because they dont exzacly no but they hypothesize
The Moon is not a planet, it, as the name suggest, is a moon.It is not geologically active anymore.
Earth is the only geologically active planet among the terrestrial planets. There are some geologically active moons in orbit around the gas giants. Enceladus is quite an interesting moon of Saturn.
Scientists know that the moon was once geologically active because it has features such as volcanic plains, volcanic structures, and lava tubes. These features suggest past volcanic activity and tectonic processes. Additionally, moon rocks collected during the Apollo missions show evidence of volcanic activity.
Earth is geologically active and has wind and water to erode craters. The moon is geologically dead and has no atmosphere and thus no erosion. There is nothing on the moon to destroy impact craters.
Io, the innermost Galilean Moon of Jupiter. Has over 400 active volcanoes.
The lunar 'seas' are flat plains made up of dried volcanic rock which were orignially lava when the moon was geologically active.
Of the four main moons of Jupiter called the Galilean Moons, only two are geologically active. Io is the most clearly geologically active with hundreds of volcanoes that frequently erupt. Europa is the second moon that's geologically active as evidenced by its smooth icy surface suggesting a warm liquid ocean underneath.
The moon Io is considered very active. It is one of Jupiters moons
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.
Yes, one of Jupiter's moons is named Io. It is the innermost of the four Galilean moons and is known for its active volcanism, making it one of the most geologically active bodies in the solar system.
Earth. Why is 1) the moon, 2) rotation rate, 3) liquid core, 4) thin crust.
Scientist knowwhat the moon's crust is made of because the visited the moon's surface before.
