Our Moon

Yesterday I heard reference to the Moon as being equal to a continent of Earth. Surely its more than a continent? However, the analogy sort of works in terms of it's confused status, rather like that of the continent of Antarctica. I suppose words like colony, annex, oblast, canton or state may one day seem relevent but not yet. The word Moon perhaps says it all. What do you think?

Whilst you ponder this have a listen to Pink Moon by the late great Nick Drake, the fantastically talented brother of UFO's Gabrielle Drake.
