1) The Moon is a whopping one-quarter the size of the Earth yet with a weight only 1.2% of the Earth, making it hollow - indeed it rang like a bell when Apollo 12 astronauts sent their lunar module crashing into it in 1969. It later rang for 3hrs when NASA exploded TNT on its surface.
2) The materials of the moon are quite astounding - it has 10 times the amount of Titanium as the Earth and processed metals such as brass. It contains radioactive materials such as Neptunium 237, which is usually created in a nuclear reactor process, and Uranium 236 which is only found in spent nuclear waste - neither is ever found to occur naturally.
3) Its impact craters, although of wide-ranging diameters, are all 10,000-15,000 feet in depth - regardless of the size of the asteroid that hit it. This can only be true if there's some underlying protective metallic layer or something stronger.
4) The moon is disproportionately large - being six times larger than any other known moon to its planet. And all other moons and planets wobble - the moon does not.
5) Unlike other planetary moons it is perfectly symmetrical with some astoundingly precise geometry: for example, the sun is 400 times its size and 400 times further away from the Earth.
6) The distance of the Sun from the Earth is the size of the Sun times 108. Likewise, the distance of the Moon from the Earth is the size of the moon times 108. These exact measurements simply don't happen naturally by chance.
7) The circumference of the Moon, as seen from the Earth, is EXACTLY the same as the sun. Hence it blocks the sun perfectly in an eclipse. The chances of this happening naturally are infinitesimally small.
8) All planetary moons rotate around the equator, whereas the moon rotates at a 5-degree elliptical tilt - enough to create the tides.
9) The moon rotates precisely once as it rotates the earth, meaning there's always only ever one side pointing to the earth - conversely, there's always one side perfectly hidden. Unlike other heavenly bodies, it's as if the moon doesn't spin at all. With its size being 1/4 the size of Earth, you'd expect the gravitational forces to make it spin faster than the Earth.
