Keep in mind that there is gravity on Earth, however, as well as air resistance. Additionally, since you didn’t specify to ignore air resistance, we’d need the rock’s size in volume and surface area as well as its mass. Also, what of wind speed and direction? Where on Earth did you hit the rock? The distance from the Earth to the moon varies depending on where you are. Rotational inertia would also need to be accounted for. How far is it until you no longer need to account for gravity because the rock has left the atmosphere?
What exactly is the answer you’re looking for given these parameters that would need to be defined?
Np at all. Are you sure you don’t wanna have a convo tho? For a decision as impactful as this one, it would seem that you’d wanna get a lot of input so you can end up making the best and most informed choice. I’d really like to talk at least a little bit with you about it. And hey, if you don’t like what I have to say, then I’ll just be a distant online friend :). I promise I’m not a jerk XD
