@Thekillman Maybe in real life, but not in Naruto. It was stated that the Otsutsuki had lived on the Moon for almost a thousand years and had built an advanced technological civilization on it. They even had plant life and creatures living on it. Only a handful of meteors falling from the Moon were able to cause great destruction across the planet and could have easily destroyed the main villages. One large meteor would have destroyed Konoha and the hokage monument and that meteor was only a small piece of the Moon. It took the combined efforts of Lee and a few other Eight Gate users to destroy half of it and Sasuke destroyed the other half. Can you imagine how large and powerful the actual Moon would be if it hit Earth? Like they said, all life would end. Toneri cutting the Moon in half is leagues above anything Rinnegan Madara ever did. How is cutting a few mountains half anything compared to that? Or even dropping two large meteors? It really isn't.
