"Saturn moon found to resemble Earth at life's birth"
Don't let the Velikovskians hear. There is a whole school of Velkovsky followers who think the Earth was once a moon of Saturn. Then it got thrown into it's current orbit around the Sun by a near-collision with Jupiter, which also increased our gravity, killed most of the dinosaurs (the new gravity squished them), and caused the Biblical flood. The last thing they need is encouragement.
