What is a "hang"? I am not aware of any definition that fits the context.

Your run on sentences also leave me confused.

Anyways, I think life has the ability to survive on a fairly large percentage of planets. However, that does not mean they evolved there. And no matter how they got there, it's even less likely they would become copmplex animal life. And even more rare that they would become intelligent life that could leave. I mean come on, if you didn't have a small planet orbiting a big planet, would you be tempted to see what exists between the dirt and the stars? People can talk about the tides or axial stabilization, but I think the biggest role of the moon is to be our first step into space. It's a convenient target. It is the proof that Tantalus is not doomed to his fate eternally.
