough to affect evolution dramatically.] We could even from time to time orbit on our backs like the planet Uranus!

The length of the day might have been much shorter.

There would be greatly reduced ocean tides or tidal reaches so that the development of much of marine life, and certainly the development of Amphibia and the settlement of Dry Land, would have been greatly affected, perhaps prevented.

As for the present, our civilization might find it hard to adapt to a sudden withdrawal of the Moon, but could learn to cope with a slow drifting away---which is in fact occurring at a rate of about 3 cm/year. 😖mart:

The Earth might fire the moon anyways.

Earth: *coughsplutterchoke* WTF? Why am I choking? Lets see here....

*Earth examines himself*

Earth: "What the hell? Where are my f*cking dinosaurs at? What are these little fleshy monkey things with legs? They're royally screwing me over. No wonder I feel like crap.

*Earth feels his top*

Earth: "WTF! My ozone is going bald! Moon! You stupid son-of a *****! You were supposed to make sure that asteroid didn't hit me!"

Moon: "Yeah, did you see the size of that thing? I woulda been toast!"

Earth: "So you let it hit me? Now look at me. I'm coverred in these human things now. I'm f*cking dying. You're fired!"

Moon: "Fine, I'm going over to Jupiter, there's always a party goin' on over there. You suck"

Earth: "No you suck!"

Moon: "No, you suck!"

*Earth shoots Moon with a......er......gun?*

That moon and his shenanigans........ 🙄
