Shit is the moon really that big? Here I thought it was only the size of a state ๐Ÿ˜…

Our moon is huge. It's the biggest moon paired with a rocky planet. The 5th biggest moon in the solar system. And the 14th biggest object in the solar system.

[Edit: i was trying to set up a 'not as big as deeznutz' joke but i don't have the enthusiasm to follow through]
