Considering the research and discoveries of space scientists, the answer to your question isn't very hard, because discoveries today tell us that not only isn't such a phenomenon possible, but it also actually has taken place various times regarding celestial bodies other than the moon.

NASA has confirmed the splitting of the moon and its coming back together again.  The official website of Al-Watan, printed in the US, has quoted a Jordanian space scientist saying that The Clementine, an American space probe orbiting the moon for some years now has reached the conclusion that the moon was split and came together again hundreds of years ago.  This scientist has presented a report to NASA explaining to them how the Muslims believe that this phenomenon belongs to 1400 hundred years ago and that it is a miracle of their prophet (pbuh).  NASA is yet to discover the cause for it, because it is a unique incident that doesn’t happen often.
