Thank goodness. I was getting worried what Soros would do when he bought up all the precious metals on Earth. Now he can make speculations on astroids.

so.... if the moon formed from ejecta of a collision then does that mean what hit the baby Earth was bigger than the moon or maybe the same size?

One big asteroid was the one that hit Fort Knox. All that gold had a chapel built it over by the natives who now have their warriors guarding it. Be warned! To approach it may mean death to the uninitiated.
