I'd just like to know, is it ever specifically stated on-screen that Mondas and Earth once orbited one another? I know they were near to each other, but THAT near? Could they have just been roughly the same distance from the sun? 82.2.136.93 12:21, August 17, 2011 (UTC) | |||
No, for a while they orbited the sun on opposite sides, 180 degrees separated, a stable Lagrange point.

I'd just like to know, is it ever specifically stated on-screen that Mondas and Earth once orbited one another? I know they were near to each other, but THAT near? Could they have just been roughly the same distance from the sun? 82.2.136.93 12:21, August 17, 2011 (UTC)
No, for a while they orbited the sun on opposite sides, 180 degrees separated, a stable Lagrange point. Boblipton 14:00, August 17, 2011 (UTC)
