redirect
The content of this article is more or less a straight copy and paste from the main article. There doesn't seem a whole lot of point in doing that, so I've changed it back to a redirect. When so little is known about the moon anyway, it makes much more sense to discuss it in the main article.
- Natural satellites deserve own articles, but since there is so little information available (there's even been rumors that it isn't real after all), keeping the article only a redirect is justified.--Jyril 12:16, 6 May 2006 (UTC)
