What planet contains craters making it look similar to earth's moon?
Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars all have impact craters. Earth's craters are subject to weathering, subduction and orogeny, erasing them from the surface after a time. Mercury is an airless world, geologically inactive, so it has preserved its craters from the beginning of the solar system. Mercury's appearance is most like that of our moon.
