It's bad enough when some bad guy tries to put his John Hancock on the Moon; things get really serious when it's destroyed. This happens in many continuities in many shows many times. Think of an Earth-Shattering Kaboom, only on the Moon. A sister trope to Deface of the Moon. Compare with Grasp the Sun for a symbolic use of celestial bodies. Expect there to be No Endor Holocaust (unless rabbits live there). If the destruction of the moon does result in serious damage to Earth or nearby planets it may overlap with Colony Drop, especially if done on purpose. Complete destruction is optional: Sometimes it can turn the moon into a Shattered World instead, or make it crescent-shaped. Something that is only occasionally referenced is that a satellite body does affect the surface of the parent object. Destroying or otherwise removing the Moon from its orbit would cause serious trouble even without debris impacts: no tides would massively disrupt coastal ecosystems, while the loss of the constant effect of water being pulled toward the equator would lead to flooding of temperate coasts, tropical reefs and lagoons left high and dry, and insufficient depth in ports near the equator. Further, moonlight is important to the life cycles of various nocturnal and crepuscular animals, and actually has a nontrivial effect on the thermal equilibrium, such that the loss of moonlight would make Earth slightly colder (though that might actually help by offsetting climate change). The title is punning on the 1950 SF classic Destination Moon. |

In hololive - Holo no Graffiti, the episode "Fly Me to the Moon" starts off with Botan Shishiron throwing Watame Tsunomaki through the office window and onto the street, with Watame sailing for 88m. Next up is Noel Shirogane, who throws Marine Houshou through the wall into the next building, but only scoring 80m. The last contestants are Aname Kanata spinning Haachama with enough force to throw her through the ceiling, through the stratosphere, into the moon, and out the other side, with Haachama no worse for wear. The final distance is 384,400 km. | |

Megas XLR: Coop once blew up part of the moon "Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Coop", which caused major climate change (a subversion of No Endor Holocaust). When asked if he was concerned about this, he replied, "What does that have to do with bubblegum ice cream?" Kiva made him fix it in the credits. The episode basically told you from the start what was going to happen: in Kiva's time, the moon has a lot less mass. | |

Empire from the Ashes: Technically happens over 50,000 years before the beginning of the main plot, as standard Fourth Imperium military practice was to disguise their Planet Spaceships as appropriately-sized moons when in systems they didn't control. As a result, Dahak has spent all that time disguised as the Moon. The first book ends with the disguise being dropped, but a gravity generator is left behind at Earth so the planet still has tides. | |

According to the Books of Sorrow, Xivu Arath once achieved a Mutual Kill against her brother Oryx by blowing up the war moon they both were on after he killed her. They got better, as Hive gods do, and the experience taught Oryx a valuable lesson about how to protect himself from Earth Shattering Kabooms in general, which later helped him destroy the Ecumene (which did a lot of that trying to kill him). | |

After she got the hang of villainy, she decides to step up her game by rigging the moon to explode. Cyborg, Raven, and Beast Boy, still unconvinced that Starfire is even capable of evil, laugh at her seemingly ridiculous claim. Cut to the surface of the moon where sticks of dynamite are embedded everywhere and all connected to a countdown device that looks suspiciously like a toaster. Once the timer reaches zero...it pops out toast...then blows up the moon. | |

In Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, Anti-Spiral uses the moon to attempt to destroy the earth, causing the Gurren Brigade to attempt to destroy the moon. Notable in that the otherwise VERY soft sci-fi makes it abundantly clear that the approach of the moon and its removal would have a negative effect on the planet (In the end, the descent can be stopped and the moon is revealed to be a giant spacecraft named "Cathedral Terra". The spacecraft is repossessed by the heroes and the real moon is pulled out of a Pocket Dimension to avoid damage to the Earth). | |

In Mr. Show, America inexplicably decides to blow up the moon and is met with huge approval, with people writing patriotic country songs and throwing parties in honor of the event. When Galileo, the monkey assigned to push the launch button, asks (via sign language) why they're doing it, America erupts into outrage, until Galileo is fired and replaced with Mr. Wiggles, a monkey that doesn't know sign language. NASA goes ahead with the destruction of the moon, and they do it during a full moon so they know they got it all. | |

RWBY: Remnant's moon is mysteriously half-shattered, leaking a dense field of debris. Oddly, most of the debris seems to stay in the same relative position, with the moon looking like it was just shattered for thousands of years. The moon also rotates, resulting in periods where the debris field faces away from Remnant and making the moon seem whole. One of humanity's theories is a fairy tale called The Gift of the Moon that claims it's really the sun, which humanity accidentally broke. After building a new fake sun made of glass, the weakened original sun was relegated to lighting the night sky as the moon. In truth, long ago ancient humanity was destroyed when Salem rebelled against the gods. Abandoning Remnant and Salem, the God of Darkness smashed the moon as a warning against disrespecting gods while the God of Light resurrected Salem's dead lover, Ozma, to guide a reborn humanity to redemption. Salem's refusal to acknowledge the moon's warning and Ozma's inability to ignore it has locked them into a Forever War for the fate of humanity. |

Dragon Ball: Master Roshi blows up the moon in Dragon Ball to stop Great Ape Goku's rampage since the Great Ape form is powered by the moon. He gets yelled at afterwards, but Kami restores it some years later on the condition that Goku has his tail (which causes him to transform into a Great Ape when he looks at the full moon) removed. Likewise, Piccolo destroys the moon in Dragon Ball Z to stop Gohan rampaging as a Great Ape. However, it's shown to have been restored once more in Dragon Ball Super. Dragon Ball Z Abridged parodies Piccolo's moon destruction via a news report detailing an estimated death toll of over 100 million due to the lack of moon to regulate the tides, not to mention all waterbenders losing their power and Sailor Moon being in horrible agony. |

The fourth installment of the Don't Escape series, 4 Days to Survive, takes place in a world where a lunar drilling project gone wrong has caused the Moon to explode. This had understandably devastating effects on the planet, from magnetic fields going haywire to extreme weather to all of Earth becoming a wasteland. As the title implies, you have four days before what remains of the Moon falls down and wipes out all remaining life on Earth. | |

The moon gets destroyed in the "Five Years Later" period of Legion of Super-Heroes. This was due to the events of Time and Time Again where Superman got stranded in this era. He and the Legion are able to stop the initial countdown, but the Big Bad of the storyline realizes this is the only way to send Superman back to his original time and resumes the countdown. In this case there is an Endor Holocaust, with lunar fragments being a serious threat to Earth for some time afterwards (until Earth got destroyed as well). | |

The Moon in Assassination Classroom is always a crescent, with the overly long horns nearly touching each other. It's as if someone's taken out a large chunk of it because it is; Koro-sensei blew up 70% of the moon in the beginning, making it a permanent crescent. Later, it's revealed that he didn't actually blow up the moon (it was a lab rat experiment gone wrong), but he decided to take the blame and appropriate it for himself anyway to hide the truth behind his origins. In the epilogue, the crescent Moon collapses due to gravity and becomes closer to Earth, eventually reforming into its regular size and shape prior to the explosion. | |

In Touhou Soccer, one of Youmu Konpaku's better shots has her completely ignore the ball, fly up into the air, and to one side of the moon. She then slices the Japanese characters for her shot into the moon, and then SLICE IT IN HALF. Explosion and everything. She then apparently remembers the ball and comes down and whacks the ball with her sword. The soccer ball, to its credit, handles a slash that cleaved the moon in two very well, as it may well be Made of Indestructium. | |

She promises to fix it and, sure enough, the epilogue chapters reveal that as an adult, she's working on a project to create an artificial moon to take its place. | |

In the background of Cowboy Bebop, the moon was massively damaged◊ by a gate research accident occurred 75 years before the series started, killing the bulk of humanity and driving most of the rest to colonize the Solar System. Earth itself is largely a wasteland now: The initial shockwave devastated the portion of Earth facing the moon, and debris continues to rain down on the damaged landscape. Meteor showers are treated like a weather event by the survivors who live in underground cities. The surface can't even be mapped due to the constant creation of new impact craters. | |

In Incarceron, it's mentioned that the Years of Rage have taken their toll on the Moon. It still appears to be in orbit, but its innards have been hollowed and its face is pockmarked, effectively killing the tides. | |

Happens in Gundam Build Fighters Try when Sekai uses an attack so powerful that it straight up splits the moon in half... even if he used it on Earth. Of course, the moon in this case is a virtual moon generated by the system used for Gunpla battles, it still serves to highlight Sekai's potential as a Gunpla fighter. | |

Homestuck: Jack Noir does this to Prospit's (inhabited) moon. Technically, he only broke the chain connecting it to Prospit and crashed it into Skaia, but the idea is the same. Later on, B2 Jack and Her Imperious Condescension play this straight on the moons of B2!Prospit and B2!Derse, with a Breath Weapon and Eye Beams respectively. Their reasons are different, but they somehow pull this off at the same time. |

One could infer this was due to the Klingon's having studied the Narada from the previous film during the 25 years they held Nero and his crew prisoner. Presumably, by studying the technology of the mining ship, the Klingons inadvertently accelerated the accident that lead to the destruction of the moon in the Prime-verse, which was caused by over-mining. | |

In Sonic Adventure 2, Eggman blows up half of the moon with the Eclipse Cannon to show the world he's not messing around when he announces he's conquering the world. The laser blows off part of the moon, revealing a molten core and apparently having no influence on the planet's oceans. Despite this, the moon appears perfectly fine in every subsequent game (including one where the final battle happens on the surface). Word of God claims that the Moon is still broken; it's just always facing the other way when we see it (the moon's rotation doesn't work like that in real life, but this was a pretty big moon, so maybe this one does). | |

Later, a Martian ship nukes Protomolecule-infested Phoebe into rubble and sends the rubble on a course into Saturn. In Persepolis Rising, one of the strongholds the Heart of the Tempest destroys while single-handedly conquering Sol is the asteroid Pallas, the third-largest in the Asteroid Belt, and home to thousands of Belters. |

Part of the backstory of how the Skirineen got punched out of their galatic dominance in the DEADLOCK series is that they attempted to frighten the Humans into submission by blowing up part of the moon and leaving Earth with a new ring system. This backfired horribly for them as it instead infuriated Humans into a berserker frenzy and led to a fierce counterattack, turning the tide of the war against them alongside the other known space-capable species and ultimately pushing them back. | |

In The Last: Naruto the Movie, the final battle takes place on the surface of the moon, which is falling slowly towards Earth (and most of the film took place inside it, as it's a Hollow World). During the battle, Naruto's opponent Toneri unleashes the power of his Tenseigan, cutting the moon in half. It's mostly subverted, though, as rather than shattering or falling apart, the moon somehow manages to hold together. Which actually makes sense; simply cutting the moon in half without doing any other damage would leave the two halves' mass unchanged and thus gravity would pull them back together. | |

Avatar: The Last Airbender: In the first season finale, Zhao kidnaps and then kills the moon spirit to rob the waterbenders of their power. It's not clear if the moon was physically destroyed/wiped from existence, but at the very least he got it to stop reflecting light. Somewhat averts No Endor Holocaust in that they make it clear the moon's death would be disastrous to the whole world. As it stands, however, all it did was force a Heroic Sacrifice to fix the moon and create one very pissed off ocean spirit kaiju. | |

In a What If? story about the Avengers' enemy Korvac, Korvac and the Stranger become involved in a shoving match, with the moon itself as the object being shoved. The moon, behaving at least somewhat according to the laws of physics, gets ripped to shreds by tidal forces and forms a debris ring around the Earth. There is No Endor Holocaust, but it doesn't matter because Korvac ends the universe with the Ultimate Nullifier. | |

Krypton's principal moon, Wegthor, had their first space colony — until scientist Jax-Ur's nuclear missile missed the meteor he was aiming at. |

Sonic the Hedgehog: In Sonic Adventure 2, Eggman blows up half of the moon with the Eclipse Cannon to show the world he's not messing around when he announces he's conquering the world. The laser blows off part of the moon, revealing a molten core and apparently having no influence on the planet's oceans. Despite this, the moon appears perfectly fine in every subsequent game (including one where the final battle happens on the surface). Word of God claims that the Moon is still broken; it's just always facing the other way when we see it (the moon's rotation doesn't work like that in real life, but this was a pretty big moon, so maybe this one does). In Sonic Frontiers, Super Sonic and Sage team up to defeat The End, which takes the form of a giant purple moon. Word of God is that its Appearance Is in the Eye of the Beholder, and the purple moon is merely what we, the player, perceive it as, while Sonic and Sage each perceive it as something else entirely. While Sonic is able to damage it significantly, it takes an Heroic Sacrifice from Sage to completely destroy it. |

Thundarr the Barbarian: In the Opening Narration a rogue planet passes between the Earth and the Moon, and its gravitational field cracks the latter in half, like a walnut.

In Star Trek Into Darkness, one of the moons of the Klingon homeworld (Praxis) has apparently blown up; interestingly, in this timeline, this seems to have happened 30 years before the event in the Prime universe, where it was a major plot point in Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country and was the event that paved the way for the end of formal hostilities between the Federation and the Klingon Empire in the TNG-era. One could infer this was due to the Klingon's having studied the Narada from the previous film during the 25 years they held Nero and his crew prisoner. Presumably, by studying the technology of the mining ship, the Klingons inadvertently accelerated the accident that lead to the destruction of the moon in the Prime-verse, which was caused by over-mining. A tie-in comic shows that the Big Bad of the movie was responsible. While being a brainwashed operative of Section 31, he came up with the plan of placing a bomb on the moon to destroy it, thus weakening the Klingon empire. |

In Rogue Trip you can use a teleporter on the flying saucer level to warp to the moon.

Doctor Who discusses this extensively in the episode "Kill the Moon". Strange happenings on the Moon (fault lines enlarging, a sudden but inexplicable increase in mass, and resulting disastrous effects on Earth tides) causes humanity to launch a mission to blow up the Moon with a bunch of nukes. By the end of the episode, they discover that the Moon is actually an egg that's about to hatch, and they subvert the trope by stopping the countdown at the last second. Then played with even further — the newborn... thing... immediately lays a new Moon-egg, which explains why we still have a moon in episodes that take place further into the future. | |

A version of this happens in The Legend of Dragoon after destroying the final boss, although it technically isn't a moon, It's the unborn god of destruction.

In Yu-Gi-Oh!, Yugi has one of his monsters stab the moon to destroy it. Yes, it was a moon generated by another card and not the actual moon, but it still has the tide-changing effects...and it wasn't a monster card so he shouldn't have been able to attack it.note At the time, the real-life Yu-Gi-Oh! card game hadn't been invented yet, and the creators hadn't bothered to establish a coherent set of rules for the fictional version. For the next story arc, at which point the real card game had been established, they began using a modified version of the real-life rules. There is now a real-life card that references this scene - and allows a player to reenact it in the right circumstances. |

Likewise, Piccolo destroys the moon in Dragon Ball Z to stop Gohan rampaging as a Great Ape. However, it's shown to have been restored once more in Dragon Ball Super. Dragon Ball Z Abridged parodies Piccolo's moon destruction via a news report detailing an estimated death toll of over 100 million due to the lack of moon to regulate the tides, not to mention all waterbenders losing their power and Sailor Moon being in horrible agony. |

The Fantastic Four storyline Reckoning War kicks off with the Moon being destroyed. The heroes believe that the invading Badoon is the cause of this. The FF end up discovering this wasn't the case, that it was the Reckoners who attacked the Moon, trying to stop Uatu from warning his race of their arrival. | |

The Time Machine (2002) features a sub-plot about colonizing the moon in the 2030s which goes horribly wrong and ends up with the moon being blown to pieces. Some genius decided that using nuclear weapons to dig caverns beneath the surface was a good idea. It causes a bit of an armageddon. The moon's still there but much closer to earth and totally fractured. Bits and pieces have settled into orbit or hit the Earth. When the time traveler later emerges in 802701, the smaller chunks of the moon have been pulled apart and stretched into a mini-asteroid belt. | |

Aldnoah.Zero had this happen to the Earth in the middle of a war between Earth and Mars. A gate on the Moon that allowed travel to Mars (sparking a colonization effort that later declared independence with then led to war) exploded, destroying half the moon and sending large numbers of shards raining down on Earth, killing millions and drastically altering the landscape, as well as leaving a ring of asteroids in Earth's orbit. This event is known in the show as Heaven's Fall. | |

The Moon inexplicably combusts in Amazon Women on the Moon, with a small piece continuing to dangle from a wire, after the first astronauts to visit it incur the wrath of the Amazons living there. | |

Deserves special mention in City of Heroes, cause while most examples on the video-game list are just creative licensing to show power, in City of Heroes Big Bad Lord Recluse actually does it. No-name villain Darrin Wade kills Big Good Statesman then flies to the moon to become a god, Lord Recluse's retort: He launches one of his nuclear warheads at the moon then takes a rocket up there to finish the job himself. Scary part is he has more of those warheads and nothing left to lose... | |

In Hc Svnt Dracones Deimos was accidentally eaten by MarsCo's orbital construction Geomats, the computers had labelled it "flotsam" and no one caught it until it was too late. They constructed a BlueSky station in memoriam of the small moon in the wake of the PR disaster, but many still wonder if it was really an accident. Earth's moon, on the other hand, was the site of an observation base keeping an eye on the new ecosystem developing on the planet that had been nuked to sterilization a few centuries earlier, then one of the expeditions brought something back and the entire rock is covered with what looks like crystallized blood. | |
