Has erosion created large numbers of valleys on the surface of the moon?
have erosion created large numbers of valleys on the surface of the moon? Yes and no a meter hit it and after shocks happened
Is there erosion on the moon?
Not as you are used to on Earth surface. Erosion is caused mainly by water and air movement, which do not exist on the Moon's surface. However, seismic activity and impacts from asteroids may cause effects not dissimilar to erosion.
What is the surfuce of the moon like?
The surface of the moon has things like: Craters , Lava plains , Mountains and Valleys.
What causes erosion on the moon surface?
Meteorite and asteroid impacts would cause erosion of the moon's surface. Man will also have had an almost minuscule impact as well due to the moon landings although this will be so tiny as to be virtually unmeasurable!
What caused the erosion of rocks on the Moon's surface?
impact of particles from space (i.e. asteroids)

Are there valleys on the surface of the moon?
yes
What processes create surface features on moon?
Asteroids and gravity create the surface features on the moon.

Does the moon have hills?
it has craters which are big indents which create valleys and hills

How does weathering and erosion change moons surface?
Because the moon has neither liquid water or an atmosphere on its surface, there is very little weathering or erosion. Any weathering or erosion that does place is caused by repeated meteorite impacts, which break up and scatter the rocks and dust on the Moon's surface.
Does the moon have valleys?
No, but it does have deep/large creators. Valleys are created by glaciers and a geologically active crust, neither of which the Moon has. Creators from meteor and comet impacts make up the majority of the Moon's surface features.
What causes erosion on the moon surface?

What do valleys on the surface of a planet or moon suggest about previous land features?
The preses of water
Your moon has no atmosphere suggest how this effects the changes on the surface of the moon?
The moon does not have an atmosphere. This affects the changes on the surface because there is no wind action to cause dunes or wind erosion.
What processes created surface features on the moon?
Asteroids and gravity create the surface features on the moon.
