What is a depression in the Moon's surface caused by the impact of an asteroid or meteoroid?
The usual term is crater. Most craters are nearly circular holes surrounded by rims of ejected material. The term "impact basin" is used for the multiple-ringed structures formed by large impacts.
What do you call the holes on the surface of the moon?
These are craters, caused by impacts. Because the moon does not have sufficient gravity to sustain an atmosphere, there is no protective barrier between the moon's surface and random objects in space. Craters will typically have a raised rim, a sloped crater wall leading into the depression and a crater floor that is the base of the depression. The surrounding area of a crater will have material "splashed" onto it from the impact. Larger craters will also have a central peak caused by the kinetic energy of an impacting object melting a portion of the lunar or impacting material.
What object in the night sky is not luminous?
the sun,an artificial satellite,an asteroid,black holes,white holes,worm holes
What are those holes in the moon called?
The holes are called craters. They are the sites of impact of meteors and meteorites. The walls of the holes consist of dust thrown up and out by the impact.

What causes the craters in your moons surface?
The moon looks like a big ball of cheese with holes, these holes are called craters. They are impact craters-the remains of collisions between an asteroid, comet, or meteorite and the Moon. I searched this, and may this help you answer and may God be with you and bless you. ^_^
Does an asteroid have holes in it?
It depends on what asteroid you r talking about.

True or false carters are holes or circles on the surface of the moon?
The circles visible on the surface of the moon are indeed craters made by the impact of bodies from space.

Why does mercury have holes?
Mercury has holes in it because of the impact of larger meteorites hitting into it. These holes are commonly scientifically referred to as impact craters.

What are the holes in knit shirts?
The holes may be button holes, air holes, or holes caused by damage to the shirt.
