A.
According to the capture theory, Earth’s gravitational force “captured” the Moon as it passed close to our planet, locking it into our orbit.

C.
For example, it is highly unlikely that Earth could smoothly capture another large body in its orbit without sustaining any impact from that body.
D.
The Moon is also similar to Earth in its ratio of titanium and oxygen isotopes, which is unexplainable using the capture theory.
