What else can I help you with?
Are all craters on the moon?
No. Almost all large solid objects in the solar system have craters.
What is made of volcanic ash cinders and bombs?
Volcanic ash, cinders, and bombs are called tephra.
Are mercury's craters volcanic?
No, mercury's craters are not volcanic. They are formed due to impacts from meteoroids or asteroids hitting the surface of the planet. Volcanic activity on Mercury has been minimal compared to other planetary bodies.
Did volcanic eruptions cause craters on the Moon?
Some were probably volcanic but the craters large enough to be seen with smaller telescopes were almost all made by impacts.
How many eruptions did Craters of the Moon have?
Craters on the moon are not volcanic, they are impact craters.
What are two types of moon craters?
Two types of moon craters are impact craters, formed by asteroids or meteoroids hitting the moon's surface, and volcanic craters, formed by volcanic activity on the moon when magma rises to the surface and erupts.
What types of craters are there?
There are several types of craters, primarily categorized into impact craters and volcanic craters. Impact craters form when a meteorite or asteroid collides with a planetary surface, creating a bowl-shaped depression. Volcanic craters, on the other hand, result from volcanic activity, where magma erupts and leaves a circular depression, such as those found at the summit of a volcano. Additionally, craters can vary in size, shape, and depth depending on their formation processes and the geological characteristics of the surface.
What are some of the causes of craters?
Meteor impact, volcanism, bombs.
How are moon craters similar to volcanic craters?
Not at all. Volcanic craters are formed by volcanic action pushing up the earth's crust and melting out the middle area while spewing debris. Lunar craters are formed when meteorites hit the soft lunar regolith. The regolith is pushed aside explosively and leaves an indentation in the impact site.
What is a volcanic mountain made up of volcanic ash cinders and bombs?
A volcanic mountain made up of volcanic ash, cinders, and bombs is called a Cinder Cone Volcano.
