What is the relationship between the moon surface gravity lack of atmosphere and temperature range?
The Moon's gravity causes the lack of atmosphere (any possible atmosphere evaporates out into space in a fairly short time); and the lack of atmosphere causes the extreme temperatures.
How does the moon's lack of an atmosphere affect its temperatures?
The sunny side gets extremely hot. The dark side gets extremely cold.
Which palnet has a surface like the moon?
Mercury has some similarities. Especially, lots of craters. This is due to its lack of atmosphere.Mercury has some similarities. Especially, lots of craters.

How atmosphere or a lack of atmosphere affects the temperatures of Mercury Venus and Mars?
The lack of an atmosphere, on any planet, will stop greenhouse gasses from building up, so the heat won't be trapped causing a cooler climate.
What planet is most covered with craters?
Mercury. It has a lot of craters as the planet has no atmosphere to speak of and therefore no weather. Meteors are allowed to collide with the planet a lot more easily as the lack of atmosphere means that they don't burn or break up, the lack of weather also means that the craters stay put once they are formed, much like on our moon. There are also no active volcanoes to cover matter over the formed craters.
What are some results of the Moon's thin atmosphere?
Our moons lack of atmosphere means that it is a vacuum at the surface, it's like being in space. The lack of atmosphere means that meteors are able to hit the moon without being burnt up by frictional forces. The lack of atmosphere also means that there is no weather, wind or rain.
Is there any water on Mar's moons?
No, there is no evidence of water on Mars' moons, Phobos and Deimos. These moons are small and composed mainly of rock and dust. They lack the necessary conditions, such as an atmosphere or significant gravitational pull, to support liquid water.

How does the lack of an atmosphere in space affect the reflection of starlight?
Because it wants to...and nobody cares. :)
Jovian planets lack moons?
No, they have lots of moons.
What planets lack moons?
Mercury and Venus have no moons.
How does the moon's lack of an atmosphere affect its temperatures?
The sunny side gets extremely hot. The dark side gets extremely cold.
What does mercury and venus lack that the outer planets have?
Moons
How does the lack of atmosphere affect the temperatures on mercury?
Mercury has the thinnest atmosphere so the fast winds from blown up stars go to the thin atmosphere, it will be easier to get in and change the atmosphere
What are reasons why you could not live on Europa?
While it has lots of water, the lack of a breathable atmosphere, lack of surface pressure, and presence of surface temperatures averaging 170 degrees C below zero... you couldn't live on the Europan surface for long. Get below the surface. There is almost no atmosphere on Europa and the surface temperatures average -170C. Therefore the only route for long term human survival would be to get into the potential subsurface ocean and move around in a submarine. While water would be ample and oxygen could be created from that water, the lack of food would quickly become a problem.
